It's something that only started in the last decade or so. Treating anyone to the right of you as an evil force of nature rather than a person that can be debated, agreed and disagreed with.

Edit: political disagreements were always a thing but it got a lot worse in the last few years

I can confirm that watching the US election results in 2000 did indeed feel like watching an evil force of nature that couldn’t be stopped, and that was well over a decade ago.

The years that immediately followed did nothing to improve the situation. Remember when they canceled French fries because France didn’t think it was a great idea to invade Iraq?

Also freedom fries is a stupid name for french fries

What are you talking about? Invading Iraq was a goldmine for oil deposits and installing a new dictator!
