Yes, me too. I had a long-time friend who was more liberal than I was, but as an intelligent centrist myself, we could rationally discuss and agree upon a lot of issues.

But then came the "woke" movement, based on the gross exaggeration that American society was infested by "white racism" and "oppression of marginalized people" despite all of the anti-discrimination, anti-poverty programs of the past 60 years. A component of that was for its advocates to "cancel" anyone who didn't agree with their extremism.

My former friend tried that with me, by delivering a diatribe about alleged "voter suppression" by Republicans with no opportunity to point out my reasons for supporting enhanced election security measures. So, I cancelled him.

(I am confident that Biden won the 2020 election and am repulsed by the January 6 insurrection, incited by Trump. But I also support Republican efforts for enhanced election security measures, considering the many election irregularities committed by Democrats (and some Republicans) in the past.)
