Mental breakthrough on current left/right tribalism in the U.S
The left has been corrupted by purity culture. If your view, means to an end, etc has not been approved by The Left Regime (or you are not well versed on dozens of leftist philosophers and the latest theories, you’re out!). Also why it’s so hard to get them to engage on bitcoin, because it’s not what their tribe uses, it’s right wing money (according to them)
The right has been overtaken by Trump and a party of valueless debauchery. Conservatives/republicans used to be values driven with actually policy and ideas, which I could agree or disagree with. Now it’s just complete chaos fueled and led by Trump, who has no political philosophy or value system, just ego.
Tribalism sucks. Welcome to my Ted Talk.
