    And those 74 million people are far-right extremists and in no way “Moderate.”

    That’s the point. That’s the Overton Window.

      When they vote for, and are ok with open arms for far right extreme shit, what should it be called?

      I know some people might seem to be normal and perhaps moderate, but when you sit down with them and explain some of this shit to them, and they basically are ok with it because they feel the bad shit will only impact other people and not themselves (for example religious persecution - “I’m Christian so I’ll be fine”) what does one call that?

        One calls that bigotry because that’s exactly what it is. They’re bigots and prejudicial against other religions and I’d wager races as well.
