That's why it's a bad category. The average american worker has more in common with a French worker than with an american millionaire.

At the end of the day yes. But it'd also be good start if normal Americans realised that american millionaires aren't part of their community and don't represent them. And the rich guys know that they'r a seperate group with different common interests. But they still claim to be American and that their goal is to make America great again.

The average French worker supports fascists?

Still better than our numbers, tbf.

Kinda yeah. So do the workers in the Netherlands, in Belgium, in Germany apparently, in Italy. People everywhere are getting poorer and instead of looking at the top 0.1% who are getting richer and richer, the people™ are looking at the poorest of us all, and at the migrants, and at the trans community for some reasons, as the culprits for all their woes. While the USA might be leading the way, most of the western world is going downhill.

Not enough Americans voted to state that average is supporting fascists

Only if you consider not voting for harries = supporting fascists, I’d say

Supporting or enabling, if you prefer.
