We had a nice long chat about it, and about the many differing points of view and interpretation of the MAGAt term last year.
So, yeah, it’s actually a matter for discussion rather than just being taken for granted.
For the record, I use it (and admitted to doing so in that thread) when I’m trying to be deliberately insulting to that group, which I do distinguish from the term “conservatives” and even “Republicans” though right now in the US the difference is tiny and decreasing every day.
