Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey aroused controversy after labeling a Medium article “great” that claimed there’s no “bipartisan way forward” in the United States and that the country is engaged in a “fundamental conflict between two worldviews that must be resolved in short order.”
Author and media consultant Peter Leyden and political commentator Ruy Teixeira argued in the article titled “The Great Lesson of California in America’s New Civil War” that America is already in the midst of a second major domestic conflict of sorts and the way out is for the rest of the country to imitate California.
Essentially, the authors called for a complete marginalization of the Republican Party and its voters since they only care “about rule by and for billionaires at the expense of working people” and not “average citizens.”
California, despite its mass wealth inequality, growing lack of social cohesion, poverty, and soaring housing costs “provides a model for America as a whole,” according to Leyden and Teixeira.
Leyden and Teixeira are somewhat correct that America currently faces a dialectic of “two political cultures already at odds through different political ideologies, philosophies.” Yet, they do not call for Democrats to try to understand their political adversaries.
Instead, they proposed Americans “take the Republican Party down for a generation or two” in order to save the country.

"California, despite its mass wealth inequality, growing lack of social cohesion, poverty, and soaring housing costs “provides a model for America as a whole,” according to Leyden and Teixeira."
Not a model I'd like the nation to emulate.
The crazy part of this is that conservatives would easily win. We have the guns! Dumbasses
The Dems won't come out of their parents basement and fight! Too busy eating Tide Pods, coloring, and holding stuffed toys for comfort.
If any party needs to be taken down a year or two to save our country would be the Democratic Party. They have gone Socialist/Communist crazy.
When it comes to war - no one ever wins anymore. Best we all try to get along.
Don't start any trouble and there won't be any.
BUT if you DO start it, republicans and conservatives will end it in less a than a month.
Can you imagine these pink and purple-haired, nipple piercing, easily offended by mean words losers trying to take out a firing position??
"Field of fire", to them, means a farmer's wheat crop is burning.
Good luck.
Lololol
Please let there be a snowflake ANTIFA war I can't WAIT.
Dems winning a civil war was the laugh I needed today. Thanks Jack, glad I wasn't drinking coffee - that would have been a real mess.
