This is how fascism and Nazism become vogue in society…and how societies go stark raving mad, to a truly terrible end.
Yes it is, but I so not subscribe to the idea that this has come about because people (young or old) have given up on traditional ideas — even though they have.
The rest of the story is that they have been told:
that the wealthy don’t deserve their wealth,
the Jews don’t deserve a homeland,
that Israel “occupies” and miss treats the islamic people of the Middle East.
And a bunch of other fabrications for years and no one has bothered to tell them they have been misled and lied to by their friends in the media.
