I mean lots of people do the same thing on the other side, but many deem it as reasonable because they agree with the viewpoint. It’s natural when the opposition is considered to be wrong and irrational to cope by removing all interaction. It doesn’t matter which side, it’s true for both. When it gets to an extreme point, you get civil war or capitulation.
People on the left don’t bury their heads in the sand and pretend people with opposing opinions don’t exist. Fuck, I’m a lefties precisely because the other guys are fucking fascists. You cut those out of your life because they are horrible evil people and their entire world view is incompatible with something as basic as empathy for your fellow human.
Just to be clear, I’m not justifying it, but the reason doesn’t matter. The right thinks the same of the left. You say they don’t, but then go on to say why they do cut people out. Of course they do, else they’d be going insane… It’s a mental survival coping tactic. Both sides do this, until something changes, like regime change, civil war, or capitulation.
