Then how did their representatives get into their offices?
By having a minority vote them in. Voter turnout is notoriously low in many southern states, especially the reliably red ones.
so it's not their fault they choose to let the "minority" rule? these blameless, hard working, moral, salt of the earth silent majority that let these terrible people act as their representatives?
You're completely discounting the struggles of the many people that have fought their entire lives against persecution and for self determination. There is a long and storied history of this in the US south and it continues today. Just because the job isn't done yet doesn't mean nobody's working to stop fascism.
