Hatred between Dems & Repugs; [View All]

[smirkymonkey]

Liberals & Conservatives; the Devout & the Secular, et. al. Obviously, I am not immune to this. What surprises me is how strong it is in me and how I can be reasonable over almost any subject but political orientation.

What are your opinions on why this hatred seems so strong lately? (steadily growing over the last decade). At first it seemed to be mainly repugs hating dems, but now the repugs are out of control - violent even, and it seems like we are catching up.

Although I agree that we need to be more agressive as a party, I also feel that no good can come out of such strong antipathy.

Why do you think this is? (besides this trainwreck of an admin). Not just the hatred toward administrations that you oppose, but people hating each other over their political views.
