Eine neue Studie ergibt, dass eine große Mehrheit der Amerikaner Autoritarismus und politische Gewalt ablehnt, eine umfangreiche Minderheit jedoch einen Abzug von der Demokratie gegenüber einer Regierung unterstützt, die von einem starken Führer angeführt wird. Das Papier mit diesen Ergebnissen wurde als Vordruck auf dem Socarxiv -Server veröffentlicht.

“You have been offered a choice between liberty and freedom, and no, you cannot have both.”
—Brion Gysin
It has always been about 1/3 who support a strong leader. Same thing happened in 1933, and see where that led.
„When Adolf Hitler became Chancellor of Germany on January 30, 1933, the Nazi Party (NSDAP) had won 33.1% of the vote in the most recent national election.“
Whenever a nation begins decline, people become afraid; thus, the opportunity for an authoritarian who will say that s/he will „make it all better“, or „bring back our greatness“. These authoritarians always look for scapegoats.
This tendency is currently amplified in social media, further reinforcing said tendency.
A substantial minority is still a minority. The majority reject political violence & authoritarianism and support democratic government.
I believe every person in that minority was born into an abuse cycle that they identify as „just the way things are“.
I base that belief on the research and evidence in these books.
