    Nope, still not maga territory.

    Keep trying. Maybe work some Photoshop or something.

    You show me one picture, just one, that matches the cult 45 crap.

    I’ll be waiting.

      I’m not going to try to equate Democrats with MAGA cause they’re not the same. Trump poses a threat to democracy. But I’m not going to pretend that there aren’t a plethora of violent extremist on both sides. Moreso, the dangers don’t come from what they choose to wear or tattoos they get.

        Winner!

        Great, we’ve established “blue maga” is a complete nonsense term for something that doesn’t exist, because they are not the same.

        But I’m not going to pretend that there aren’t a plethora of violent extremist on both sides.

        Violence? Sure. Violence has existed throughout the history of humanity, its not going to disappear in a mere handful of years.

        Violent extremists? Lol no. You just posted up protests, including references to violent acts that had been found to have been committed by right wing maga extremists who were trying to start a race war. Their stupid idea, not mine, that was their intent.

        Please, list for me the violent extremist groups that are Democrat groups, equivalent to Patriot Front and the like.

        And then also see of you can pick out the difference in the reasons behind the violence, and who it was who initiated.

          You do realize blue MAGA is just a nickname? It isn’t saying that they are literally the same in this nonsense argument you’re trying to make. Like you might say someone drank the Kool-Aid to refer to someone that acts like a cult member, but that doesn’t mean that they literally drank poisonous Kool-Aid poured by Jim Jones. You see how that works there? They prob don’t teach that in Hebrew school.

          Are you really so blind that you think Seattle, Portland, etc are all ran by MAGA and that Antifa is a MAGA led operation?

            So its a nonsensical and stupid nickname, intended to create a false equivalency?

            I’m shocked. Just… Shook to the core.

            Are you really so blind that you think Seattle, Portland, etc are all ran by MAGA and that Antifa is a MAGA led operation?

            Please point to where that claim was made.

            Yeah, I can’t find it either, because that’s not what I said. Thanks for trying!
