Although I feel that talking politics (and religion) can be extremely dangerous because everyone feels differently AND it can destroy friendships in a heartbeat, I think your comment above would be as simple and digestible by everyone world wide.
But in my experience, I haven't seen it. In California, I would consider the population to be EXTREMELY open minded, but I still know people who grew up here, who have had the experience of being surrounded by a culture that is potentially among the most diverse in the world who attend churches that (IMHO) teach HATE in its most grotesque form. The things that you have written above I have spoken of, only to be screamed at in my face by "Friends". I have often wondered what the actual credentials are of the people who are standing up in front of these congregations and are telling them outright that other people's sexual orientations is something they must FIGHT ON THE STREET. That a woman's body doesn't belong to her and that she should be punished for going against a book written thousands of years ago. That the threat of changing global weather patterns aren't real because "God won't let us hurt ourselves". Their sheer hatred of people of other colors, country's, religious beliefs or basic idea is utterly disgusting.
And more sad than ANY OF THIS is the fact that people won't even make an educated decision of who they will vote for. Instead their answer is "My grandpappy was a (fill in blank, red or blue), my daddy was _______, I'm a ______ and that's who I vote for!".
It's these reasons why American's are the laughing stock of the world. They have a voice and a vote, but they are so uneducated and foolhardy that this is what they do with it. Or of course they don't vote at all.
Lastly, they put a curtain on the voting booth for a reason. So you could go and privately make your choise. That anonymity helped keep friends and family from infighting. But today everyone wants to vomit their opinion in anothers face via social media or straight punching them out. Yet another thing this modern society has lost with this wonderful new technology.
