What should we do about "them"?

[Fake Messiah]

Those of us on the left are waking up to the fact that the crazy isn't going to just go away now that Trump is out of the White House. Qanon is still here, and as strong as ever. White Supremacists are basking in the warmth of a new sun, even in the absence of Trump.

The thing is that "they" want to present this situation as much more serious than it really is, it is in their interest for people to see them as a bigger threat than they are. They are mostly incompetent twits in not such big numbers.

Now, of course, it doesn't mean that there is no crisis.
Everyone has their ideas of what is "that psychological crisis" deep in the society that has brought/ elected Trump. To me, it seems that "that crisis" is the religious crisis. That Christians and other religious people are aware that their arguments for God do not stand in this new religious debate that has started at the end of the 20th century. They are scared shitless and their reaction is to cling to God no matter what the means are and going deeper into fundamentalism. So no wonder that they see Trump as some Christian messiah who will bring them into the past.

Like some people blame the Internet, but if you look at documentaries, like "Jesus Camp", you can see those fundies don't need the Internet: they meet and teach children that the government is their enemy because it "took away god from the school", that they teach evolution, and similar. And many moderates don't exactly condemn them because they are equally scared and are equally clueless on what the solution for keeping god would be.
