Our elites understand this, but they don't like and are scared of it. Some leftists understand this, and they are either the ones who call every old granny who is a Republican a fascist or a white supremacist (we have a lot of those around here) or they are the ones who are slowly starting to realize that a Joe Biden win is even scarier for them than a Donald Trump win (such as Matt Taibbi, who basically endorsed Donald Trump in possible one of the even crazier things of 2020).
