> But it seems like in the US today, the divide is spread across the entire country. Personally I don't think the divide is as large as we think it is, I think it's just a result of social media skewing what is "popular". If you have 100 people, 80 are moderates, 10 have stronger political views, and the other 10 have extreme political views. Social media algorithms will almost always promote the content from those 10 because it gets the most shares and the world will seem like it's filled with those 10 folks.
