People are burnt out due to the polarization & extremism of politics. Everything isn’t all or nothing. When you flood people with intense situations & flood them with disinformation and misinformation on both sides then people check out mentally. People are no longer being educated nor are they having rational discussions. People are being forced to pick a “side”. All or nothing thinking rarely serves anyone, the world is significantly more grey and nuanced. Are people supposed to become single issue voters? Vote for a politician and or party for one or two major reasons but ignore everything else even if it goes against their beliefs and values ? I believe the nastiness of people’s intense emotions, all or nothing thinking and disregard of those that they’re aren’t 100% in agreement with is a significant detriment to democracy but it obviously doesn’t matter to people as long as they get their purity tested and get to last out. I’d say MAGA and Trump are as dangerous as it gets for US democracy they don’t need anymore help but liberals clearly don’t mind offering assistance. Treat people better, help educate people and maybe things will turn out better. #uspol#politics#unitedstates
