MAGA communism has shed its original form, and gone from a trend which was firmly connected with its original name; to a phenomenon

It's still not even a trend, it's still like 500 people who astroturf shit online.

I occasionally come across these people on reddit, and every single one of them seems like they're in a cult. It's fucking bizarre.

People that want communism just become communist, people that want MAGA just become MAGA people. There is like no overlap irl. Especially with the red scare brainwashing so deeply ingrained in the us.

The words MAGA communism doesn't even make sense, no communist would consider America great at any point in history

[–] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

America was great before white people showed up.

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It wasn't called America back then think-about-it

damn this guy had promise for a little while like four years ago

[–] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 14 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Yeah he used to be good up until around 2023 (especially about Ukraine War) but now he's into hypertriumphalist fall of capital, quoting Haz more than Marx and Lenin combined and projecting internet only presence into reality. I mean i wouldn't fucking expected a dude with so much media literacy to join the terminally online ACP grift but alas.

EDIT: Aaaand he finally went and lost it completely. RIP Rainer

Who is he? The name is familiar

[–] miz@hexbear.net 14 points 2 days ago

just a poster I remember who was banned from iirc medium

[–] freagle@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 2 days ago

It was clear he was on this path a couple years back, it just took him longer than expected to get there. He was writing some obviously bad faith shit for a long while.

[–] thelastaxolotl@hexbear.net 17 points 2 days ago

He been for a while it looks like, i only remember him like yesterday when some moots started making fum of him because he said Hitlerism was against the American nation

just another american that wants to do american exceptionalism with red vibes

[–] hotcouchguy@hexbear.net 13 points 2 days ago

Absolute delusion, I think this guy is living in a completely different timeline. Not only does he completely re-define central terms like "MAGA" and "communism" and "the left", every political observation is at odds with offline reality. I don't think it even counts as incorrect when it's this fully detached from anything recognizable.

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

At least for a couple years, to my memory. He was posting some deranged shit for a while before that, too.

[–] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 9 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Alright, I just haven't been paying attention then. Thanks!
