How MAGA Is Taking Back the Culture
WSJ via MSN ^ | Jan. 18, 2024 | Aaron Zitner, Meridith McGraw

Posted on 01/19/2025 6:15:36 AM PST by libstripper

Across many facets of society—in sports, entertainment, the classroom and the workplace—there are signs that MAGA isn’t just retaking the White House. It is gaining a firmer foothold in the broader culture.

Instead of taking a knee to call for social justice, NFL players are doing the “Trump dance” in the end zone at football games. Mainstream entertainers, among them the country singer Carrie Underwood and the rapper Snoop Dogg, agreed to perform at events celebrating Donald Trump’s inauguration, something music stars largely shunned eight years ago.

The change is astounding compared to 4 years ago. It's as though the Biden Regime created a complete revulsion with socialist policies and many people are acting as if they were French at the time of the 1944 liberation.

This phenomenon probably has more to do with the people in the movement, than with Trump.

It will be interesting to see the MSM twisting themselves into pretzels to try and convince us otherwise.

Unless the RINOs control the party, this could be damage that the current RAT Party will not be able to recover from.

Popular culture evolves all the time.

The first few years after 9/11 almost everyone seemed to have a yellow ribbon magnet on their car. A few years later this was out of fashion.

BLM protests gave a big boost to DEI culture, but now that is finally waning.

If you want throw up a little bit in your mouth, read the Vanity Fair article entitled “Who Is Christopher Maccio”. It did it by accident when looking for information on America’s Tenor. There is not even an attempt to play nice.

Trump is the catalyst and also the driving force for the movement to gain momentum

The one thing I’ve noticed from most conservative venues is that they are no longer reticent to complain about the true nature of things like transism. That actual transers are such a small, near irrelevant portion of the overall population who can rightly now be called mentally deficients.

The biggest mistake the left has ever made, and simply didn’t run into in history, is a population that just wants to be LEFT ALONE, and we will return the favor.

The saddest thing about this is that Snoop Dogg is considered mainstream.

great point! “conservatives seek agreement while liberals demand compliance” L.Star. when forced to comply people will naturally rebel. when allowed to find agreement people tend to seek a place of agreement.

Trying to make a point? If so it is unclear

“betting the liberal activist democrats are SO sorry for cheating to win that 2020 election. four years of them SHOWING US who they really are is exactly why the country is headed back to somewhere in the middle.”

They came very close to winning everything for a very long time.

If it weren’t for Senators Kirsten Sinema and Joe Manchin siding with 50 Republicans, they would have ended the filibuster and gone whole hog to pack the Supreme Court, admit two more reliably Democrat states to the Union, completely require mail in ballots without signature requirements for the whole nation, and given immediate citizenship and voting rights to millions of previously illegal immigrants.

It was that close.

I notice the change all the time, the biggest daily one is that nearly everyone has given up on “African American” and gone back to black.

And thank God! African American was the stupidest crap, since it didn’t address blacks from elsewhere. I refused to give up black, and apparently, everyone else did to.
