Any ex-MAGAs willing to share that mindset?

She's a vapid loser. She had to pay people to perform at her rallies and appear on shows w/Sharpton. Maybe people should have, it might have worked.

But to the PPs point no other presidential
Candidate has people in trucks with images of another president hog tied in the back or huge flags- trump is different.


But the progressives do wear their own identifying garments (keffiyeh), have their chants and special language, and are as intolerant as the MAGA.

There are two cultist groups in this country now, but because this is DCUM the progressive cultists don’t see their own cult.
Those progressives are HS teenagers and college age who are expressing youth rebellion. They will grow out of it. The Trump cultists are middle age grown adults.


A man at my workplace wore a shirt TO WORK that said "Protect Trans Youth". That's not cultist?


Who exactly is the leader of this protect trans youth cult? There isn’t one. You can’t just call everything you don’t agree with a cult. Maga is a cult because they have a leader whom they bow down to and can do no wrong in their eyes.


There is no "leader" requirement to be considered a cult. A cult refers to religious worship or an enthusiastic devotion to a person, idea or thing. (Go look up the definition). So you can stop with your "there is no leader" nonsense.


Here’s the definition copy/pasted:

A cult is described as a system or group of people who practice excessive devotion to a figure, object, or belief system. Its characteristics include having a leader that preaches an explicit belief system or ideology and who is followed by unquestioning believers.

Evidence of MAGA being a cult is their devotion to Trump and unquestioning belief in him. The way they can deflect, shift blame, distort reality in order to justify anything he does or says.

Wearing a shirt that supports a marginalized group is not a cult. It’s simply a stance. There is no central figure that has a chokehold on them. They just support trans youth. They might have a trans loved one. They might not.

I can’t believe I have to spell this out for you, and chances are, you still won’t understand the difference.

MAGA ≠ Republicans


Plz explain


Who really cares?! The majority of the country voted for Trump and he won. Can we please move forward?




Ok, then yes, half the country is a cult,
Including your republican neighbors who told you they aren’t voting for Trump. They did. So did many of your other friends and family.


Not everybody who voted for Trump is in the cult. MAGA is, though. We’ll see what happens going forward given Trump’s poor health and old age.


Still waiting on someone to explain maga vs republican.


Me too. I'm not sure there's a difference at this point, MAGA is the GOP. until firmly ousted by the GOP


Republicans who did not vote for Trump are not MAGA or in a cult. Republicans who are loyal to the party and country over Trump are not maga. Republicans who support him only because they are being bribed or blackmailed by Trump are not maga (and I believe there are many).


lol ok if maga means we are republicans who voted for Trump, then I guess we all are maga, plus a lot of democrats and independents too. Whatever. Feel free to ask us policy questions but drop the cult accusations, yall sound unhinged. People aren’t in a cult because they believe different things than you do in terms of the role of government in our lives.


You guys are simply not understanding. It stopped being about politics and government a long time ago. Trump is a terrible person. A monster. He ruins lives. He is a crook, sexual predator, bigot, con man. The fact that you can’t see the MOUNTAINS of evidence to prove each of these things - that’s what points to you being in a cult.

It is not about republicans vs democrats anymore. There are plenty of republicans who would be fine in the White House. I wouldn’t agree with most of their policies, but we can bounce back from bad policies. Trump is going to dismantle everything this country was founded on. We can’t recover from that.


It is indeed sad that the Democrats were so bad that a man as terrible as Trump was preferable, yes.


Nope. Whatever you think of democratic leadership is irrelevant. Of course there will be opposition from the other side. That’s how it works. But there are plenty of other republicans you could have put on the ticket. It should be your party’s best and brightest. But you chose someone as terrible as Trump (your words). You can’t blame the dems for that.

I voted for him in 16 and then now I’m a never Trumper. He didn’t actually do anything he said he would and then I got straight out of that cult. It’s like there’s selective hearing and you just hear what you want and anything outside that is just oh he’s just being Trump or he doesn’t actually mean that. He seems so much uglier as a person now so I don’t know how people can just write it off.
