As someone who was raised catholic and went to catholic school, supporting MAGA is the least catholic thing you could do. That being said, Catholics are some of the best hypocrites out there. Spent years teaching me to “love everyone and judge not”, and then I watched them proceed to hate and judge everyone.

What is the MAGA message?

Nazis : cool

Rape : no big deal

Abortion : must be avoided at all costs, even death

Felon : awesome, you’re my president

LGBT : gross, you don’t need rights

Illegals : concentra…deportation

Minorities : you’re next

Women : get in the kitchen

Grifting the nation : good business

Constitution : we like part of it

Poor : slaves and pawns

Did I miss anything?

Something about vaccinations probably.

Catholics have a reputation. trump was a recuring theme in the Epstein files. Everything they say is a projected admission + they're constantly accusing trans folks of being pedos.

I'm not saying supporting maga is supporting systematic pedophilia, but I am saying the facts strongly imply it.

I'll just leave a link to a counterpoint site.

They also have a podcast summarizing all the articles if you prefer to listen.

Love 'em or hate 'em, MAGA's success in spreading their horrible and hateful ideas is actually impressive.

They have the advantage of stupidity. Truth is complex and mostly requires longer sentences to convey all nunces, while lies are simple and can be conveyed by just a couple of words.

You mean the answer to all of life’s problems isn’t just “immigrants”, “the gays”, or “woke”?

Sounds like liberal lies to me!

The right wing has embraced populism going back to the tea party movement in the late 2000s. The democrats are having a harder time embracing left wing populism because it scares away their big rich donors. That's always been a factor but more so now that corporate donations and dark money in politics makes those rich people so much more important for fundraising.
