Yeah people talked about how "there's a billion Muslims!" all the time, as if all of them were personally dedicated to serving as soldiers to invade the US. That's not hyperbole btw, that's literally what people believed.
Yes if a billion people want us dead, we’d be dead.
Last time I looked into it, it was around 1.5 billion worldwide.
I just checked again; estimates in 2020 were around 1.9 billion.
And yeah, it's silly to believe that that many people would be a monolith.
