A new era?

Hardly. I don't see that happening until we see some sort of signifigant change in real-world politics. This type of change would, you'd think, require everyone to stop "taking sides" for just a moment and actually involve themselves in some real talk. Throw "talking points" and sloganesque dialogue out the window and actually TALK about a few things. But the back & forth you see above is usually what we get here. As in the real world, substance just doesn't matter anymore. It does not get addressed; it gets avoided and made fun of. It is much more satisfying to simly be on a team, and to do and say whatever they do and say.

It gets worse every day. It has long since passed the point of no return. A new ara of political thinking (on a mass scale) is going to need a new era of people to make it happen. Because the current bunch seem content on floating dead in the water, while watching all the ships sail by.
