Political division has been on the rise for years in the U.S. The gap between the two parties has grown sharply in Congress, while the share of Americans who interact with people from the other party has plummeted. Furthermore, many Americans only read news or get information from sources that align with their political beliefs, which exacerbates fundamental disagreements about the basic facts of many political problems. In other words, hatred specifically, hatred of the other party increasingly defines U.S. politics.
