48. huge barrier to overcome is your 2 party-dominated false paradigm, the systemic controllers just...
sit back and play the tried-and-true old game of 'let's you and him fight'.

This political dualism is a reverted form of pure tribalism, ergo, many (in the USA, due to its huge size you are talking tens of millions) people who have huge common cause with others on the truly gravity-laden issues (ie. the wars of empire bankrupting the state, the absolute loss of your constitutionally enshrined civil liberties, the crushing debasement of your dollar, the plunge in public health due to a synthetically altered diet full of toxins, carcinogens, GMO's, synthetic sugars such as the horrific Aspartame, etc etc etc)....... simply will not get over the ideological divide that is exploited and magnified by a '2 choice only and out' system.

Black and white (no grey allowed), us vs them, right or wrong, win or die, all or nothing, bigger is better, my way or the highway, etc etc. are all, by either organic structural confluence, or IMHO by cold hard psychological design, so ingrained through the mass-media bathed zeitgeist that any partial unity of resistance to the controlling oligarchy will never hit the tipping point in a manner that most hope for.

When peaceful attempts at change are blocked, violent change attempts are inevitable, and the overlords have been been preparing for this for decades. Even your local police forces are paramilitary at multiple levels, in many cases outright, in others by the sheer force of their numbers who were honed at their 'craft' in the myriad empiric battle theatres of the last 20+ years.

The DHS/NSA/FBI enforcement complex, the rapidly privatized, for-profit profit prison schema, the track/trace/database technetronic web that has been slowly, ruthlessly lowered, the mass-paranoia of so-called terrorism that encourages a 'see-something-say-something' culture of neighborly distrust that has arisen would make the Stasi proud.
