Just something MAGA-people seem to have a hard time with sometimes. Probably not as much when Americans are speaking to themselves, but as a non-American, sometimes it’s challenging to get “those people” to admit that there is indeed anything wrong with the US. As in they won’t accept a single criticism, and will loudly proclaim “America is the greatest country in the world”, while wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat, which for me pretty explicitly means America isn’t great, if it has to be made to be such again.

    Well if you think about the wording of it, then yes.

    But fortunately for the far right, MAGA people aren’t burdened with such troubles.

    Instead they get to think about how great it would be without blacks or Hispanics or Jews or women’s rights or gays or trans people or any of the myriad of other things whose mere existence sends them into a purple faced rage on a daily basis. And if you fit into one of those categories, then you just think “well surely they don’t mean me, I’m one of the good ones” while ignoring the last century of evidence until it’s way too late.
