On the last point: many/some Trump supporters commonly hold three beliefs-
- They are not racist
- Trump is not racist
- They all are Nationalists
Racism is a problem that stems much deeper than we might want to believe; its ingrained in our culture and every day we have to actively resist the urge to take the mental path of least resistance, generalizing the most complicated organizational structures that we know of. That said, I have made a generalization in this post, however my rationale is that being a Trump supporter is prescribing to an ideology with certain tenets, and it requires a certain perspective to align with those tenets.
