I have in my life at the moment, several parties who once interacted but who are now avoiding each other because of the toxic & devisive political climate in our country...I don't see a quick fix, and I don't really see it as my problem to fix. I can only do what I can do....they, along with many others have chosen to isolate themselves in a "bubble" till they are ready to interact. I think it is a form of self-protection for them, so I respect it, as sad & unfortunate as I feel it is. Probably not the same as your situation, but my point is, you are not likely to be able to change peoples' minds until they are ready to do so of their own volition.
That sounds pretty similar with the 'bubble.' Since making this video yesterday, I'm coming to terms with yeah I can't help someone if they don't want to help themselves.
I'm starting to wonder that too. By nature of my interactions with the groups separately, topics of frustration over the other groups tend to creep up. The main exposure is because I try to coordinate events that involve both parties, but then I hear that the other doesn't want to because the other will be there but yet they haven't addressed their own issues.

For sure, no way to fix political divisions man.

@@kevmo19 It's nice that you care enough to want to be a peacemaker. 🤷♂♥
Why would you put yourself through headaches. Have gathering without two opposing parties. U only invite trouble put yourself in middle.
