It's amazing how civil discourse and reasoning has been removed from the average American's toolbox. It's one extreme or the other. There's no middle ground anymore. How did this happen? Why can't we have reasonable debates anymore? What entity could cause such a shift in our discernment and desire to understand all the variables in a situation that isn't black & white? There's zero gray area anymore that allows folks to agree to disagree.
The dichotomy of our country has been designed to generate revenue: it's just one aisle now.
Maybe the jack ass who calls people losers and attacks anyone who disagrees with him. Maybe that's where it went off the rails.
