Several years ago, shortly after Donald Trump was elected president, I got into a discussion with a progressive relative on Facebook. She had posted that she earnestly wanted to know how anyone could vote for him. She found it troubling, but wanted to understand, so she was putting this message out to anyone who might know someone who voted for him. I responded. She may have been surprised that someone she’d known for years had actually voted for him. Then the “discussion” began.
Funny. I had the same experience reviewing Eric Hoffer's great book, "The True Believer". I gave it a 5-star review. It should be more widely read and known. I said that the author demonstrates the equivalence of the left-wing extremist, the right-wing extremist, the atheist extremist, and the religious extremist - all equally problematic for society. They gave me the same warning they gave you. This from the website that is still selling Mein Kampf and the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. Hypocrites.
