i remember being shocked when gof came out because his circle of death eaters was less than 40 people total. but i think those were just the closest/"most loyal" people to him, and i assumed there were others who joined who were less official, or participated out of fear.

Also we find out in the next book that some couldn't make it due to imprisonment. Although the overall remaining number of inner-circle folks was low, yeah.

I agree that his initial campaign was likely one of fear, with people stepping in line to preserve themselves. We see some of that in the final book. Which is kinda the point. Toxic regimes have a handful of powerful or manipulated loyalists and then masses trying to survive within that system.

Unpopular opinion but I was bummed that FB flopped because I find Grindelwald's character and campaign more nuanced and historically relevant. I always wondered if Grindelwald was an orphan, too. Anyway we'll never know because of bad screenwriting, transphobia, and Johnny Depp.
