Once upon a time Americans weren’t consumed by politics; they could even be friends with people from the opposite party. There was a thriving social society. That represented a threat to the left, because politics and power are all its got. From J.B. Shurk at americanthinker.com:
Feminists in the ’60s and ’70s had a slogan that sought to politicize the household: The personal is political. The rallying cry was meant to challenge traditional family values and the expectation that women should be caring wives and mothers who looked after the home. Breaking free from the “prison” of the nuclear family was described as “liberating” for American women.
So-called “student activists” and “black liberation” groups adopted the argument for their own purposes, and protest movements sought out ways to invade Americans’ private spaces. The idea was to make people feel uncomfortable so that they were forced to acknowledge whatever “issues” protesters were pushing. Feminists, anti-war activists, and civil rights protesters targeted citizens in restaurants, movie theaters, parks, churches, and shopping districts. They made it impossible for ordinary families to enjoy ordinary days without being force-fed heaping spoonfuls of acidic politics.
These kinds of aggressive tactics that politicize every part of life have come with tremendous costs. Generations of women increasingly resented their traditional roles as wives and mothers. Rising divorce rates fractured the stability of nuclear families. Divorced men abandoned their children. Children grew up without both male and female role models. Young adults entered the workforce before first acquiring basic social skills normally developed during childhood.
