Last year, near the UVA campus, there was a widely publicized right-wing protest. But it was about identity politics, not about tax policy or anything like that.
No surprise, given that the loudest voices in politics are yelling about identity politics and drawing the battle lines based on identity rather than policy. Since most people cannot easily change their identity, it is not surprising that it is less likely that they will agree to disagree like they could on other policy matters.
