Our current Civil War - part 2

4 teams, not 2

There are Teams Red and Blue, and two more.  I am not in a position to know exactly who comprises the 3rd, “Divide and conquer” team, but I know without doubt that there is one.  Some people believe outside influences are to blame..  Soviets and China and probably others have had spies seeking to infiltrate and disrupt our country, for decades, just as our tax dollars pay for US “assets” to do the same.

How much of a role and exactly how they are participating is something I don’t expect to know, but we do know that they play a role - and as we grow weaker, they stand to gain.

Others trace the roots of division back through media and politicians to those with the money and power to wield a strong influence - the WEF, Gates, Soros, the Obamas, and other people like them.  We may never know who all is stirring the pot, the various actors and their alliances, or what exactly their objectives are.  But it is undeniable that these individuals do exist, that they seek influence and have the money and power to put it into action.  While we are distracted and fighting each other, they have a frictionless path to whatever their ends may be.

The 4th team is our Team - we see the battles, we feel their impact, we see the possibilities of where the Dividers can take us, and we know we want something better.

We want what our founders envisioned and set in place:  the freedom to be fully human - creative, uncensored, to solve problems, to make things continually better, to talk openly about our failures, to learn, to love, to gain a deeper understanding by listening to others’ experiences.  To live and let live.

When we anchor in our values, we have the power to shift the battlefront, from Red vs Blue to Uniters vs Dividers.

Stay tuned for Part 3, where I share some ideas for Team Uniters.
