Cant wait for Trump to call Biden a Tankie on live TV.
"No, no, I uh, I uh, uhhh, look fat, you're YOU are the Russian"
Here’s the deal, Jack: you call me a tankie, but listen—back in ’68, Prague, Hungary, all those places… tanks everywhere. Ten, twenty tanks in one city. You better believe it. I stood up against communism, and Mao! We stood up against it too, folks - many times, we beat the drum against…We had a victory over communism, just like my administration had a victory over…over, Social Security. My dad used to say… wait… Oh, right, victory. I cede my time.
He would really enunciate the "E" at the end.
tankeeeeeee
These Tankeees, folks. They are bad people. They want to cause infinite 9/11s on the West—can you believe that? But we won’t let Biden and his Tankeees cause infinite 9/11s on our beautiful country. Tankeee, that's what they call them
The only way to kill it for good.
A key part of Blue MAGA, one which this article doesn't highlight, which Newsweek is probably incapable of highlighting, is the belief that the United States can turn back the clock and return to a nostalgic, mythical golden age. This is the common foundation which MAGA and Blue MAGA are founded upon. A political outlook resembling the belief that a pile of ashes can be turned back into a tree.
Also historically a key point of many fascist groups.
The "Blue MAGA" accusations have been aimed at those who have suggested they will still vote for Biden despite accusations he is too old or lacking cognitive ability to remain in office for a second term.
There's also no word of genocide or all the other shit
"We are like two days away from Blue MAGA arguing cognitive decline is a made up ailment invented by the New York Times."
That was like two days ago when blue MAGA called NYT "Russian disinformation" for suggesting he might have parkinson
Very well put!
It's so funny that radical centrism is a thing.
It's all the suburbanites who've benefited from inflation, owners of inflating assets like homes and rental properties which in this monstrous aberration of a country literally represents tens of millions of people
Then you add their trust-fund maladjusted brats into the picture and suddenly this army of psycho centrists make sense
I don't know how they can't see their positions sliding to the right
They don't care because it's the blues doing it. Hell they don't care if they go full right (see praising immigration and genocide) as long as it's a blue
lets look inside
dammit, its fascism again
"I'm BlueMAGA and proud of it, if that means standing up for democracy, stopping Trump, Project 2025, Agenda 47, MAGA and staying in the fight with the most legislatively successful president in modern American history: Mr. Joe Biden," the PAC posted.
Beyond parody. Sounds exactly like a MAGA chud but for
Most legislatively successful president in modern history?
Sam Seder also said recently that Biden is the best Dem president in living memory (low bar).
Where are these things coming from? Like, unironically, I want to know what they're referring to

They are liberals and can only remember as far back as what they had for breakfast.
Taking this in good faith, it's possible Biden's genocide(s?) and other policies have led to fewer deaths than those of Obama and Clinton.
Biden: Palestine, Yemen, I assume some others I'm forgetting about, COVID domestically
Obama: Yemen, continued the US occupation of the middle east (but Biden was VP for those so feel like he probably has to get some credit)
Clinton: Bombing of Yugoslavia, Iraq (al-Shifa pharmaceutical factory), the crime bill domestically (but written by Biden soooo)
Even so, this is like comparing which Axis leader was the "best" during WWII. It doesn't matter and all of them deserve the wall.
Can’t forget Ukraine deaths from forcing the war to be prolonged. That’s a lot of death.
Because it finally broke thru in the comments on politics threads about how much Biden bricked
I was lurking over there just for the laughs. This almost makes up for libs learning the word "tankies"
Now the liberals will learn "patsoc" or "magacom" in the next episode "The Neoliberal Empire Strikes Back!"
patsoc
I want to change it to Pazi
Monkey paw curls, pazi catches on but it's the anarchists calling the tankies that because "tankie" no longer makes communists mad
Bricked Up Brandon, I call him
Posting really is praxis!
Hahahahaha and they tried so hard for tankie to get adopted over the years
Sucks to suck

At least currently the hogs don't seem to be squealing over it, just mass-downvoting.
The people calling others BlueMaga seem to be gaining traction too
I have to admit that I like BlueAnon much more.
They're two different things in my opinion. BlueMaga are the process nerds and horse race freaks.
BlueAnon are the ones saying that CNN tampered with Brandon's mic to make him seem old
I like blue fash too
Did blue maga originate on here/the old sub?
Not sure. It's is possible, since we have been just about the only people that felt that way about democrats for the longest time. Also, we have
Been around since at least(?) 2019 I think.
I want to say it started when liberals were sweeping Biden's sexual assault under the rug and tut-tutting people for mentioning the many horrid pieces of legislation he has been responsible for.
: p
The way they killed #metoo almost literally over night
The oldest reference to it should be discoverable via search, there's text archives of both forums for better or worse.

Blue MAGA, plus Russiagate is BlueAnon
Someone searched for blue maga in 2007 via Google trends but that's not very helpful. The first occurrence I found online was on May 9th of 2020 in a tweet: https://x.com/zei_squirrel/status/1258930482554769408?lang=en
The second ever recorded instance of blue maga on Google (via https://www.oldestsearch.com/) was by none other than Bes D. Marx in August of 2020 https://x.com/BesDMarx/status/1299408351755988994
