Hard to combat the hatred when social media amplifies every idiot who knows how to access the internet. Most people would get along just fine regardless of political or religious differences.

Things are much easier when you're not the object of that hate.

Unless you're suggesting people who have experienced hatred from idiots are justified in subsequently hating innocent people who share demographic checkboxes with the hateful idiots, I'm not quite certain what you mean in relation to what I said.
I truly believe the vast majority of people can get along just fine without all this vitriol that social media amplifies. Do you not?
I don't think you need to go much further than the East St. Louis race riots of 1919, or Tulsa in 1921, to know this hatred may have been worse before social media.

Attitudes common a century ago don't reflect people's views today.
You can't divorce the attitudes of today from the technology of today.
