Is it really that inexplicable? Trump got millions of votes. 30% of the vote in France went to a right-wing party. There are a ton of people who think too much diversity is a problem in media. (Thankfully, no one outside of their circles takes them seriously, but still.)

Like, real talk, this whole culture war chud shit infects at least 30% of Anglos. (I'm lowballing here... don't want to know the real number.)
