Behaviour on both sides cannot be dismissed. So many nuts on this 'woke for the wrong reasons' 'woke for the right reasons' are dominating what we see in the media.

We need a middle ground, we need a discourse, we need to find mutual grounds. We need an understanding, no shouting, no 'you're wrong im right' etc. But none of that sells. So all we really see is extremes from both sides because it sells, unfortunately.

…’divisiveness’ is a tactic as well, though…because I don’t believe that we have very much integrity in our political figures and political leadership to admire…divisiveness helps to detract and turn the attention away from public scrutiny….
