If so, I blame the media for constantly selling their narratives and inciting hatred. Any disagreement is labeled as far this and far that. If a politician makes a move that does not fit a side's narrative, the media will attack the politician's motives and assume the worst. When the SCOTUS make a ruling that the media disagrees with, it must be that the SCOTUS are the worst human beings in the world and they have the most sinister motives. The list can go on.
I'd also blame the education system of the US. We are supposed to educate kids to take different views, to seek information instead of merely opinions, to be aware of logical fallacies, especially the damaging ones like attacking one's motive. Yet someone we get generations of angrier and angrier kids.
