Was it, though? Pretty sure our independence was a bunch of bureaucrats talking about the pros and cons of who was going to pay for defense and railways. Maybe I don't know our own history... but was there any blood to separate from the English? I think the only blood I know of was the blood to stay out of American hands.

Yes, the key to overcoming this is to unify and organize and support each other and educate each other and understand each other. They divide us and turn us against each other because it weakens us. They surround us with right-wing and woke and climate change and nationalist powderkegs primed to explode, to make it difficult to talk openly to one another, to make people afraid of sensitive topics, because it makes it difficult to organize and makes it easy to pick out the organizers. We are not our politics, our politics do not define us, they may mark us ignorant, but who made us that way? Being ignorant is not what makes someone worthy of life or not, it is not half of us against the other half. It is all of us against the people pulling the strings, making the decisions, creating the situations that we have been raised in, and hoarding the wealth. No war but class war.
