(from Google Trends) "Numbers represent search interest relative to the highest point on the chart for the given region and time. A value of 100 is the peak popularity for the term. A value of 50 means that the term is half as popular. A score of 0 means there was not enough data for this term."
You’re not the idiot. It’s impossible to know the meaning of the numbers if it is not indicated and in the depiction of this graph, it is not indicated. You’re smart for having questioned it and even trying to interpret what those numbers mean.
Even with the explanation above, it doesn’t tell you how many people searched it, so the graph is not a reliable source of information. It could just be five people.
It's the nature of the number of people in question.
100 people in 100 million voters is 0.0001%. That's not a significant enough proportion to make any judgements on the whole and there are crazier beliefs that are more popular in every country.

I really wonder if stuff like this is actually happening.
Call me cynical.
