We the People have become addicted to bashing the other side.
You know the feeling; someone voices an opinion different from yours and your anxiety rises. Your body's natural stress response kicks in and it's "Fight or Flight". If this were to occur occasionally, your body's response and brain-chemistry would quickly return to normal. But this isn't happening occasionally - it has been repeated hourly, day after day, for the past 20 years. Your body and brain-chemistry has not had time to return to normal, so now you have a "new normal" state.
Believe it or not, you've become addicted not to your opinion, but to one that's been pounded into your head day after day.
We the People are being attacked, but not by each other. Our attackers have studied the science behind emotional addiction and desires. Our attackers must keep us distracted by feeding our addiction with repeated droning of their message.
We the People are not the problem.
