Outstanding description of what’s going on in both Spotsylvania and Stafford County. Balanced, thoughtful and open to the idea that both conservatives and progressives can have mutual interests in solutions, but that the current extremists don’t.
One sentence jumps out though, "What we have watched happen over the past year is far more than a dispute between conservative and progressive approaches to solving problems."
I wouldn't say that it's 'far more than' that.
I'd actually say that it isn't that at all.
We're not seeing a dispute between conservatives and progressives.
We're seeing a dispute between giving in to corruption or having principles.
I lean pretty far left, but I've voted for the occasional conservative if I thought they were the best person for the job. Conservatism isn't the issue here; dishonesty, grift, and authoritarianism is.
