Educational background also played a role. Far-right views were more prevalent among respondents with a high school diploma or less at 24 percent, compared to 19 percent of those with a college degree.

I’m going to say something huge.
We are a social species.
If people are raised, or live in isolation they are far more susceptible to bad ideas/ways of thinking/ideologies, & severe mental health issues. (I would know I’ve lived my own version of COVID for 23 years)
Many rural people can live decades without seeing other vastly different people from them. Espefially if they stay in their home or town without genuinely interacting with people different from them
All this, mixed with boredom of nothing to do in rural, breeding racism overtime, & giving a “rural family” feel to MAGA united them overtime but in worst ways possible
For ones that can be changed they need to be befriended by other white people and shown the truth then gradually introduced to better ways of thinking, and other people
Its a tragedy the country left so many people behind over all these decades. They would have been a lot different if no one was left behind
For the world I don’t know how bad it is but hopefully not as bad as our situation
