Just curious. Has it been a slow rise or is it spiking hard?

I honestly think it is spiking EVERYWHERE. I know people are frustrated, but do they have to take it out on everything no matter where they are? We see it with sports because that is one place you are expected to be able to let those emotions loose. We no longer tolerate or appreciate those who have a different point of view than we do - we expect everyone to fit into our narrow little definitions and if they don't they must be eliminated with as much hatred and venom as possible.
