Our society has very serious fundamental problems.
- Most politicians of both political parties divide us because enraged voters are more likely to vote, more likely to contribute money, and more likely to attempt to influence other voters.
- The media amplifies the divide because it means more eyeballs, which means more money for advertising.
- Some non-profits also divide us because it leads to more donations.
- Educational institutions teach people to see themselves as victims and often teach diversity backwards, emphasizing superficial differences (~identity politics), then indicating that people should get along instead of teaching our similar goals and motivations and pointing out that we can achieve our goals better with input from people with diverse experiences. They trap inner-city students in inadequate educational institutions.
- Few people do much to correct this situation. They continue to support culpable politicians without protest; they engage in the media; and they continue to support their same charities blindly.
