re: #12 Belafon

I personally think we’re in a cold civil war right now, especially with 40% of the county either hoping we get a fascists-religious state or not caring if we do. I think we’re going to win ultimately, but we’re going to have setbacks. And, like in any war, sometimes people on your side do something that requires you to remove them from their job (think MacArthur and Korea). But there’s more than just that one person.

Most of American history could be described as a cold civil war. We typically don’t think of history as dynamic events and competing parties/ideologies, but through out our history we have had nasty politics. It typically revolved around race generally, and ensuring that all people had the protections of the constitution and the promises of the declaration.
