    But, in that hypothetical, it would be true to say that 70% of Americans support fascism. Which is unpleasant to have to accept.

    I learned at the Brexit referendum that 52% of my countrymen are so racist they’d wreck their own economy to reduce immigration. I have to live with that. I live in a racist country.

      That (and the trump election actually) was only possible with a massive amount of disinformation and populism. I don’t think everyone that voted like that was properly informed.
