Blue MAGA

Noun.
Coined in 2016, as voters recognized that Bernie Bros were acting exactly like their GOP counterparts. Which made more sense the more we learned that Putin supported both Trump and Sanders in several ways.
"I thought we were ALL anti-fascists, but it turns out that guy in the Birdie Sanders merch is just Blue MAGA."

MAGAdjacent

Adjective
Many politicians and supporters identify as Never Trump, but on a social progress scale, 100 being truly, meaningfully for progress, and -100 representing the regressiveness of Trump, many of these people are at -99. This is true of Republicans like Romney, Kinzinger, and Cheney, who still vote over 90% with Trump's radically conservative positions, and is also true in Horseshoe Theory, among people who CLAIM to care about things like climate change, reparations, voting rights, gun reform, et al, but say they will sit out the election, or, worse, actively carry water for the GOP, if the 48 Democrat Senators don't magically act like a 68-seat Supermajority.

MAGAdjacent can also be used as a noun to describe people whose political outcomes match the definition above.
"I actually heard a so-called Progressive™ say she would support Liz Cheney for PRESIDENT!!!"
"OMG! Even after Liz made a spectacle of herself after Roe V Wade was struck down?"
"I know! I knew Bros had some MAGAdjacent tendencies, but I had no idea this Bro was officially a MAGAdjacent!"

KHive

Used correctly, KHive is a term used for high-information voters who have seen the value of the work being done my Vice President Kamala Harris. She has a long record of stepping into offices traditionally held by conservative white males, and applying socially-progressive theories, to prevent crime, and to prosecute criminals that conservatives tend to ignore, from rapists to big banks. As California Attorney General, she risked her job to affirm that Prop H8 is indefensible, paving the way for the Supreme Court to reaffirm that marriage is a fundamental right that cannot be denied to LGBTQ+ people. As a Senator, she was famous for making the patriarchal establishment nervous.

However, many people who do not recognize that they are PART of the patriarchal establishment hate the candidate who, despite being forced out of the Primary by the rich patriarchy, has become the Vice President. They misuse "KHive" as a slur, the way that their MAGA counterparts would call such supporters "Antifa." It has become dog whistle for "uppity black woman," even though millions of Vice President Harris' supporters are neither black nor women. Facts do not matter to them. If they make toxic, pro-Putin comments, they believe "only KHive could possibly take offense to this toxicity!"
Tea Party: "Democrats are scrambling to find a replacement for President Biden in 2024."
Constitution: If for some reason President Biden needs to be replaced, he will be succeeded by the Vice President.
Tea Roses: "OMFG, you must be KHive."

Ichabod

In reference to the Headless Horseman, an "Ichabod" is a man in an online personal ad who will show you every private part he's got, but not his face, resulting in an endless array of headless profile shots.
Wow, did you check out that profile!

Yeah, but he's probably got a face like a mud fence... Geez, put up a face pic! It's the 21st Century, Ichabod!

Blue MAGA

Noun.
Term for people who behave exactly like Trump supporters but who are instead aligned with Bernie Sanders and other Putinists. In 2016, Blue MAGA was used by Democrats to describe Berniecrats who frequently express their hatred of anti-fascist Democrats. Of course, Berniecrats have adopted Orwell's Newspeak to try to distance themselves from their own fascism -- even though Newspeak is inherently fascist.
I criticized yet another one of Bernie's votes where he sided with the Republicans, and Berniecrats have been flooding my DMs with death threats ever since. Thanks a lot Blue MAGA.

Green MAGA

An astroturf "movement" purportedly working for the bumper sticker "Green New Deal" but voting against things like clean water. Like original MAGA, they are not real Democrats, but paid by conservatives, often from outside the US, to divide the actual Water Protectors and other devoted environmentalists, instead teaming with FreeDumb Caucus members like MTG to protect Russian oil oligarchs.

Bernie Blue MAGA do not like being called Blue MAGA -- probably because Blue is for Democrats, and one of their other aliases confirmed that the former "Blue MAGA" are actually a hostile takeover of the Democratic Party voting union, so to help everyone understand that they are not Democrats, they can be called Green MAGA instead.
"What do you mean, there's a definition accusing Green MAGA of being trolls and bot farmed? Let's send 18,000 accounts to swarm this definition and give it a Thumbs Down to prove how authentic we are!"

Blue MAGA

A term describing the fascist tactics of Bernie Bros, "Blue MAGA" has, predictably, become the latest victim of #Newspeak, and is now used by Putinists as a derogatory term for Democrats who resist Putinists.

Berniecrats described as "Blue MAGA" are often upper-middle class, live in the suburbs, and treat politics as a team sport. They frequently support or excuse Russian war, tax cuts for hedge fund millionaires, clemency for rapists and murderers in the guise of "abolishing prisons," and cuts to the social safety net by Republicans if Democrats are not "pure" enough.

Blue MAGA Berniecrats' main objection to Trump had much less to do with his policies than it had to do with his decorum. This explains their courting of so-called Moderate Republicans, who take a hatchet to the middle class and start unnecessary wars, but often do it with a smile on their face and outward politeness.

Perhaps the politician that Blue MAGA Berniecrats despise the most is Vice President Kamala Harris, attacking her with misogynoir, even when their attacks are based on Fox reporters making up lies. Blue MAGA Berniecrats drool over Bernie Sanders, because they see him as responsible for Donald Trump’s election theft in 2016, ignoring the facts of Russian interference, which, like Trump, they call the "Russia Hoax" because Putin also actively supported Bernie Sanders. They also swoon to proposals such as Hillarycare, which Bernie tanked in the 1990s and then rebranded as "Medicare for All."
Antifa: I'm so happy that Biden is president now! I can't wait to start fixing what was broken, and then make progress that benefits EVERYONE, regardless of race, sex, gender, sexuality, income, et al.

Blue MAGA: But what about the student loans of rich kids who earn $100,000 per year or more???

Antifa: Shouldn't the priority be to CONTINUE cancelling debt for people who REALLY need it, and then using the trillion dollars you want to give to the rich to make sure EVERY child in the US gets a quality PreK-12 education?

Blue MAGA: You mean, like Black kids? Naw, why bother -- #PLCAA will mean those kids will probably get shot up anyway.

Antifa: STFU Bernie Bro!! Go back to Russia!

Blue MAGA: That's Blue MAGA for you... Oh well, let's go back to attacking every Black person on Twitter as "KHive," and then when Black people complain, say we're talking about white women who eat brunch.
