E Pluribus Unum; one of our Nation’s mottos meaning “Out of Many, One”. We started out as a nation of immigrants from various lands, ethnicities, and social norms – the “Many”. As has been stated over our history by multitudes of people stated bazillion times, our nation is unlike any other in that we were not founded on a geographical location and a set of people but by political/philosophical ideas that were to unite us as well – the “One”.
Sadly, during the last century (and accelerating during this one), we are dividing ourselves back to the many – the Left is accomplishing a Balkanization of America by creating one small “special set” of people after another. Sounding grand, trying to right past wrongs, the notion of “protected classes” of people by attributes (nationality, ethnicity, skin color, age, sexuality, identity, and race among others) is now being used as a tool to separate us all.
The tribalism that existed in the “Old Countries” from where we came from is now being brought back to haunt us socially. The Left is now using those artificial differences to set ourselves against each other.
