Was listening to a NPR news radio talk show.
Some of the callers definitely had the idea the other side was evil. -

If you disagree with the leftist agenda and are white you are labeled as a “white supremacist”. If you are not white then you are a “race traitor”. Icons of American heritage are being attacked. Statues, paintings, even “America the Beautiful” sung by legendary singer Kate Smith has been removed from the seventh inning stretch by a MLB team because she sung “racist” songs early in her career. I have no sympathy for those on the left. They are enemies of both freedom and justice, including those Democrats now serving elected position in both houses of congress. Just like politics are local, so are civil wars. It pays to know who the enemies are in your area.

Those who see evil in the “other side” are often correct.
Too bad they are so blind to the evil on their own side. For instance, Democrats love Hillary. Too many Republicans still revere Bush and Cheney. When I look at the highest ranks of either party, I so few who are not Bad People.
The very most evil ones rarely even come to the awareness of most Americans, and are equal opportunity destroyers of lefties and righties alike. “Divide and conquer” is their favorite tool.

Possibly we obscure the facts of the matter by categorizing certain people according to the political party mantel. If we instead consider a straight line with total freedom (anarchy) on one end and total totalitarianism, to include socialism, communism, nazism, dictator, etc., most politicians today, regardless of party affiliation, fall more towards the totalitarian end. Most are also mostly disconnected from those who voted them into office and fail to keep the positions they stood on in the campaign. For instance, a majority of the American people believe immigration is a destructive force for the country and want illegal immigration stopped. That position is not reflected in activities being conducted by the representatives themselves.

Kinda hard to argue with what James said.
I do not think many of our political leaders see themselves as evil, and think they work for the people who elected them.
But they are in it first and foremost for themselves (i.e. a paycheck), and power. Then the lobby groups, and then maybe the people who elected them.
