Strange MAGAts

Tells us the strange stories of the cult members you know personally.

Here's mine:

I had a nice neighbor, a doctor. She was very pleasant, and we became acquaintances. She increasingly became MAGA during Trump's first term. Her social media become so strange--parroting whatever the party would say--Critical Race Theory was ruining schools; Drag queens were pedophiles; Illegals were voting and that's why Dems wanted them in; vaccines were the cause of autist. I stopped talking to her about the time she moved away. Her oldest son subsequently committed suicide. Someone on her social media sent his condolences. Her comment back was "My son spent his life trying to save America!" WTF?!

One strange person I knew had the exact same problem as a few dumbbells and they had to go back to their home in Georgia

A long time friend of my sister's went full blown MAGA when Hillary Clinton ran for president, she sent my sister an email describing how Hillary & Oprah Winfrey have a series of tunnels under their homes where they keep kidnapped children.

My sister finally had to cut ties with her friend, the crazy was too much.

Knew a family that showed their true racist colors when Obama became president. Everything was "He's only doing things to help minorities!!"

They ultimately decided to move to Texas from California because California was full of "liberals who just take our money!!'

Lo and behold, two years later, they were right back in California. They didn't understand that Texas was full of Texans and their guns, which apparently freaked them out.

Vaccines, you are not the cause of me!

And before vaccines it was 5-G transmission causing COVID-19. I tried to explain to these nutters that Iran experienced one of the worst outbreaks of the virus, despite not having 5-G. But like all good cult members they would just glaze over when presented with actual facts.

I lost one of my sisters to QAnon/Trump lunacy; hasn’t spoken to me in years.

Going into 2025 I’ve realized how exhausted I am with the MAGA nonsense. I’m sick to death of talking about their crap and I’m not giving them another minute of my time.

I guess I’ll be skipping the rest of this thread, and many many others.

Lived in a very Red State during Covid. During the pandemic when medical experts were advocating public health precautions, most of the folks there were 100% against them. I didn’t care what people there decided, I believed in these safeguards and used them- especially masks You would not believe how many abominable MAGATS in stores (Particular grocery stores) would intentionally crash their carts into ours. Without so much as an apology. Individuals would confront us in parking lots and start arguments with us. My partner who was the Epidemiologist in the County in charge of the response fielded a bevy of threatening phone calls and emails to him. One nut in particular sent him a letter accusing him of being in league with the Chinese and strangely enough, though the writer claimed Covid was a hoax created by our government,he then accused my partner of “Spreading the virus” that the Chinese had sent over. He made ridiculous threats of visiting my partner in his office and making him sorry. Turned out when the police investigated the guy was 92 and in a wheelchair and homebound. Make it make sense.

Back in 2018, I was talking to a coworker about one of her friends.

She had spoken to her friend at lunch and the friend was starting to become afraid of her husband because he’d turned into some Q prepper nut.

My coworker started asking me about the storm shit and the power grid getting shut off - plus the Q nut stuff- she wanted to know if I knew what her friend’s husband was going on about because she had no idea.

I told her as much as I had heard from the various loons. She ended up telling her friend to get a divorce and RUN from that guy.

During the Great Trans Panic of 2024, my mother (who knows I'm gay) said that all gay men want to "cut off their dicks." I replied that I very much like my dick, and I very much like other guy's dicks, and that was true of most gay men.

My paternal aunt’s husband ranted to my parents and I that too many foreigners in the hospital system, that he was in emergency and did not see one other Caucasian with a name he could pronounce for hours.

My mother is black and an Intensive Care physician.
