I didn’t say I held the beliefs in question. I am surprised that you don’t know anyone who did. I believe that there are are more “elites” who believe according to the view I outlined than there are people from the lower classes,not sure.
FTR: I not sure there are so many racists here. I think there are many people who don’t speak up against the occasional fit of racism for various reasons. I view protectionism differently from racism, although the two overlap quite easily and are often married in one line of primal defense of an entitlement posture.
