I don't know if they mean "they agree with it" as in "they agree that it is a good thing and needs to be pushed" or if they mean "it exists"

More than 40 percent said having a ‘strong leader’ was more important than democracy and that ‘native-born white people are being replaced by immigrants’ — a racist belief known as the ‘great replacement theory’.

Okay so apparently they mean it does exist and it should be opposed. Which (apparently) is racist. I find it humorous that they just ascribe the "racist" appellation with no explanation why. "JUST BELIEVE YOU PLEBE"
