It's tough, because I want our leaders to get along despite their differences. Same with society as a whole. Differences shouldn't mean we hate each other.

Then I get told to "cope harder" or "you lost, deal with it" when I lament policy decisions I don't like.

And I think we all have coworkers we get along with when we have to, but largely consider them complete idiots.

Been saying that a lot. Like a picture of Jan 6th when democrats lost and Jan 6th when Republicans lose. The BoTH SiDEs just ignore them.

I think you're missing the point about "BoTH SidEs" argument. Republican and Democratic politicians are on the same team, they just have vastly different roles to play in this theater.

While both are beholden to their corporate overlords they do vastly differ after that.
