There are always ppl thriving under fascists regimes. The chosen sycophant few. The rest exist in fear and misery.

Polls asking Chileans what they thought of Pinochet, 40% had a positive view of him. In the 1932 elections, the Nazi party got 37% of the vote. Hitler's popularity grew after he took office. Dictatorships are usually able to garner at least 40% approval with 20% no opinion and 40% against.

Not sure what point you are trying to make… this data doesn’t show that people approve of dictators or that they make people’s lives better fascists control info so ppl are cut off from critical news. & ppl get disappeared for objecting to despots, would they say the truth in a state survey?

I could go on. In general about 30% of a population has a net preference for authoritarian leadership… Satisfaction ratings must be analysed in context. In a past life I always told clients that less than 80% satisfaction was a problem
