Conservatives are crippling their own citizens, for what? Only reasonable explanation is following Putin's orders to weaken America

Have you considered that it's a fascist death cult? Germany also crippled itself.

Right-extremism really has much of a cult. Too bad it has to be such an effort to not let the mind to be exploited.

My pet theory is, since human lived in groups of 100 - 150 people most of it's evolution, and vertical organization works there, that it is our instinct to organise us that way by default. But that doesn't scale well to states, thus the warring city states all of antiquity and medieval times.

Maybe we should build fallback mechanisms in our governments, to avoid the no-effort fallback (faschism) happening?
