The belief that the country is on a downward slope fuels the appeal of radicalism.

    No literally people are morons that don’t think or care about what happens around them. It’s not about disagreeing, it’s also on simple facts of reality. Antivaxxers is an example. Fascists is another. But there are more than it is possible to state here. More than half the population are either ignorant or misguided about the simplest things.

      I agree. But just calling an antivaxxer or a fascist stupid do not solve anything, if not make thing even worse.

        Acknowledging the problem is the first step to solve it.
        It doesn’t help to call donkeys horses.
