We gotta get past the individualism of “everybody has to believe xyz.” It’s not that everybody has to have a good, moderate, both-sides belief system. It’s that society has to produce an outcome that is fair to all parties. Those are two different things.
Put another way, I don’t care if the rich hate the poor or the poor hate the rich. I don’t care if the blacks hate the whites or the whites hate the blacks. I care about if the rich dominate the poor, as they do. If the whites dominate the blacks, as they do.

And in fact, I think two sides hating each other can HELP achieve a balance of power sometimes. But anyway enough of that sermon.
