Democracy cannot function when people no longer believe that their opponents are acting in good faith. It’s a prelude to secession or civil war.

And, when there's concrete evidence that a faction has not been acting in good faith for half a century at the least?

One side has concrete evidence.

The other side just "says".

These are not the same.
