Therein lies the real issue. Right and left are constructs created for the purpose of keeping us fighting each other, rather than fighting the system. It’s the game they want us to play, because we’re more easily controlled that way. Keep us angry, keep us pissed off, use each other against ourselves. While the wealth keeps flowing in one direction.

Yes, individuals may have said those things to you, but they were presented with the same choices and responded exactly “as they were supposed to”, to piss people of and alienate them. Push everyone from the center, where reason and discourse can prevail. That’s the game they want us to play.
