"the rotting carcass of the MAGA era, its shrieking insecurities, its pathetic resentments, its festering hatreds, and that distinct, metallic tang of panic rising in the back of its throat behind the soft wattle."
"Fascism wants to scare you into silence," he wrote, "but sometimes, fascism trips on its own lies and absurdities and pratfalls onto its sneering face."
"the culture war hill on which MAGA wished to die."
"Football is ours!"
The MAGA movement displays pronounced insecurities, resentments, festering hatreds, and a rising metallic panic. The Super Bowl halftime performance by Bad Bunny became a focal point of cultural conflict and a symbolic defeat for MAGA cultural claims. Right-wing critics labeled the choice un-American despite Puerto Rico's status as a U.S. territory and Puerto Ricans as U.S. citizens. Post-show reactions escalated into bizarre accusations and territorial declarations about football, including claims of explicit content that lacked clear evidence. The episode illustrates intensified culture-war dynamics and visible signs of disarray within MAGA-aligned ranks.
