Populism is just being a lazy fuck and don’t even start to search for any solutions. And being a lazy fuck is the primary problem with all those nazi fans in Germany.
Populism is simple explanations meant for simple people.
Same reason why Religion got so popular and it’s still so popular: it gives people the simple <deity> did it explanation for things which would be way harder for one to feel they understood if they got the Scientific explanation.
