And be clear - it is not just one way. There are plenty posting that express the same hostility/hatred towards Republicans or Christians. The tendency to treat people according to some class or group characteristic is not limited to any one ideology.
The trick is that we fool ourselves. "I HATE abortion" a person may say (not you cow poke, that is just fresh in my mind and the example below is from long before I knew you). How easy is it to go from "I HATE abortion" to "I HATE abortionists". I've been at the abortion protest where the Christians direct their hatred of the evil of abortion against the people themselves. Against young girls embarrassed, hurting, doing what they think they have to to survive. No compassion for their circumstance. No attempt to help them before and after. Just condemnation and hate.
