Rich Grennell and a few other prominent MAGA people are crusading against critics objecting to the GOP embracing transgenderism as normal and healthy, framing opposition as bigoted. It's therefore evident that on some social issues Trump's GOP is further left than before 1/

This is hilarious because liberals view Trump’s GOP as ultra socially conservative, which is simply not true. Meanwhile, for all MAGA's talk of the culture war, they're adopting socially left positions and reframing them as moderate (fiscally responsible!) alternatives 2/

Trump's GOP, prominent MAGA figures are engaging in cancel culture to intimidate detractors into shutting up--you either embrace Trump-brand LGBTQ ideology or you're bigoted and get left behind. Okay, so perhaps add an asterisk to "America Uncanceled" as MAGA's new war cry 3/

There is no civil debate--Trump people are basically saying if you disagree with me on this it's probably because you're bad. It is remarkable how MAGA is at once portrayed as Hitlerian and yet actual MAGA people will attack others for not adopting socially left views 4/

The civil opposed position is not that one hates those who identify as transgender but believing it shouldn't be glorified because it's connected to mental illness, on the one hand, and dangerous libertinism on the other (Desmond is Amazing). But even this is apparently bad 5/
