That is like arguing flat earthers have a right to insist everyone be taught the earth is flat.

At this point in history, the left gets facts right thousands of times more than the right does.

The right insists that climate change is a hoax. The right claims the election was stolen. Those two things alone are a threat to facts. 

It does make a difference. There was a time in American history where women couldn't vote and blacks had to sit at the back of the bus. Only one party today is attempting to turn back the clock on progress.

I get that Republicans are the nutjobs, but when you say:

How does that support the idea that such divisions will lead to the breakup of the US as compared to the past?  I'm assuming that's the point you were trying to make.  If not then I don't get your point.

No, this doesn't relate to anything I said.  You must have misunderstood.
Why is it so?
