    I’m not using a Marxist definition, I’m applying Wikipedia’s definition independently. Taking Wikipedia at their word for liberalism, MAGA fits.

      I think you and Wikipedia disagree here. But that’s neither here nor there really. By their counting, there’s plenty of non-liberals who would fit the meme. In your view there aren’t. So that explains the difference.

        I don’t really see what you mean, but either way, I don’t think this conversation is going to be particularly productive. I generally agree with how Wikipedia described liberalism in that intro paragraph, MAGA fits a lot of it as well.

          I meant the original topic of this discussion about non-liberal movements. Why you and Wikipedia consider MAGA (Trumpism) differently is, yeah that’s a discussion for some other day. The original topic is cleared up
