This is fueled by #politics and despicable #demagogues who use #fear and #incitement to pit people against one another.

  16. How Intolerance and Extremism Happen:
    Understanding our Deepest Divides

    Demagogues and dictators (a subset of demagogues) frequently lead extremist movements. They often enjoy widespread popular support. One reason is that they claim to (or do) solve a problem that appears unsolvable. If problems don’t exist, ruthless dictators or demagogues create them so that they can position themselves as the only viable solution.
