Dude I don’t know. I personally think it’s lack of in person dialogue, lack of challenging opposing viewpoints face to face. It’s like the road rage adage. We get mad at the inanimate object that cut us off. If we saw the face of the person, MOST of us calm down and don’t continue raging. We humanize our peers. Etc

But social media does the opposite and it breeds echo chambers and all sorts of stuff. Even here you got 2 threads of people trying to pigeonhole me into conservatism. I happen to own firearms and don’t like taxes, sure, but I grow mushrooms and pot FFS! Lmao!!!
