It’s time for the Dems and Libs to stop fighting in the back seat. Mother Corona is now driving the car. For the first time since WWII, America has a common enemy that affects everyone, and not just a class of people. Mother Nature (the virus) has come to restore balance.
There can only be One America. The Civil War decided that. But this external civil war of the yolk evolved into a mental war. The exterior world is One. We all shop at the same Walmart, but the internal world, our own minds are still fighting the civil war.
We can see now as we wake up from the dream of a bi-polar world how silly it is. Blaming each other is absurd when a common enemy is approaching. Trying to find out who shot the arrow before you pull it out is absurd.
That is why death is the great unifier. Death does not play politics.
When something rises at home, like whether you go to a movie or stay home, or what the name of that movie star is, the event does not (I hope) polarize into a Left and Right Eye.
But when something rises on the Media, our Eye into the world, it immediately polarizes through our bi-polar lens.Each eye or viewpoint gets its meaning by not being the other viewpoint.
The Other defines us. Each of us says I am not That, I exist because I’m not that, and conflict with That creates validation of my polorized idenity.
Corona has changed that. Corona, althought we are trying to polorize it into political terms— blaming Obama or Trump, or China or whatver—
the bi-poloarism cannot hold. Blaming does not stop Corona. Corona is not a Red or Blue virus, or foreign. Corona is Corona.
Corona is the One that is two (red and blue)

Before Corona, the Red and the Blue were the Two fighting to be the One. The viewpoint of the Two that define themselves by not being the Other has shifted to the Two being the One at war with the One that is the Other of the Two.
