In my view there are two big differences between, say, the 70s and now. The first is that the very low level tribalism that was around then has hardened. My own, idiosyncratic, evidence is dealing with my high school classmates. We could talk politics then with the feeling there were several assumptions we shared. Very hard to do now.

The second is that we have a president who governs as a tribalist. Makes it much, much worse.
