Americans are guilty of blissful ignorance.

Have you forgotten 1939, Maddison Square Garden event (https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/americans-hold-nazi-rally-in-madison-square-garden), where American citizens were cheering Nazis?
Nazis are among Americans and Jan 6th has revealed that it is a scary and growing number.
I reckon half of the USA citizens wanted the authoritarian (read fascist) regime to take hold.
And the same half of the country, since they've lost, are hiding their true desires, pretending to support Ukraine. But deep down inside all they want is Trump to be BFF with Putin and kill democracy as tenuous as it currently is.

And those who suddenly flip-flopped on supporting Ukraine I loathe the most.
