What's your opinion on MAGA?

No idea what the hell it is.

Donald Trump's 2016 campaign slogal was Make America Great again, so the abbreviated form (M.A.G.A.) came to be used to refer to his supporters and related political contingents.

interesting, I believe it means to make the country's economy and government to actually represent and benefit the citizens, and not the bureaucracy. It did work for Argentina...

Supporting is fine. Worshipping, seeing little-no-flaw, is another matter. It's dangerous. You see this with Bernie and AOC supporters as well. The slightest criticism, of their chosen politician, throws them into a rage. MAGAs are not innocent of this, either.

That does remind me of the bernie bro that shot Steve Scalise back in 2017...

A variant of the phrase “Make America Great Again” was first popularized by Republican Pres. Ronald Reagan, who used “Let’s Make America Great Again” as one of several slogans for his 1980 presidential campaign.

Most MAGA are just people who believe in more traditional American values:

• Independence and self-reliance
  
• Equality
  
• Individualism
  
• Privacy
  
• Democracy
  
• Nationalism
  
• Meritocracy
  
• Innovation
  
• Consumerism
  
• Informality
  
• Time and Efficiency
  
• Limited Government
  
• Protection from censorship

Some of these values are also shared by non-MAGA. But the above is at the general core of MAGA.

MAGA does get a bit more specific in some sociopolitical areas such as:

• acknowledging the difference between biological males and biological females and allowing each their own space in events and typically private areas.
  
• the public education system should be academic focused and a clear distinction in roles between student and educator
  
• US citizens should be prioritized before any foreign affairs or foreigners
  
• anti-globalization
  
• the belief that multiculturalism isn't necessarily beneficial and in fact, can be quite harmful as it prevents unification
  
• voting is a sacred right, one that should not be taken lightly nor be easier to do (out of fear of fraud)

These lists aren't exhaustive by any means. They just provide some general examples.

BS. MAGAts DO NOT believe in any of those things. They do claim that they do. But they don't. They only believe in prejudice, anger and hatreds. The USA that they "believe" in has never existed. And should never exist. They DO want to recreate 1939 Germany in the USA.

There's A LOT to hate about manga and anime. The weebs who bash Western media, while blissfully ignoring the problems in anime, are insufferable.
- Very childish
- Horrible writing (MC wins with the power of friendship, deus ex machina, plot armor)
- unrelatable characters
- filler episodes
- fanservice
- sexist portrayals of women
- pedophilia
- fanservice (Yes it deserves to mentioned twice b/c it's THAT big of a problem
- ridiculous character design (do their eyes need to be that big?)
- Trying to be pron

99% of manga and anime is pure trash. Great stuff exists, but it's rare. The same applies to media in the West.

I feel that when the right get together. They are not as organized as the left. I also feel like half of it is fake. But I kinda feel like MAGA is like going back to the liberal 90's. And the left or right are the ones clutching their pearls.

Guarantee everyone here still lives with mommy and never had a job in their life. I'm about 99% sure of this.

America will be great when they are number 1 in everything. Number 1 in wealth, healthcare, safety, education, economy, quality of living, military, and freedom.

That ain't ever happening unless aliens abducted all our elite, lobbies, and business leaders. And roll back trash like "Living constitution" and state sovereignty

Also abduct the teacher union, many teachers, marxist, etc

So, So, many laws will have to be rolled back or deleted.

And even if you rolled america back to its golden age, theres still the matter of the 35-36 trillion debt...

And so, so very many people wouldn't want america rolled back to its golden age. Because it would crack down on everything that came out of the 60s, ending some social movements. And bringing back nuclear family, divorce shame, conformity, no more welfare.

And you'd need the food situation fixed, the medical industry straightened out... so, so much.

not neccecairely..
there is another model...

nucleair family divorse shame... etc yes.. but also YES to welfare..
one can have conservative values paired with moderately left policies..
-
you can have well funded public traffic, public education, that once sticks to train you for a job and all that...

it's often a missing party even in my nation where there is 30 to vote from..
conservative christian traditional moral values.. (to the point they indeed want to undo the 60s... but YES to left leaning economics.

Caring more about your own borders more than other countries borders is a good thing.

Uniparty is scared.

The right is more individualistic. The left is more herd mentality.

You've already seen it in action this year when the democrat DNC said nope, you vote biden or nothing. While the right had primaries.

Why does the right care so much about gun rights? Because the individual needs a gun to defend himself against the group or dangers.

But a leftist can be like "The group will protect me, so I don't need weapons. If we need guns, we will be given them or you should only have guns if you active military."

Literally unhinged.

2016 was like living under mustache man, this is what the TDS afflicted believe, and its why people this disconnected from reality should not be in control of anything.
