Not a new heritage.  It is traditional, the liberal heritage, to seek a more perfect union, a new birth of freedom.  The two changes pushed at this time are to recognize science in knowing the nature of problems and how to resolve them, and a third slice at racism.  (The first two were at the Civil War and Civil Rights movement.)  Both themes that have surface so far are reasonable ways to improve the culture, and fairly traditional in terms of seeking improvement and change.

Your obsession with violence and habit of making absurd empty threats is showing.  

Most Americans of both red and blue flavors value life, and those that favor the economy have recognized that you must beat the virus to reopen.  Shortcuts don't help, but in fact hurt big time. The people have spoken loudly on racist violence by police as well.  In short, the red folk are moving blue big time.  This looks to be solved by legislation not by violence this time around.

There is just more to America than selfishness and racism.

I agree, both sides value life. Life is a common value that both side share. So, what all goes into life (peoples lives) these days? I assume that you and I have much different lives. Me, I own a business and I have a family to support which requires a lot of time and effort on my behalf. I'm out there working and interacting with people every day with the exception of typical slow times of the year and occasional opportunities to take a breather and catch up on paperwork or spend time doing this during patches of mild weather like now. Our governor spent more time bouncing between his constituencies and pleasing his constituencies than he spent worrying about the impacts on the lives of working people and small business's and so forth. You know what, the more I get to know the Democrats, the more I can't stand the Democrats. To be honest, by the time we get out of this financial mess, we are going to be in debt up to our eye balls if not over our head. Bob, the writing is on the wall. The United States as we know it, is not coming out this crisis the way it is today. We both agree on that. If you're lucky, you'll be dead before the shit hits the fan. Now, you can stick with selling/playing liberal kumbaya, love and peace, live and let live and continue supporting liberal peacekeepers for Democratic presidents whose main purpose is to keep an old party that's half rotten together. Now, you may not be in the rotten half of the party. You too seem like a decent level headed person at times too. You worked for what you have and stashed away as much as you could to set yourself up for retirement which explains the reason why the economy doesn't seem to matter to you at this point. You may have flirted with Marxism but you didn't stick with Marxism and embraced the American way. I'll make you a deal. You keep the crazy liberal comments to yourself, I'll keep the comments about future violence to myself. One other thing relating to the violence that I speak of, it's not an empty threat, it's a real threat that at least wise enough to know where the border was between blue and red. I'm going to share some real life information with you, the looters and rioters stopped a few miles from my home because there was a heavily armed group of residents who were waiting for them. I had neighborhood duty. Like I said, I believe the American people are mainly ahead of the people running Washington, DC.
