What's happened to American liberals the past decade can only be compared to cult indoctrination.

They have their tribe's sacred beliefs with maybe the most important one being that anyone not in their cult is an evil enemy who can never be trusted but only attacked and destroyed. And, much like cults, if you attempt any form of reasoned debate, try to find any middle ground, or even just remind the cult member of things they used to believe before they joined the cult, they will respond with furious rage and say or do anything not to have their cognitive dissonance challenged.

Tribalism plus our new propaganda/brainwashing devices (smartphones + social media) have essentially performed a lobotomy on the American liberal class.

This will not end well.
