To expand on my above rant, people can’t even disagree anymore. It’s like your opponent has to be the most evil imaginable. No, one can’t even be an extremist, they have to be akin to the Nazis, Soviets, or give your pick of the litter of a truly evil regime. We’re always going to be a politically divided nation until people realize that disagreement doesn’t mean evil.

Many people need monsters to real and those on the right these days believe themselves surrounded by monsters.

It’s not surprising they’ve lost the ability to deal with people they disagree with rationally. It’s impossible to deal with monsters rationally.
