A critique of the 'Divided America' Trope
  • In Canada we get a lot of similar discourse around division. Usually it is convincing folks that "the Liberals hate you and want to make your life hard and think you are the worst and are diving the country". If you don't actually engage constructively with the other side of the political spectrum, it is easy to be convinced that you are are some kind of victim. The so-called division is being whipped up by the very elements that decry it.

  • Andrew Tate charged with rape and human trafficking
  • This is barely related, but the other day I was at a local park and a big group of kids were singing some counting game. It was a "one, two, buckle my shoe" thing. I was surprised when they screamed, "seven, eight, Andrew Tate". I'm sure they have no idea who Andrew Tate is, but it was crazy to me that he had made his way into culture that way.
