People have started to believe that opinions are the same or better than facts. That's also the reason why politics is fucked.

Ironic that the Right is the movement associated with the phrase "Facts don't care about your feelings."

People have also gone from disagreeing with each other to outright despising the other party and all people who are associated. Social media has created an echo chamber that has divided us unfortunately.
