For 40 years there has been a demonization of liberalism. Liberals are seen as the enemy. Liberals seek to destroy America and other such sentiments are common by consumers of right wing media. There are similar sentiments by liberals of conservatives.

If the true enemy is the opposing ideology then the vileness of the candidate of your ideology is overlooked by many people. It’s not a good state of affairs for so many people to view an entire ideology as evil and the enemy.

Donald Trump is a piece of shit. So is Bill Clinton. AOC is a good person. So is Mitt Romney.

Liberals were demonized by the far left just as much, being castigated for reminding the public of the importance of "freeze peach"(sic) when the left wanted to suppress "misinformation" and pointing out that the Popper's paradox of tolerance did not excuse one's own intolerant behavior.

Can you cite some examples? I'm not understanding correctly what you are getting at.
