 Of course we're not enemies. We just people navigating this world, hopefully leaving it a slightly better place than before we arrived.

Many of us on the sidelines quietly hope one of these 'leaders' will eventually do right by the people. Tyranny, whether in the form of communism or fascism, is the real danger we should look out for. The trap is becoming the very thing we fight against by adopting ideals that demonise one side or another, rather than doing our best to remain objective and skeptical.

The darker side of the game is what most people deem a conspiracy. There needs to be a balance in society, and the more governments (and by extension, globalists) intervene, the more unnatural, chaotic and destabilised a society will become. The problem with L v R politics is that the pendulum will swing hard in the other direction, and those who are too entrenched within the system tend to behave the same way as their opposition once the reigns of power are handed over. It's cyclical, it's dangerous for everyone, and it will keep repeating until people snap out of it. This guy sums it up nicely.
