Long term society and the economy function in spite of the politicians not because of anything they do..everyday folks can live their lives perfectly well if they ignore the political rhetoric and PC crap IMHO
IMHO you are very wrong. Every "popular movement" of the last hundred years was carefully orchestrated by politicians for their own ends. Winners are selected and the popular media is used to demonize and isolate the chosen losers. In America white men have been selected to lose, because we have the most wealth to loot. We will not be permitted to ignore the outcome.
