Not every opinion you disagree with can just be dismissed as bots. The idea of blue MAGA is a perfectly legit criticism of the same dumbasses who months ago were screaming "VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO! BIDEN IS PERFECTLY MENTALLY COMPETENT AND THE GREATEST CANDIDATE TO EVER RUN, AND IF YOU SAY OTHERWISE, YOU'RE A CRYPTO-REPUBLICAN WHO REALLY WANTS TRUMP TO WIN!" whenever anyone expressed even the mildest criticism of the Democratic platform or reservations about Biden's ability to win the election.

Lemmy, particularly lemmy.world, is full of blue MAGA nonces who read a post saying, "I'll hold my nose and vote for Harris, but I really wish she would change her stance on X" and reply, "Now isn't the time for this divisive rhetoric, I can tell you're a Russian shill who wants Trump to win."
