    I think it would be cooler to just steal MAGA from them

    pretend we have no idea what they mean if they accuse us of taking it

    just fully gaslight an entire political party lmao

    edit:

    we could even keep the exact same font and color scheme and everything. damn, that would be so funny

    every time we see a maga hat: “hell yeah man! Woman in the white house lets gooo!”

    I think we could do it, it cant be that hard to gaslight trump voters. Everybody else is doing it

      I think we could capture the entire college base by just making Keep America Great - KEG hats. Start a tik tok trend of people doing keg stands or whatever while talking about how the progressive rights we’ve accomplished are pretty cool, and we should keep moving in that direction

      All of this is dumb, don’t drink and lemmy

              Friend goes to refill drink, other friend is on phone responding to wife, and other friend is in bathroom. Browse lemmy, fastest dopamine hit, get funny idea, write it out while someone sets up the next round of Mario golf. Only realize later that the idea is shit

      I want to see that with terms like “Social Justice Warrior” and “Woke” too.

      Help them realize what they think of as an insult is…actually kind of a positive thing.

      The problem with that plan is that the slogan is designed to play into palingenetic ultranationalism.

      Better to wait and buy merch that’ll actually benefit the campaign instead of some dropshipper on amazon.

        I mean Tate’s entire “get rich quick” classes are just about dropshipping anything and everything. As another poster said, avoid all the trash, and buy stuff if and when it supports the actual campaign

    I think it would be best if we just avoided the whole cult mentality thing, personally.

      Maybe she could spin that, too? Like she’s a bad girl, “Muy 'Mala” or something. That probably has too much of a sexist bent to it (in taken like she needs to be punished, she could probably spin that back at Trump again too, in that he needs to be punished), and probably too “sexy” in some of the more positive associations (romantically “baaaad”).

      But overall, it could capture an audience who appreciates the inclusion of simple and understandable bits of a language a huge facet of American people speak on the daily. I don’t know, like friendly bits of inclusion flying back in the face of grotesque, obtuse exclusion?

      Edit: I am partaking a bit and my high ass thinks I should frame this. Like the next pillar in the Character Counts set or something. OMG does anyone remember Character Counts?? Fairness and responsibility first come to mind.

    What’s so special about MALA outside of it being related to her name and MAGA?

      Republicans were also uncomfortable with her (a woman) laughing (they shouldn’t do that), so that might have something to do with it.
