What's so amazing, and scary, to me is how brainwashed people are today. Anything people see, read, or hear that goes against their parties narrative is treated like a lie. I'm not sure how long this has existed because, before the internet, no one ever talked about politics.
My entire family were blue blooded southern Democrats for as long as I can remember, until recently. I guess were blessed enough to see through all the bull****. Sure, it's on both sides and increases everyday, but the left are so far left nowadays that they're halfway to Japan in the Pacific. Needless to say, 75% of my family have started voting red. At least they focus more on the policies that directly effect me and my family than they do on social policies I could care less about.
