In reply to the discussion: It's a good thing women won't date Trump voters [View all]SouthernDem4ever
(6,619 posts)51. I disagree completely with the folling statement fromt Wapo article:
In some ways, polarization is exactly what one would expect in a large, unwieldy democracy such as the United States. Americans no longer agree on many questions of how to live or what to live for. These differences cant just be papered over through good-faith dialogue because they are real.
No, they aren't real. They are the result of propaganda manufactured rage and hate. Since Noot Gangrenous ran the house the dialogue has turned from "how can we make the US a better place for everyone" to "how can we demonize everyone that questions our twisted perception of reality."

So many men are just so clueless. They really think their hatred of women doesn't show.
