I would rather see the left putting the focus on our own ideas/candidates and promoting why they’re better.

Absolutely. We need to reach out to reasonable left and right - centre-left & right - & push out extremists.
-
reasonable, yes. There is an enormous section of the right, however, that is blatantly, proudly, unreasonable.
-
And on the left! I still think the middle is much larger tho.
-
yes, but I think the people you were referring to above are talking about debating the unreasonable right.
-
I really don't think so. Getting so tribal. Lefties are all SJWs and Righties are all racists. Very worrying.
-
but the point is the more we attack, the more we push reasonable moderates into the extremes.
-
That is true, yes. Why I am saying the reasonable centre needs to unite & stop generalising other side with the worst

The alternative is that the country splits in half. Or it collapses. The two sides cannot live together.
-
They have to. Both are needed. The moderates must ally and form a strong centre against the extremes.
-
Yes, that is ideal. I fear, though, that the ideal is practically impossible.

I have had a number of discussion with friends and nobody can see how one can get back to civilised exchange of views

Debate is necessary and vital, but even I wonder how productive it can be when people are so tribal about their politics.

That, unfortunately, seems to be begin to appear like a possible scenario. Not very likely, but not unthinkable.
