Affective Polarization: Understanding Division in American Politics 

This is definitely an interesting subject and more importantly a difficult problem to solve for the sake of our Country. One can perceive that affective polarization is the level of animosity towards another group based on their beliefs. Everyone could learn a little bit from just stepping back and looking at ourselves for a minute. Thank you for explaining what affective polarization is.

Very good explanation. As Americans, we all should be aware of polarization. We will never be 100% in agreement. It’s up to us to support our elected leaders as best we can, whether we agree with them or not. We can hope and pray that positive things will come from either side. To see the positive, we will need to open our eyes and try. I voted for Trump. I hope Joe will do great things for our country. In order for me to see it, I’ll need to get give the man chance. I pray all Americans will do the same.

Thank you so much for your input. I was intrigued as constantly hear this word on the news.

Great Yphtach. So now we only need to change our leaders.

Circular argument ! The most influential circumstances and events shaping the global politics is surely the wealth and power distribution ! Where that discrepancy is

That’s very wise, thoughtful. This has nearly no views compared to the really polarized channels And a handful of comments

Hoping this gets many more views.

Divisional politics has left many eligible voters disenfranchised. Moderates have no one to vote for.

@PolarizerIO rewards people seeking respectful disagreements with so called NOH8 tokens. It’s like a network for haters, but safe.
