That's what I have been trying to tell people. There are literally two alternate realities and the extreme polarization tries to suck you into either one or the other. Because what people don't realize is that worldviews are tied to group identification.
My theory is that the economic problems have been stressing the systems and that makes the "bones" more apparent. The core concept of this country is checks and balances of two opposing sides. I think it was a great improvement over authoritarianism, but you can see that it is definitely not the ideal final paradigm.
