      I’m still not clear what the first “A” in maga is supposed to reference, seeing what’s happening these days. All I know is that it’s clearly not “America” or a reference to the US.

        It’s the “G” that’s confusing you. “Great” in this context means “Christian White Nationalist.”

        Aryans

        as in Make Aryans Great Again which I get as a valid concern for them because of how pathetic and hateful right-wing white nationalist jerks are. I mean have you ever actually spent 5 minutes listening to JD Vance? I can feel my masculinity deflating in real-time into a weird smelly ingrown hatred of women and I have to shut if off before my skin begins to crawl…

        spits on ground

        Oops look at me I meant to spit on A’murica but I must have missed because I hit stolen indigenous land that was brutally and horrifically stolen from the hands of normal, good people who looked a bit different and lived in funny houses.

        …and then twice stolen from immigrants who came here and were desperate (and at times foolish) enough to believe they would be included in the prosperity they spent extraordinary amounts of effort building…

        … (or they were just kept in chattel slavery/a series of disgusting echoes of it)

        Third time is the charm?
