There seems to be an abnormal amount of hatred on both sides here. Alot of de-humanizing the opposition to the point where they don't just disagree with you, they want to punch you in the face.
Is it like this everywhere? I don't follow politics outside the U.S. so I don't know.

Just kidding..
In the netherlands we do see a trend like it is currently "been done" in the us.
For years and years, it was pretty much a nice hot discussion between parties, but always the focus was on "Making your own party look the best". Since a year or 2, it is more and more beginning to sound like "Make the other party look like shit".
Discussions have been getting harder, although it still isnt accepted by most of the people, to get commercials aired like the ones you see in the states.
