The French had cohesion at the time of the revolution, now it’s divided. Each side has a puppet boogeyman, for the right it’s CNN, for the left it’s Fox News. Kill the boogeymen, then it’ll start crumbling down. With the puppets, you stop paying attention to what the other hand is doing and focus on the news agencies. Without the puppets, we eventually realize to get mad enough.

The people are loyal to a fault to politicians (which they defend and treat like celebrities), they keep voting for the bloods and crips expecting change.

Exactly, the best we can do is avoid idolization of someone whose entire job is to cover our best interests. Yet continually seem to cover their own.
