> Your statement would imply that the massive support for Trump is only due to people wanting to protect their privilege
No, I was addressing a claim about why people are becoming violent in the context of the Capitol insurrection (which, while a large mob, is not a large or representative share of Trump supporters).
Why that narrow group is getting violent and why the much larger group of Trump supporters support Trump have no necessary relation; they are different effects and different groups of people, but if you want to change topics from the violent fringe to Trump support mother generally...
> You are denying reality by ignoring the vast swath of poor people that voted for Trump because he claimed he would address their needs.
Trump lost most decisively among the poor, and won the better-off. This is an undeniable fact.
43% of US poor voting for Trump (from your own link) is just going to be ignored?
By the way, you never addressed most of my original post, rather resorting to picking off one part with a snarky comment, somehow implying that it's obvious that censorship is the way to go and it's not worthy of debate.
