I posted some statistics awhile back that showed the increase in polarization is mainly coming from the Right, while the Left has remained fairly constant in their polarization. Nothing outside historical norm for the Left while the Right had a noticeable spike.
Let me find it and I will edit it in.
***Edit: Here it is:
This graph is the House.
You can see there is somewhat of a downward trend in the Dems but nothing too unusual, expect for maybe the Southern Democrats, as it looks like they have had a slow moving alignment towards the other dems; however, the Republicans seem to really start to shoot off in the late 70's (just a note, but I think it was around the mid 1930's that the two parties swapped).
If you look at say from Reagan on that would probably be more relevant. Reagan is considered to be the President who set the stage for the current Republican party.
And this is the Senate:
Looks kind of the same, maybe more moderate Republicans than the House.

The alt-right trolls are even attacking the forthcoming Star Trek TV show because not enough white males are featured. http://www.newyorker.com/tech/elements/for-alt-right-trolls-star-trek-discovery-is-an-unsafe-space

Here’s A List Of Every Single Trump Lie Since He Took Office
In Trump’s America; the right, not the left, are the real haters
Study: when it comes to detecting racial inequality, white Christians have a blind spot
The Senate GOP hid the meanest things very deeply in its Obamacare repeal bill. We found them
Accordingly, it would appear that you are a leftist, anti-Christian hater with a blind spot for racial equality.
Please discuss.
Far as all indications that I meet support, the article is spot-on.
It sounds almost banal, actually.

Of course the tea party supporters are going to be the angriest. It all depends on the information sources. Liberals don't hate conservatives, they think they're just uninformed and gullible. But conservatives sure do hate liberals.
Ask a progressive what they think of conservatives and they'll say "uninformed, stupid, gullible."
Ask a conservative what they think of 'liberals' and they'll say "illegal, gay, welfare, anti-christian, anti-American, anti-constitution, etc."
The chart above indicates the right started getting fringey back when Roger Ailes was working with Reagan. Then Roger created Fox and the spike increased. Since then, the propaganda mills have only increased with social media and the internet.

Your juvenile reasoning and shouting fails to impress me. But no doubt you'll impress an idiot or two.

Worked for me. I'm such a deplorable idiot though. Odd, most of my life it's a term that has never applied to me. Sure, there are some of those special moments when I used the term idiot towards myself, but I don't recall anyone ever saying it to my face. I'm actually quite clever as frost giants go.

What on Earth does that prove? The polarization has been well documented and researched, the evidence points to there being more polarization on the Right than the Left.
