In reply to the discussion: ICE goons in Trump's Chicago "training ground" drag naked zip-tied children from their homes [View all]markodochartaigh
(4,262 posts)8. A third of the US is ok with this
or at least they are willing to ignore it if it is done by their side.
And a third of the US is opposed to it.
As to what it will take for a majority of the ignorant and apathetic third of the US to wake up, they will wake up when it affects them personally. But just because they wake doesn't automatically mean that they will understand what is wrong or what needs to be done about it. If they haven't been following how we got here, they will be easy victims to reich-wing propaganda.
That's one reason why it is so important for Democratic politicians, and everyone on the left, to keep up efforts to educate those who aren't already awake.
