Sweden is becoming extremely polarized, it's hard to have any opinions somewhere down the middle since most people don't accept them. The extreme right and extreme left are helping one another grow by pushing harder and everyone caught in the middle feels like they need to choose sides, to some extent anyways.
The public debate has turned almost completely away from actual focus on issues and has become a pot-shot bonanza of semantics and moral and philosophical gobble gobble on who is the smartest, kindest, most realistic, most altruistic, economically sound, future-proof and tolerant/intolerant.
I thought Norway was polarized when I lived there; I was actually shocked to find out how bad it was here in Sweden and I often feel uncomfortable discussing things since people have incredibly thin skin and are very easily offended, especially on others' behalf, there's also a vast wellspring of double standards that people pour out on a daily basis, most without realizing it (or, at the very least admitting to it).
