Not since the worst of the 2016 campaign slugfest silly season have I seen the MAGA Right go nuts. These days, two things have them completely consumed — Sydney Sweeney’s ass and the Cracker Barrel rebrand.
Let’s talk about Sweeney. Unlike Taylor Swift who was aghast that the Nazi MAGA Right tried to claim her as their “own,” Sweeney seems ok with that to a degree. She stays silent, at least.
A lot of why the MAGA Right loves her so much is they’re fucking Nazis and they like that she’s blonde. It also helps that she is all T&A as well. But the case could be made that it’s more about her being blonde than anything else.
MAGA Nazis sure do hate black and brown people. Someone on Twitter said that there were two reasons for MAGA: rich people did not want to pay taxes and conservative men couldn’t get laid.
I would suggest a third issue — racism and bigotry, pure and simple.
And that all comes about because of race insecurity. (Conservative) white people are freaking out that the USA will be minority majority soon and they would rather burn the country — and our democracy — to the ground than accept it. They really, really want a white Christian ethnostate.
I just have no solution to this problem, folks. These are macro issues we’re dealing with and there’s just no easy solution. Either we slide into autocracy or we have a revolution / civil war.
