If one side says that I should be imprisoned or dead for existing, and the other says I should live not in prison or not dead, I choose life
Assuming everybody who votes differently from you or is in the opposing party is exactly the same is just as harmful as taking for granted that everything everybody on your side does or says is 100% correct. This binary view of politics has been exacerbated by social media, and it is doing a lot of harm. Both sides are basically at the point where they're convinced that the other side wants them dead. It's fucking crazy.

That song is spot on. They've successfully turned the people against each other to the point where anyone who criticizes the side they picked gets written off as a nazi.
