I think a lot of it has to do with technology. We're forming communities more with online people who confirm our beliefs than with people in the real world who might challenge our beliefs and force us into moderate positions. This has caused people to develop more extreme beliefs that go unchallenged in their online community. People then take these beliefs into the real world and are unable to deal with them being challenged. They treat the person like they would treat a troll online and use cancel culture techniques to block them.
If we're getting community online, then the cities, states, and countries become more and more irrelevant to your life. You no longer care what happens in your local area, only what people online think about it. I see it like we're forming our own countries on these platforms that are independent of local borders. Unfortunately, this plays perfectly into globalist desires for no countries and no borders.
