re: Why is the country/this board so polarized?

I haven't read the thread so going back to your title 'country/board'

Re: poli board...keep in mind that 99.9% of Americans NEVER post on a Poli Board. All Poli Boards are polarized because they are inhabited by people who pay a LOT of attention to political issues. They have firm opinions about most topics and they are much more knowledgeable about those topics than the folks sitting next to you at the DMV.

Poli boards are also dominated by the right wing. It's because the right is more into logic while the left is more into emotion. Logic has the advantage in debate.

The Poli boards dominated by the left require heavy censorship by moderators...like Dem Underground. 90% of the posts I make on this board would be deleted by DU moderators. That's why I left after only 1 month.

Hell, Rex has been deleted by DU for not reciting the left wing line correctly.
