A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

It is a valid observation, though: in the USA, the loud (not necessarily) majority assumes their opinions are the only game in town, and simply the presence of another viewpoint is an attack upon their rights (?!?!) ...

They simply can't share the same room with another opinion. If something offends you, IT is (somehow) the problem and must be legislated out of existence. Etc. I'm sure it is universal, but the polarizing effect is particularly nasty in the states.
