Because politics has become a drama, working people out just like a soap opera or a reality show.

I’m British and I think we’re pretty bad sometimes, but the US is on another level. Can’t they just compromise, keep calm and carry on. Whatever happened to being nice is the USA?

Be independent. Standing in the gap is the only sane place to be. If the dialogue is circular get outside it all. At 77yrs I have been everywhere on this spectrum..

Citizens United and profiting from sensationalism

Is the bane of American existence

I shall now go and read it for myself. The last 10 years have been stupid and now we are seeing how dumb, hateful and dangerous it has been to think we didn't have to act regularly to maintain our Democracy and autonomy.

Why American Politics Became So Divided? Answer We always have been, but I believe social media has made it worse

[bigchungus]

Yes I am going to listen to the divisive, polarizing news network about why America is divisive and polarized

You must be willing to stand up to the Fascists like we did in WW2... we stopped Hitler now we must stop Hitler 2020 Trump

It started to get stupid when Bush 2 was president

I keep hearing about people on both extreme ends of the political spectrum who dominate the conversation, and I've seen the ones on the right, from the Shapiro's to the Hannity's, from the Jones' to the Carlsons, but I can't seem to find the ones on the left.
Who are they and what are they saying that's so radical? Because I might want to sign up for that club.

[gregdenson]

Oh I don't know, maybe 30+ years of escalating toxic rhetoric from the right has something to do with it.

[olliemck]

Even more then social media is fox news, and hate radio.

If you don’t want to be my friend because of my political stance your not my kind of person anyway

[lklobs]

Okay, I would like to point out that I live at a very extreme end of that spectrum (Marxist) and I would not say that my views are dominating the conversation in any way. Yes, the other extreme has had a lot of play time. But has my extreme? I wish the Left was as extremely progressive as the Far Right says they are, then maybe they would get some stuff done for once. And I disagree that I am incapable of nuanced conversation since my views are extreme. I have far more nuanced conversations about politics than any lame centrists, who are too busy patting themselves on the back for not pissing anyone off GOD FORBID.

People are getting more and more ignorant, they dont hear eachother anymore :(

[roy]

Ana go get them. Bust them up. You have got some good brains.

[denlucas]

Who would you call extreme on the Left? And how are they silencing anyone? I've seen Billionaires building an extreme Right structure but not the same on the Left.

[mikehavok]

People suck in general Ana, and you are beautiful ❤
