Just my two cents--I feel like this same 25-35% of the population that has always been with us--slavers, KKK, Nazis, racists, authoritarians, MAGA--I don't think this era we're in is particularly unusual. We're just more aware of them, because our news comes from more heterogeneous sources.

Please include Nation of Islam leaders Elijah Muhammad and Louis Farrakhan who amplified the antisemitism of the Christian Gospels and whose bigotry against White people is the ideological flip side of KKK bigotry against Black people.
