the rhetoric on all sides has been hyperbolic for years - I imagine if we could graph the use of "treason" or "lock [X] up" in public discourse we would see an explosion around 2014 and continuing straight to today. What gives me hope is: a) McCarthyism (surely that was worse, yet we made it through) b) this language is happening on privately funded cable news that approx 5% (I believe) of Americans watch on a daily basis. That's a far better place than coming from government officials. |
