I'm not sure if the parent comment is sarcastic or bitter, but I think it's important to remember that it's not reality. The idea is false that humans are locked into ideologies and care nothing for truth, reality, and the welfare of their fellow citizens; it's despair. It's capitulation to the few ideologues, who do see the world that way and want to impose it on the rest of us.
It's not Republicans vs Democrats, or conservatives vs liberals, it's ideologues vs good-willed, sensible people, thinking and acting in good faith.
