This was from a person who had MAGA in their name. And so I asked them "Living in the past? Your name has MAGA in it, there is something 'great' about the past you want the present to emulate 'again', so what, pray tell, is it?"

They never replied to me.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.

Tell me more...
