Are labels just stupid pieces of tape? So they have any value or are we just saying “maga” for no good reason?
Do you take them at any value?
Is any different of opinion the same as maga? I’m not desperate to defend anyone I'm pointing out how desperate it seems you are to difference them… to point this this out… you sound very desperate to call others “maga” for your own purpose not theirs…
You sound more crazy by labeling others… you sound crazier by doing that than actual magas…
Your English also seems to be slipping a lot in your desperation. Might want to fix that.
What the heck does this even mean?
Do you have reading comprehension problems that you're still trying to claim I am labeling people with a different opinion as MAGA? This all sounds like you're arguing in bad faith by putting words in my mouth.
Firstly, you seem to be confused or ignoring my whole point about Blue MAGA not being the same as MAGA. Secondly, I was just telling you the definition you asked for, not putting labels on anyone.
And here you have no problem labelling me crazier than MAGA while attacking anyone comparing some of the DNC supporter's attitude with that of MAGA. Sure doesn't sound like you're desperately defending them or anything.
My English has nothing to do with this… you assign a name not me… you call folks maga with zero meaning that’s not me and you’re the one with zero reasons
You're barely making any sense now.
