This is overly simplistic. Everybody has their own thresholds. The tamer the 'last straw' the easier it is to twist the message.



Why do you care?

If you're on the right, then I'd say look at the Presidency, look at the Congress, look at the Supreme Court, look at most of state and local governments and stop crying.

If you aren't on the right, why do you care how they feel? Do they spend time worrying about the suppressed people they victimize? Or do they mock them and deride them?


This is how American left loses elections.

I was really thinking that your crazies on the right simply make up that "intellectual left that looks down on them", but boyyy, HN discussions have convinced me that the US left is quite rotten too (I assume people here are actually friendlier and more likely to try to convince the other side than general population).

It's a shame, this stupid polarization.
