    If it weren’t for the “blue maga” mention, I can take this comment seriously and agree with it 98%. Given that every cultlike Democrat that has ever existed wouldn’t outnumber the maga ones who currently live in a single county in Florida, this is a disingenuous term that destroys the credibility of anyone using it.

      I genuinely can’t parse your critique, but find it a funny and apt term for a certain type of person. Political merch cash cows and the “forever war but inclusive” corpos they fall in behind. Feels like the Cali governor is the next one they’re propping up, for a more concrete example. “I’m with her” t-shirts while Bernie was getting fucked over is another

        I don’t quite believe that you don’t get what you’re doing or what issue I have with the term “blue maga”. It’s obviously meant to compare rabid racist sociopaths to some democrat equivalent. Every trump supporter I’ve conversed with in my life has copped to zero negative facts about trump. Most they’d ever admit is “he doesn’t always hold back” or some shit. Meanwhile I’ve known many Democratic voters. Most of which aren’t even really that knowledgeable, and yet, they were always open to criticism of Democrats. They rarely make excuses for them. I’ve only known 2 people who like Biden and maybe 1 who liked Kamala. Almost universally, Democratic voters would be in favor of prosecuting Democrats who commit crimes. Meanwhile Republicans cover for a known rapist pedophile.

        What you’re intentionally doing is pretending there’s anything comparable about the two groups of voters. You know there’s not much there to compare. And because I know you must know this, you have given up your credibility. Pretty simple really.

          …one thing I am sure of is that you’re putting words in my mouth, assuming my intentions, and generally being an asshole. I never had any credibility, I’m a random fuckin shitposter like yourself. At least I know it! Really should know better than to engage too, but yes there are absolutely people delusional enough to deny the crimes of their chosen tribe wherever you look and your anecdotal bullshit is exactly the kind of “evidence” that lets them get away with it

            Like I said, when you used that term you knew what you were doing and I wouldn’t expect you to drop the pretense now.

            Lmao just noticed your claim that I’m the same as a pedophile cover-upper because I accurately conveyed the demeanor of people I’ve known in real life.

              I am glad, even proud, to still have no idea what your problem is lol. Enjoy downvoting every reply I’ve been baitied into wasting on you, not feeling the need to reciprocate that is enough of a win for me

                You know exactly what my problem is. Both before and after I expanded on it. Contrary to your “you’re a troll just baiting people” claim, you can rest assured this is the last time you will hear back.

                  I very much do not. That’s a question for a team of well-equipped therapists, or maybe a university research department
