Most polarization comes from identity politics, since by definition it forces us into tribes. Which means then there are "good" tribes and "bad" tribes and tribes are or aren't aligned with. So we need to call out identity politics for what it is (and yes, the right is guilty of identity politics too) if we ever hope to beat back all of this hatred its causing. If we really want to destroy the divisiveness we should eliminate political parties in general. There is no requirement for government to provide any support for political party primaries/caucuses or to even mention party on ballots in the elections.
