Is intelligent and rational thought still possible?

It seems to me that we have an increased division into tribalism, an increased knee-jerk reaction to any article, heightened emotional states, more outpourings of hatred, labelling and disregarding, an increased amount of personal abuse, a nastier set of abuse, an inability to actually read what was written and intelligently engage in supporting, refuting or providing a different facet, an endless reciting of fake crap based on bogus sites that are believed as fakes, and a lack of ability to see anybody else’s point of view if it happens to differ from your own political stance.

Or is that just me?
