  • We Are Becoming More Polarized

    I think we all understood this was happening...

    In polarized era, fewer Americans hold a mix of conservative and liberal views

    Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

    Makes sense to me. Me and my brother disagree on most everything political.

      Yeah, saw that. And, yeah, seems to be.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        I notice that on the republican side, most is still in the middle and it drops off as you go further right. But on the left side, it is pretty consistently high all the way to the left with the extreme left still very high. Which means that there are a heck of a lot more Extreme liberals than there are extreme conservatives.

          Just by keeping an eye on the news it is clear that there are a lot more extreme liberals than there are extreme conservatives.

            Hrm, if you look at the 10 questions asked (which requires a frustrating amount of digging, but you can find it here near the end) that are used to determine how conservative/liberal someone is, there are some political questions that are conspicuously missing, such as abortion or gun rights despite those being fairly major issues to people.
