How does political polarization manifest itself socially or in our daily lives?

[Technocracy Timmy]

We hear a lot about how we're the most polarized politically since the civil war era, but how does this manifest itself in our daily lives or in the social arena? Are we more confrontational, depressed, segregated, etc. than we were at any other time in the last 100+ years? How is society demonstrating these high levels of polarization beyond the realm of politics? Do we just not talk to people we deem from the "other side" because if so how does that translate in the suburbs (which are generally the swing areas in most states)??
