great post. one thing i would add though, i dont think it is necessarily some grand conspiracy from above so much as a consequence of humanity going through another massive learning curve comparable to our earliest forays on two feet or or managing fire, both of which would have created similar strife between communities in our past, only this time the revolution we are learning to deal with is the inter-connectivity of easy travel and the internet.
the more exposure we all have to a greater wealth of ideas and experiences, the more we are forced to filter them in order to reduce sensory overload and congestion, and therefore the more we start to move away from diversified opinions and spiral towards polarized cliches.
eventually we will master this new paradigm and learn to respect the many nuances that inhabit the less obvious nooks and crannies of popular opinion.
