America: Land of the RUDE?

Are we, as a country beginning to lose our collective minds? When did it become okay and mainstream to be rude just because we don't agree? Whatever happened to quiet dignity? What ever happened to actions speaking louder than words? What ever happened to being a good sport when you don't win? Since the presidential election the far right have been fanatical with ranting lies, scare tactics and heckling the president instead of reinventing and creating solutions. Kanye West jumped on stage and stole the spotlight from Taylor Swift in what was an obvious, pathetic self promotional stunt. And Serena Williams scolding a line judge in front of a huge crowd and on live TV because she didn't agree with the call. I can see this being a trend and I am personally ashamed that some of us just can't seem to keep our cool. It's okay to speak your mind but where is the line when it comes to being rude.
