I do identify that way.

I think it's rare mostly because hating opponents is so much more appealing than parsing out the value offered by those you disagree with.

Most americans like football, football would suck if you didn't indulge in rooting for your team and against the other. So pretty much anybody who sees politics as sports is going to view it that "good team vs bad team" way.

If you want to make the country a better place then youre probably a centrist, but if your political focus is to identify things the opposition likes and ban them then youre more of an extremist.
