The burnings will continue untill we get representation that actually aligns with the will of the people.
To be clear, i won’t be me burning, nor anyone on this site; just the regular Joe who has been pushed too far. We don’t even have to encourage it. The more our leaders don’t listen and ultra rich greed continues the more they will happen.
It is the same as: the less it rains (justice) the dryer and more flammable the ground will get. Not a threat, but the nature of humanity and society.
Nothing will improve until the US moves away from the two party system. It’s an inherently flawed system, because it leaves no room for nuance. You either have to vote for the red guys or the blue guys and if both the red guys and the blue guys are crap then you have to vote for the least worst option, which is often hard to identify.
There’s nothing written down that actually requires people to be the representative of one party or another, it’s just how things have worked out.
The US also needs to seriously get a grip on religion in politics, it can be there up to a point but there has to be a limit. In any other western country a politician stating that a war is just and required entirely on the basis of religion alone would rightfully get them sectioned.
No third party has risen up high enough to compete. You are right, but no third option has made its way to the forefront.
As for religion and politics, that will be extreamly difficult untill the aforementioned 3rd party comes to being. And even then, the cults of America will make it where life is hard if you are not part of thier groups. Even if we make it illigal to do so: see civil rights movement in the 60’s.

No third option has been allowed to rise. The Rs and Ds have rigged the system to keep out third parties.
I only disagree with this because I know far too well that infighting is more destructive than anything either side could do.
Majority take all voting needs to go, it doesn’t allow nuanced representation either.
