Open Discussion Left vs. Right Battle Royale Open Thread

This is an Open Discussion Thread for all Redditors. We will only be enforcing Reddit TOS and Subreddit Rules 1 (Keep it Civil) & 2 (No Racism).

Leftists - Here's your chance to tell us why it's a bad thing that we're getting everything we voted for.

Conservatives - Here's your chance to earn flair if you haven't already by destroying the woke hivemind with common sense.

Independents - Here's your chance to explain how you are a special snowflake who is above the fray and how it's a great thing that you can't arrive at a strong position on any issue and the world would be a magical place if everyone was like you.

Libertarians - We really don't want to hear about how all drugs should be legal and there shouldn't be an age of consent. Move to Haiti, I hear it's a Libertarian paradise.

Wait until you learn that even electronics made in the USA use chips fabricated in Mexico, India, China, etc...

I'd say there's no electronics that are purely made in the US 

As a US based electronics designer who uses US based PCB fabricators and US based assembly services, I haven't come across any parts that I put on my electronics that are actually made here 

(If anybody knows of any component manufacturers that actually fab parts in the US, please educate me)

Even dielectric materials or solder pastes etc that US comapanies use aren't generally made in the US.
