If you haven't noticed the USA is in the middle of a fascist auto-coup.

So it's not exaggeration. I've had to cut ties with members of my family. Because they believe some people are sub humans that don't deserve rights or that regions of the globe should be purged.

Politics usually aren't as polarised as in the USA

I don't have any first hand experience outside of the USA. But from global news it sounds like this is a global trend in places like germany, France, Italy, most of south america, Africa, and Asia too.

Maybe I should say that you should align with friends based on your moral principles rather than politics.

That's better yes. Some of my closest friends are politically very different from me, but in the end we mostly do align morally.
