Specifically, stuff like QAnon, facemask protests, BLM, trans rights, "white privilege", anthem protests, etc etc etc. There's pretty widespread recognition in the US of culture war flashpoints.

But before I engage anymore: are you American? Because we're discussing these political topics in the US context in this thread, explicitly.

Ok, and I gave them descriptions for how life has changed in my response to that.

I gave examples of frequent political discourse that I've been seeing lately, especially online.

> I did not question whether political discussions had increased in the public sphere, and as you mentioned, I agreed with that point of view.

So then you agree with the factual descriptions that I laid out in my response.
