Letter to Editor: Is this Just a Plea from the Wilderness to Talk to Each Other?

October 13, 2025 by Letter to Editor Leave a Comment

I have been posting on Facebook for over a year now about my fear that the political polarization in the US is destroying our sense of community and is making it impossible to govern effectively. I fear we are headed for chaos, if not outright civil war, if we can’t talk to each other.
I get a few thumbs up, but mostly replies that seem to like the current state of affairs. Demonizing the other side and rejecting the idea that we can solve our problems through rational, civil discussion.
Remember that it’s only a matter of time before that slim majority swings the other way. Then what?
The Western world is facing catastrophic debt, national and international digital IDs, and seeing the results of unfettered immigration that was abetted by globalist-backed NGOs. Does anybody still believe all these problems are unrelated and not choreographed?
Division is being sown by globalists who know they can’t take over as long as there is a strong and united USA. Look at the list of World Economic Forum members to see their powerful influence on what we read, hear, and see. To foster division is to play right into their hands.
I’m not interested in posts that say talking problems out won’t work.  I want to hear from people on both sides of the aisle who believe it can work and have ideas about how to make it work. Or that have other solutions that don’t perpetuate division.  Is there not a silent majority who don’t make its voice heard? If so, why don’t you speak up? Is it the expected onslaught of negativity? Something else? Aren’t there millions of moderates on both sides who see that this polarization is killing our Country?
Or am I just pleading in the wilderness?
