I don't like the contempt you sometimes see from people on the left, but I'm not going to pretend it's not way worse in the other direction.

A lot of people who are totally OK with "Liberals are pedos/groomers", "ban Muslims from entering the country", "they're rapists and some I assume are good people", "grab em by the pussy", "she had blood coming out of her wherever", "going death con 3 on Jewish people", ... are so committed to civil discourse that they still bring up that one thing Hillary said on a hot mic 7 years ago.

I had to be the only person in the room who refuted my old friend years ago when he/she claimed that "All Republicans are rapists." This is a direct quote. I wouldn't drop the issue, and neither would they. My friends in the room defused the situation, but things between me and that friend have never been the same since, because they are now convinced that I'm on the side of the Republicans they so hate. I never make friends based on political affiliation, and it made me real sad to start losing that one when I stopped them from saying something objectively horrible. 

The contempt from the right is on the same level as that, except more comical. No, Democrats are not all pedophile demon worshippers. The uprise of tribalism in America since 2016 really makes me sad. I hate seeing it. I wish people would just be able to come together as Americans instead of treating each other like lepers based on political belief.
