I just discovered this in the last few days.

First I noticed a proponent of HAMAS and Palestine is a blogger often on Twitter named Jason Hinkle. A few days ago someone was calling him both a communist and conservative which to be honest confused me. I noticed it again this morning so I searched it up and indeed he calls himself a “MAGA-Communist”.

On initial examination it seems absurd, but from this article it makes some weird sense. Essentially the elites have ruined the lefts appeal to people with their ridiculous and deadly WOKE ideals of sex changes, trans, anti-family, open borders etc etc. Communists claim Trump started with MAGA a new “class struggle” of common people against the ruling coalition of elitists like Dorsey, Bezos and all their deep state political elites like Clintons, Biden’s, Bushes etc.

As the communists entire worlds view revolves around the idea of class struggle they amazingly see MAGA as a natural ally.

Sometimes reality is stranger than fiction.

Will look into it, but I don’t expect much sense to come out of it.

Just away to discredit the MAGA movement and make people, that are stupid, think what’s not true. They will try and do anything
as long as it destroys our nation.

Sounds more like more projection from the left to me.

I suggest the movement is fake. They are most likely communists, but they are not really for Trump at all. They are merely trying to make it seem as if communists back Trump tainting Trump with communist support, & therefore he must be a communist.

It's an old tactic being recirculate once again.

“a crucial point of Al-Din’s argument is that MAGA shouldn’t be viewed as a coherent ideology, but as a symbol of anti-elite struggle that remains open to the construction of a wide range of political identities.

In this sense, MAGA should be seen as something that began with Trump and is still associated with him—but that has the potential of taking on a life of its own, having become the host of every actual counter-hegemonic ideological tendency within the United States.”


“the advocates of #MAGACommunism hope to make communism appealing to ordinary working-class people by decoupling it from the toxic ideology of leftism. Whereas the latter has turned into a fanatical and anti-popular ideology that looks down upon the masses, and despises everything most people hold dear—nation, family, tradition—#MAGACommunists claim to be reclaiming a revolutionary legacy rooted in a deep patriotic respect for the national, familial, and cultural premises that define a people.

“Socialism with American characteristics,” as they call it, does not aim to change all private-property relations, let alone abolish all private property. On the contrary, it is one that aims to overthrow the monopolists, the bankers, Big Pharma, Big Agriculture, Big Tech and others, in order to allow people have more things, not less.”

The media is busy in its usual endeavors.

Lies get repeated intentionally with the idea of people believing it. Notice your reaction to the article. It works. It contains a partial truth or at least makes you think so

To counter lies, we must speak the truth more often that they lie.

Trump is fighting for the forgotten men and women of this country, not starting some “class struggle.”

What in God’s name could Donald Trump’s movement ever have in common with communism? Is this a sarcastic take on America’s surreal politics?


First record incident of the above: “Did God really say that??

Folks,

Get to know propaganda. They take a false premise and build on it. Have you stopped beating your wife.

They are trying to twist the narrative and label 180 from themselves. This is an action that admits their own guilt of communism.

Not actually that surprising: the traditional left focuses on the material conditions of the working class, i.e., labor's share of national income. The new left focus on race and gender.

The focus on race and gender and the imaginary goals of racial and gender "equity" promotes ever greater control by the managerial class and the administrative state: i.e., this focus supports the consolidation of all political power by the current political and corporate elites.

This ideology also fragments the working class by pushing blacks and other minorities against whites, rewards college indoctrinated whites with virtue signaling and the promise of a sinecure in the administrative state, and bribes minority elites with easy and unearned advancement as long as they are sock puppets parroting the equity agenda.

This focus rewards current US elites with ever greater administrative control and an ever greater share of national income and allows them to work together with foreign elites to loot the United States and every other country. The goal here is oligarchy in drag wearing blackface.

Hopefully all the communists in academia believe this nonsense and vote Trump back into office... they won’t like what they get (but I will).

The progressive base is infantile and are easily manipulated via infantile slogans, catch phrases and soundbites.

The globalists are used to guiding their base in that manner and are unable to formulate an effective strategy to manipulate the Conservative base; therefore, they’ll do what worked on their own and remain puzzled over why it wasn’t successful.

It’s the projectionism of the leftist ideas on to MAGA to get the public to think that Trump is going to be dictator and take away all of our freedoms.

Jackson Hinkle is a clout chaser and outrage baiter.

He's just out to make noise and draw attention to himself.

He is not serious and should not be taken seriously.

Sending out covid checks, not dealing with medicaid, social security, medicare, and the ever expanding government spending does not line up with freedom. That certainly is in the socialist/communist direction.

If actual Communists support Trump, it’s because they think chaos will result and hasten the Revolution. “The worse things are, the better they are” is an old Communist watchword.

There are some Marxists and ex-Marxists who do look to the right to smash the power structure. There’s the Living Marxism/Spiked-Online group in Britain and the Telos circle here, but neither group calls themselves Communists.
