Every society can fall to fascism when the conditions are right. Humans are pack animals and susceptible to mass delusion.
I know these numbers, rationally this is not news, but emotional I just can't believe this is true. Would I also be one of those supporters if I were born somewhere else? Are these people really like you and me?
I grew up in a fairly conservative household. I used to read the rags my parents considered newspapers, people in my social circles and schools were mostly middle to upper class, and I idolized my father.
It took me a long while to realize I was seeing through distorted glasses, even after I started mingling with different viewpoints.
There always was a gut feeling that something didn't add up, cognitive dissonance maybe.
I sometimes wonder what kind of person I'd be had I not been high on the neurodivergent spectrum and pushed on the outside.
Privilege and social echo chambers make for pretty efficient blindfolds.
Yes exactly this. But even worse is that people's opinions and pov on life shift during their life, also to the 'wrong' side. Am I good person for actively speaking up against the palastinian genocide, or am I just one of the lucky ones that haven't gotten blindfolded (yet).
Keep questioning and the answer will be no.
