>>"So many of us are trying to figure out what's going on with young white men these days. Something is really getting to a lot of them, and turning them to the far right."

It isn't just "White" and it isn't just "men". I've seen this happening to people from multiple countries, cultural races, and skin colors (including global South countries - for example: India and its Zionism-like Hindutva philosophies). Its happening in South America, Africa, all over the world. And this ALSO applies to WOMEN (and the men with such ideologies that they support).

That needed saying and people who still listen to the mainstream gossip on FB etc (even though they have given up the broadsheets) are too inclined to believe this "white" narrative and not see it as the all "races", all genders, ethno-cultural group it is - in short, a class, although almost no one is going to admit to that in the G7 these days. But when the "C" word is verboten, phrasing it as you did at least helps to loosen the hold of the MSM narrative and for that we must all be thankful.

I believe you. Damn! How do we create and work towards a compelling vision that will bring these people along?

I've noticed something about MAGA women, at least the ones who appear in photographs. Like 97% of them are blonde. Is this because the racism element makes them want to look Aryan (most are blonde-out-of-a-bottle)?
