Not your screen monkey (he/him)
I can say that and I do say that. I follow politics pretty closely; given the forum rules, I won't post specific examples, but this exact kind of thing happens ALL THE TIME--very public disputes over very stupid and trivial stuff, among the people who govern entire nations*.
We're just a microcosm, and a fairly benign one at that.
I was going to say, the gaming sniping has nothing on the flamewars that erupt over presidential politics. Just look at any news website that allows comments on articles. You'll see it with anything with political implications from electoral politics, to tax policy, to crime and punishment.
