Once, politics was something you debated and moved on from. Today, it can redraw the boundaries of who we call a friend.

We explore how political identity has evolved into moral identity, how social media turns differences into declarations, and why disagreement now feels like disloyalty.
Is friendship about shared values or shared history? Can empathy coexist with conviction?
