    how long I can believe that my fellow humans are capable of believing this.

    stop assuming they’re stupid and start realizing that they see in his corruption a chance to do a little bit of corruption of their own, maybe some political violence, all the absolute worst urges in them. they see in him the real liberty they’ve been seeking: the freedom to harm others and enrich themselves. they claim to believe, but really they’re just relying on the fact that you can’t actually go into their brains and prove that they don’t.
