Is MAGA actually some kind of death cult?

It seems to me that as politics moves to the right, that death cultism becomes more popular - it's all about punishing the out-groups which the in-groups can celebrate, despite all the human misery that it causes.

The in-group is the one put at the most risk in this case. Death cult sounds about right.

Over 1 million babies killed by abortion every year. Thousands of sexual mutilations on teens every year in "sex reassignment" surgeries. But the MAGAs are the death cult. Sure.

They're not "babies" until they're born, so that would be exactly zero babies killed by abortion.

As far as "sexual mutilation" goes, I'm more concerned about circumcision as the participants have no say in the matter whereas gender reassignment is something that the participant desires.
