Again, not popular anymore at that point.
To prove the point you seem to ba making, you'd need to find a quote that backs the notion they were never popular
At some point people gushed over Mel Gibson, then his crazy was made public and he lost favour. Could I take his popularity numbers from 5 years ago and pretend he wasn't super famous ever?
Op claims they were popular for a while and then not. You seem to take evidence from the "then not" part of the story and seemingly use it to prove they were never popular
It was literally at the peak of the Bund's popularity - which is pretty damning for anyone claiming that they were popular.
So when someone claims that the Bund was popular, citing an event, and I cite the actual details of that same event showing that the accusation of popularity is highly dubious, the burden of proof is on me.
Is that what you're saying?
I didn't realize "When the biggest event they ever manage to have is outnumbered by counterprotesters 5-1 maybe they just aren't that popular in the country" was such a huge leap of logic.
