I'm ready to get downvoted, but this is exactly the reason I'm incredibly sceptical about any conflicts going on, including wars. I just think the possibility of the "two sides" working together just to polarize society is too goddamn high. But of course, as soon as you bring a subject like this into a discussion, you immediately get bombarded with the "you are against my idea so you're an extremist" kind of vocabulary... For example: "Omg you're pro-russian" - meanwhile I volunteer to help Ukrainian people, but I guess I love Russia when I do that. Shit's wild...
It’s domestic as well. Red vs Blue is just a distraction and you can’t point this out because nearly everyone is divided along those lines to the point of ignoring getting fucked up the ass.
Divide and conquer...
I think Roosterteeth did a better job than just "a distraction".

opportunists would gather around a piece of shit if it benefited them
