That is the thing that disinformation takes advantage of ... the anxiety of not having a narrative to make sense of a world that has changed. The disinformation makes people crave an outer authority to make a complicated world seem easy to digest.
An example is people with kids; as they become consumed with work and family they lose touch with popular culture.
Culture always moves ... and then those people's kids come home from high school one day acting out new music, style, gender, politics ... the parents will backlash against it causing the common parent/child coercive relationship that happens frequently in family dynamics. That is because the parents were dis-informed about the shifting cultural playground that youth has become for over a century. And that change made the parents feel vulnerable and they at times respond authoritatively because they are out of touch and losing control.
Trump created a political environment where he targeted people that felt that same sense of power erosion, which is really cultural expansion, and has confused them into giving up any sense of pursuit of happiness for sense of security.
And now they are stuck here with us saying that this is not what they voted for because they were dis-informed.
