I member a time when most adults would have somewhat reasonable opinions and we could have a discussion about a specific issue without jumping to "you're a <insert political party>" therefore you suck, therefore your opinion is bad.

Nowadays I hear straight up batshit crazy things all the time. All the time.

It used to be that if you had crazy ideas you would receive feedback that you're crazy and people would not want to associate with you. Nowadays instead of thinking about it you just double down. Other nuts are coming out of the woodwork and all of a sudden "we have to consider all points of view". We cater to the lowest common denominator and entertain things that should be summarily dismissied.
