I've also noticed I can disagree with people I actually know.

Online we're all on teams. If anywhere in your post history you indicate your on a different team then we need to say mean things to each other.

In real life I have very liberal , very conservative and somewhat indifferent friends. I've also dated a variety of folks with different political leanings. I've largely stepped back from social media due to this. Why am I going to get into arguments with people I don't even know ?

If you want to connect with people, I suggest meet up groups. It's very easy to make friends you can actually hang out with. I would say to prioritize doing things you want to do. Like I'm heavily into tech talks , so I attended a ton of those.

I'm fairly optimistic next year the vaccine will be out and things will be somewhat normal.
