changes in people in the last 10 years



And to address your question about whether people have changed in the last ten years: yes. The emotional "hate" of the "other side" has increased substantially, and, I would argue, drive modern politics. This may have started with Obama, but it really grew during the first Trump administration. Previously, it was conservatives who felt "like strangers in their own country", now it is liberals who feel this way (i.e., it's completely flipped around). Support for mass deportation of undocumented immigrants has become a majority opinion in the last 10 years. People seem to have generally become more conservative w.r.t. specific social values, e.g., having a baby outside of marriage and sex before marriage, and reverses the trend of more social liberalism that continued under Obama. Finally, more friendships are being lost due to differences in political beliefs and attitudes than ever before. https://uspollingdata.com/news/political-polarization-2026/
