Somehow the issue of fraud has become a divisive issue. I think that both sides of the debate are off slightly and that there is no reason for it to be an us versus them situation.

I think that the election was stolen. However, I don't think that is the sole nor the main concern.

It isn't that they stole the election, it is why they stole the election that is the concern. They stole the election in order to steal the government. As alarming as that is, that isn't the entire concern, rather we should be concerned with why they are stealing the government.

They are stealing the government because they have plans for using it.

And even that is not the entire concern. It is what they are planning on using the government to do that we should be concerned with. What they are planning to do is going to be horrendous, what none of us will be able to escape that. This makes "get over it" an impossibility and an illusion. On the other hand, focusing solely on the election and screaming fraud, while justifiable, is pathetically incomplete and inadequate as a response. Worse yet, it is causing division at the very time we need to build solidarity.

So one side of the debate - the "get over it" side - is an illusion and an impossibility.

The other side - the fraud side - is inadequate and incomplete.

Both sides are right, and both sides are wrong. That makes for the perfect unresolvable and perpetual argument, the only result of which will be weakness and acrimony.
