I’m just trying to understand. Erdogan in Turkey, Putin in Russia, Orban in Hungary etc… Why do these leaders still get so much support after all they’ve done? What do they exactly like about them?
Aren’t these people seeing a massive drop in their quality of life?
People love having an “enemy” to blame for all their problems.
Throughout history it was often the Jewish people. But immigrants, LGBT, racial minorities work just as well.
Life is inherently unfair. Some people are born into money and never have to work a day in their lives. Others work hard everyday and get almost nothing in return.
It where things like heaven/hell, karma, reincarnation etc. come from. Don’t worry that life sucks there’s a big cosmic force that’ll balance the scales at some point.
We crave something to blame for that injustice and they jump on that.
