On one side of the line are those who believe that Donald Trump is still the President and that those people that attacked our Capitol on January 6th were totally justified. (After all, they were chanting "USA! USA! USA" )
On the other side of the line are those that say they believe in the facts and the truth. Joe Biden is the President because he got more votes. They see an existential threat to our democracy and our country.
Neither is ready to cross that line and accept the other side's argument as legitimate. That is the reality. That is where we are today.
As the Buddha stated, there are three things that can be long hidden - the sun, the moon, and the truth. Eventually, the truth will be exposed.
Until then, we can only stand on our side of the line. They can stay on their side of the line. In the next election, Americans can choose which side of the line they choose to stand?

Even snakes come out of their winter hibernation with a veil over their eyes. They are blind. They lose it in the sunlight.

reTHUG Fascist Insurrectionist Cultists have in mind? We have to be willing to cross that line and
take the metaphorical and very literal fight to them if we want our democracy and ourselves to survive.
