Yes. Terrified, as a block, that their power and influence is being stripped away. The myth of the Great Replacement theory is real to them. I actually find it difficult to empathize, because I do not identify with race and gender, although of course that enculturation is with me, and always will be.

And that, as you know, is the foundation of the insurrection of January 6.
