  • I think that the primitive  human instinct to see 'us and them' is dangerous and arch manipulators of this propensity towards tribalism can be very dangerous indeed. I am thinking of people like Hitler, Trump and Farage.

  • The left are playing exactly the same game, just many seem blind to it. They also seem surprised when it is done back to them 

  • All political parties exist by othering the others, it dosen't matter whether they're right or left wing or even centre parties.

    As I feel very different from most peope on here, I feel that I'm often alone here too, I dont feel part of somekind of autustic umbrella, or if I am then I'm definately on the edge catching the drips. Here feels like any other group I've been involved in, I'm not part of its mainstream and I'm unwilling to try and make myself "fit in". I often feel I'm to weird for the weirdos!
