It’s the astonishing descent into vitriol and name-calling that repels me.

Which is what has been going on here, Trumpsters toward Cruzers and Cruzers towards Trumpsters, and it has made me sick here too. There are reasoned heads here on both sides, but they can't be heard over the vitriol and name-calling. We expect it from the left because to them feelings are more important than facts, and has been since the early 1800s and Romanticism, but we're supposed to be better than this.

Oh my goodness I was going to point that out! And some of the threads on the religious forum...my oh my! Although those have gotten somewhat better. It’s like a verbal boxing match.

Absodamnlutely. And the Bots just can't see it for what it is. Acting as bad if not worse than the typical liberals. Like I said, its become fairly apparent that a lot (a LOT) of people here are just a-holes, who, when pushed to a certain degree, just can't help themselves. Its been a sad and disheartening election cycle.
