Today, Jay!, Amanda, Deon, and Erin discuss:

⁃ The calculated, propaganda motives behind “Mar-a-Lago face”

and bizarre MAGA hyper-femininity

⁃ How MAGA uses Kristi Noem’s “Border Barbie” vibes to attempt to

soften its vicious immigration policy, and project victimization

⁃ How bad AI imagery is now the look of modern fascism

⁃ The cruelty of the White House X account - a propaganda

machine of memes (run by Groypers)

⁃ The Right’s psychopathic treatment of immigrants, and bracing

ourselves for what’s coming next

⁃ …and more in BACKSTAGE: Beyond the Algorithm (MEMBERS

ONLY!)
