        These arguments often make sense to me, but right now seem like they’re avoiding looking at things like Fox News which are just distorting the narratives completely. This does not feel like a time where natural partisanship and sorting is underway...

        ... this feels like a very particular time where one News corporation is massively distorting the rhetoric, where Presidents routinely lie and where self-proclaimed Nazis are putting themselves up for Office for Republicans.

        I’m just saying, the piece implies a wide spectrum of people pulled to the extremes, but at the moment, the extremes are pulling WAY harder on one end and the polarization is at least partly to do with that

        Our brains operate under “survival mode” by default. Which is a safer choice: to conform or to disagree?

        They don’t know one another’s opinions to disagree. They are so tied to these arbitrary sides as if they were their own identities and will choose “beating the enemy” over seeking the truth everytime because disagreeing with their party line becomes akin to killing a part of them

        Lots of problems with this article. "how could the polls be so wrong? Put simply, the polls didn’t actually measure how people truly felt." 538, the best interpreter of polls gave Trump a 33% chance of winning. Bigger problem is in poll interpretation.

        How far off were the estimates of the popular vote? How many votes in the swing states made a difference? Lots of misinterpretation of data.
