Why I Believe the Extreme Left & Extreme Right are Similar
This will be more of a rant and I may end up jumping around a lot so forgive me but in my opinion there really is not much difference between the extreme left and the extreme right in the way they vilify anyone that disagrees with them and their authoritarian nature. Sure they have separate agendas but they go about forcing their agendas in the same way as well as accuse the other side of doing what they do. Both sides think they are right and the other side is evil and as you read this and you think I am pointing to a particular ideology than I am actually talking about you. I may talk a bit about Republicans and Democrats though. Remember, Republicans have no heart and Democrats have no brain.

A Message of Unity in Modern Political Division Across the United States, the country is divided by political views and beliefs. The level of division that currently exists in 2023, in fact, has not been seen in many decades, maybe even centuries.

Colorado Removes Trump from Ballad
For those who may have missed the news, a story was reported on by Newsmax telling how the state of Colorado has removed Donald Trump from the ballot for the 2024 Presidential election1. Not surprising since only 40% or so of the state is Republican. At least for now. This may increase that number.
