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

[TheLeftwardTide]

I live in an extremely liberal area, so most political discussions either turn into circlejerks or inter-factional debate about the Democratic Party.

I do know a few fiscal conservatives that I argue with from time to time, but usually we just put politics aside for our mutual benefit. I don't like arguing with them anyway, because their arguments are just cookie-cutter, unoriginal cliches, i.e. "can't afford single-payer", "muh Venezuela", "muh entitled lazy poor people".

Truth be told, I really hate the fact that everything has become political. Movies, video games, even food...make it stop!
