    Personally, I find it far more terrifying how utterly stupid and gullible the average person is.

    and half of all people are even dumber.

      Okay while I get your point, teeechnically according to these numbers, the “average person” plus some would not support Trump. Something something silver lining?

      Yeah the last few years since Covid especially have taught me that however utterly stupid and gullible we thought people were as you said, it turns out they are WAY stupider than we ever dreamed possible. And THAT is what is terrifying to me - I already knew people were plenty dumb so to see firsthand how badly I overestimated them…
