"Critiques"

Interesting

So other than responding disagreeably to a critique, what other features? Or just that?

I ask because this type of Hillary Clinton DNC-consultant crap you're screenshotting in this text message has been following Democrats around for quite a while now, consuming their money and providing only failure in return, but MAGA is kind of an incongruous term to use to describe it. Like when I think of MAGA I don't normally think of things like this; right?

There's the Trump cult and the Dem cult. The Blue MAGA are the ones that defend any and all criticism of the Democratic Party, to a cult-like status.

Interesting. I think it goes without saying that I don't think this text message is an example of defending any and all criticism of the Democratic Party.

I did a search through comments for the term "Blue MAGA." Most people aren't using it like you said. Most people are using it to refer to the Democrats in general; e.g.:

  • "Or ask any Blue Maga what specific immigration reforms they want. They want the same thing, they just have minor disagreements on how to get there or even just aesthetics."
  • "Democrats are just blue MAGA and the only option to fix this country is to burn it down."
  • "lol blue maga is using red maga's scare tactics to get their favorite pants shitting geriatric to win a popularity contest."

... and so on. I was just curious, though. Carry on.

The post is saying "if you don't like Biden then you are a Trumper." That's Blue MAGA cult like behavior.

How many text messages do you get from them, and how many posts have you made on lemmy.world evangelizing for your chosen viewpoint on the exact same issue in various ways, to try to spread it to others, and to disparage people who disagree with you?

Let's say the count of each one over the span of the last three days.

I get multiple Dem "give us money" texts and calls daily.

How many blue MAGA ones, though, over the last three days? I can total up the posts of yours that I'd describe as clearly evangelical to your viewpoint, if you don't want to. IDK, maybe you should do it, since you might not agree with how I would categorize the evangelical ones.
