That's how social pressure always works. Godwinning it, you could say the NSDAP was just a political party and thus supporting it is beyond criticism.

Lately that social pressure has been pushing me away from the people that I would otherwise broadly agree with politically. I'd be more likely to vote trump (not American anyway, just a hypothetical) now than I would have been a few years ago because I'm sick of the identity wars SJW's are fighting.

I am glad to know I am not the only one. I cannot tolerate reading news anymore I'm so sick of this stuff. It is making me a depressed fearful hermit. Helps to know I am not alone.

There's plenty of us. I've met a few in person and there are a lot on YouTube (Chris ray gun is the best example).

Hopefully it's not too late to put the genie back in the bottle.
