Do any of you see this getting better? Any hope that people are okay with differing opinions without being called a communist or nazi sympathizer at this point? IMO, we are heading down a very dark path. Social media is only exacerbating this.

World War III

Americans are at their best when things are the most difficult. We're riding the gravy train right now, nothing will get better.

There is none. The left has no interest in having any sort of conversation.

They are unhinged and completely emotional at this point.

You can't reason with unreasonable people.

I don't think moderates quite understand how dangerous and violent these people are (and are becoming).

The left has had to hide their contempt for America and traditional American values for a long time. Their masks are coming off.

No liberal I know behaves like toddy in real life. It's all just bluster due to anonymity. The real world is mostly fine. I didn't run into any hysterical toddys today or yesterday.

Both sides are past the point of no return, the left is just more blatant about it. How many times does Trump completely frick up yet you have posters here bringing up Hillary as some defense? Honest discussion is dead

Honestly?

With luck, one of these masked marauding ANTIFA groups will run in to the wrong situation and be massacred and maybe the rest of them will think better of violently attacking people who aren't attacking you.

No. You can't reason with Communists, and the Left has decided to mainstream them. The evil on the Left will eventually have to be met with brute force, because Communists don't understand anything but.

This is true, most people are not crazy, the problem is the tiny minority of crazies are somehow in charge of one of the major political parties in this country and the entire news and entertainment media.

It is never going to get better. It's only downhill from here.

The alt-left won't be satisfied until the USA doesn't exist. It's not about calling someone racist bc they disagree with them. They want america transformed. They have a feeling of momentum bc of hussein obama's 8 years.

The only hope we have is the Supreme Court...beyond that, I don't know. I don't know if they have enough in them to actually fight to change law and amend the Constitution...but if they get their way, God help us all.

Within 5 years there will be a major attack on the first amendment. Hell, maybe less

Don't forget to give the other side their credit in that.

We need to settle it in the park with a good old fashioned gang fight.

No chains or knives...
