No examination of what might lead a person to become receptive to reactionary right-wing ideology, nope, they’re just Bad People because if they weren’t Bad People they wouldn’t be racist
Bad people are implicitly bad and can’t be redeemed which is why we need to work with Republicans? They can’t even keep their shit straight. The yardstick liberals use to measure reality is so tired and worn down it no longer has any markings on it. You could drop it off a cliff and you would lose nothing except the burden of carrying that useless thing.
I think it might be worth exploring why other downtrodden minority groups don’t gravitate toward fascist ideology when their material conditions are also being strained.
I agree, but on the other hand QAnon managed to attract a large contingent of non-white, young and other demographics that you wouldn’t traditionally associate with extreme right-wing conspiracy theories
I don’t think it was that large and that statement really demands some factual evidence to back it up.
There was talk about the unexpected diversity of the crowds in the past summer’s Q/Save the Children demonstrations and also how forms of Q spread among people like TikTok teens and yoga enthusiasts, but you’re probably right, I imagine the vast majority of the movement is still very white
Maybe a better example would be Western Muslims who become ensnared by reactionary Islamist groups
