    Basically the MAGAcommunist psyop goes like this:

    "People who work at places that stereotypical liberals shop at aren't proles."

    Yes, it's that stupid. They aren't communists. They're feds using political terminology incorrectly to confuse people.

    Leftists are leaving the Dems, communism is becoming more popular than it has in years. So what we have seen is a lot of efforts to scare people away from leftism, like calling anyone left of Bernie a tankie and trying to associate that with totalitarianism and now with MAGAcommunism, trying to scare liberals away from leftism by assoiating it with Trump bigots.

    It exists to confuse and disrupt.

    Little Mexican dudes selling paletas in a little cart they roll around while ringing a bell are the only true proletariat.
