There’s no live and let live anymore is there?

if you don't agree with me
1) there is something wrong with you
2) you don't understand
3) you are evil

or a combination of all three - yeah, people are getting crazy out there.

I would go so far as to even say society has changed a bit in the way people interact with each other. There seems to be a loss of a genuine interest in people just talking about stuff with an open mind and the possibility of maybe learning something new or maybe gaining a new perspective. Aside from the political element that seems to be in every conversation today, most people I think are short term conversationalists. That’s why text is so prevalent today. We wait patiently without really listening just to get our point out and across. And if we don’t agree with someone we dismiss them. Even if they are incorrect on just one thing it means they must be incorrect on everything. We surround ourselves with like minded individuals and people who agree with us, circling our wagons further reinforcing our bias. We live in bubbles. IDK if there’s some sinister conspiratorial design at play by ‘the powers that be’. They’re forcing us to choose camps and to unacknowledge truths and debate facts. Crazy times we’re living in

That certainly seems the direction
So so sad too

There are certain things that do require a binary but most don't.

Assuming a binary ends up creating one.

I'm pretty sure it all started in 2008, when we elected a melanin enhanced president. Suddenly, it became quite apparent that a lot more people in this country hate people based on the amount of melanin in their skin than anyone realized. And of course, the people who hate other people based on the amount of melanin in their skin were angry at being outed, so they started getting even more unpleasant, and a lot of young people who had never dealt with that level of hatred mistakenly assumed the way to deal with it was with more hatred.
