nostr:npub1hmmjfah37m94fycvyw42y0mrnw96ke73948n03fmfr5gj2fs77xq0juy2s that kind of makes sense. So much of strong man politics, caudillismo in Spanish, is about group identity and the desire to have a sense of belonging and there is a single father figure who will make it all ok. And one way to unify the group is to pick scapegoats who can be blamed for what’s wrong in people’s lives.
