(197,201 posts)Is MAGA a cult? Not in the strict clinical sense. But as a political subculture, it exhibits many cult-like dynamics: emotional dependency on a singular figure, rejection of external facts, and ritualized loyalty.

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.
