I was thinking the US because of the viscous atmosphere between democrats / conservatives.
It feels like we're sliding backwards in civil discourse and it's quite disappointing. We've lost all patience for our neighbor. It's all a black and white, right or wrong, "where do YOU stand?" environment.

That may be what its like in social media, but IRL really doesn't seem to care that much. At least in my cushy midwestern city.
