It was lower and now went up to like, 16-17%.

In a normal society, that number should be close to zero not because of propaganda, but because people genuinely are happy in the society they're in.

Which clearly is not happening.

I'm assuming you read this elsewhere because your source does not have a comparrison number. So at present, there is nothing to indicate the number is rising. For all we know the number of people who agree with that type of violence could have been sitting at 16% for many years.

It isn't realistic to expect the number to be zero. There will always be radicals. Always. Even if we somehow create a perfect utopia, there will always be a handful of malcontents.

You literally could have just Googled it instead of trying to bad-faith your way to the position you want to believe, but whatever, I Googled it for you, there you go. The one poll I posted is not the only one that shows the trend. Civil war's a-brewing, fren.

I also didn't say zero, I said close to zero. Jesus Christ, if you're going to speak in bad faith you could at least try to be subtle about it. At least the assholes in the other threads would have the decency to use a motte-and-bailey. You're just lazily throwing out strawmen and obvious garbage.

Wow. You're an angry person. I had no ill intent. Just curiosity. Hope your day goes better.
