Fareed Zakaria: Liberals think they're tolerant, but they're not

The way people talk about each other these days is so depressing.

By the way these agenda-having suits talk, there are only two types of people in this world: Liberals and Conservatives.

This dilution of individuality casts a plague on the merit of our individual opinions. Aren't you people getting tired of this shit?

Trump as a president, regardless of his "side", has done nothing but make this divide worse. All because he lacks humility as a human being. He doesn't like being seen as a buffoon by a big chunk of people in the world, so he makes his supporters take up for him. They have no idea that Trump sees them as his goons.

People are critical of presidents, and sure, there's a bias based on political identity. But Trump has such thin skin, all his attention goes into his reputation. You want to talk about "tolerance"? Are you kidding me?

Obama was called a Muslim, the antichrist, and ridiculed for what condiments he likes on his food. But he didn't put this at the forefront of his presidency like Trump has.

How are people supposed to take such broad generalities seriously? You are a fool if you allow this convoluted perception the media (whether intentional or not) projects onto us to dictate how you deal with your everyday life.
