    Which means 15m people don’t mind being fascists, which functionally is the same as they actively want to be fascists.

    But hey at least they don’t want to be Canada… I guess?

      I know it’s easy to say that they don’t mind being fascists but I’ve been talking to a lot of relatives and I believe it’s more of a mix of being misinformed, passionate and then on top of that disadvantaged. Resulting in a type of apathy that allows them to stand by.

      They don’t register the threat the way you and I might, just like in Germany they will fold into the fascist party all the same.

      In Germany they had a name for these kind of people, it was still Nazi.
