CDZ American politics isn’t about who you love. It’s about who you fear.

[Teddy Pollins]

2 political scientists have found the secret to partisanship and it s deeply depressing - Vox
This is very obvious. It is why everything is a "war on" something and all campaigning is why you should fear the dreaded "other."
Americans are stupid. You don't get their support by impressing them. You get support by making them afraid of the "other," because they are not wrong, they are evil for holding different views.
Any opinion will be listened to...

[C_Clayton_Jones]

"American politics isn’t about who you love. It’s about who you fear."

AKA: “the lesser of two evils.”

Many of us have made peace with this decades ago; indeed, it can be said one doesn't vote 'for' anyone, only against.

 

[occupied]

It did not take a scientific study to illutrate the fact that American politics are ruled by fear, many on this board even go so far as to react with extreme anger to any statement meant to calm their phantom fears.

 

[Disir]

Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger." -- Herman Goering

Well, sure. But, the problem is that it is emotionally exhausting and it runs its course.

Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.

Not a communist dictatorship, just a psychopathic dictatorship claiming to follow communism.

That too.

 

[Donald Polish]

It is unsurprising in the USA's political climate where the onus seems on offending or alienating as few as possible rather than inspiring the masses that this culture of fear has become insidious.

People wouldn't be ideologues in general. In practice, dumbs will dumb, so government needs to be designed in order to minimize their impact. The US is okay at this now, but gerrymandering produces ideologue congresspeople, and that sucks.

2 political scientists have found the secret to partisanship and it s deeply depressing - Vox
This is very obvious. It is why everything is a "war on" something and all campaigning is why you should fear the dreaded "other."
Americans are stupid. You don't get their support by impressing them. You get support by making them afraid of the "other," because they are not wrong, they are evil for holding different views.
Any opinion will be listened to...

I would add a third level of partisanship: Hidden agendas. It is one thing to vigorously support a position you believe in. It is something different to pretend to support a position only as long as it furthers some other position. Code Pink and NOW are two organizations that willingly abandon their "principles" whenever it doesn't further their larger political agendas. Trying to reason with dishonest people is an exercise in futility.
