It’s easier to listen to others argue about molehills and get your jollies from taking sides… It’s easier than to look at both sides rationally and objectively and make the correct decision. Therefore we have nearly half the US voters staying ignorant, or worse yet, becoming misinformed, which is another way of saying brainwashed. If you can’t handle making sense out of the confusing issues and making a decision that’s rational, then you should not be in politics, you should be into sports where there are winners and losers and millions of spectators.
