Some actual MS-13 tattoos, in contrast to Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s knuckle tattoos

Maga are the same people who had "Let's Go Brandon" and "FJB" instead of just saying what they mean. They use "CRT" and "DEI" as the new N-word, instead of saying what they mean. They are cowards who are too scared to actually say what they mean and need plausible deniablility to get out of what they say in case they get too scared, or people confront them, over saying it.

That's why they know their base will believe these tattoos means MS-13. Because they need to speak in code to hide their bad side out of cowardice, they think everyone else does too.

I’m amazed Reddit allowed you to spell out what DEI and CRT actually means to the cult, I’ve said something similar word for word basically and got a temporary suspension. People get offended when they get called out for how they are. It’s the equivalent of a KKK member in full dress standing there saying “the audacity” for being called out as a racist.

Yup, I’ve been permanently banned from politics because of calling trump supporters cultists. I made another account and still go on their to post. Reddit has slowly but surely started becoming as strict as TikTok. Unfortunately if Nazis, racists, fascists, basically the worst humans alive, can’t be called out or ridiculed for it then we are allowing them to continue their crap. There should be no tolerance for it and people calling a Nazi a piece of shit shouldn’t be reprimanded for it, they should be applauded. And the same goes for calling out any of the above. As far as I’m concerned, they have no rights to not being insulted or looked down on. They gave those up when they decided to hold the beliefs they do.

I am assuming CRT doesn't mean Cathode Ray Tube to them? As a European I am a bit out of the loop.

Critical race theory. It's kind of a school of thought on interpreting laws & how they've been applied with a lens of being cognizant of historic racial bias. It main usage is in university/graduate course work. For a few years it was the boggieman among conservatives saying that the teachers/schools/liberals were using it to brain wash white kids into hating themselves/America. As the in vogue term in those circles it was actually used in place of any of their cultural grievances with a focus on minorties.

It means critical race theory. It’s a pseudo intellectual, fictional, narrative based paradigm that somehow allows them to believe that Racism is not real, and that anyone who thinks racism exists is an enemy.

they also have to use "88" to mean Heil Hitler

It also feeds into their conspiracy theorist minds, where everything that's 'true' is hidden by those in power and only THEY can decipher it because they're just so much smarter than everyone else. The information on the surface is all lies and deception to fool the ignorant masses, but THEY can look past it to see the patterns that show the way to the 'truth'.

So naturally the symbols on his knuckles have to mean something more, because it can't just be someone who got edgy tattoos, that's too easy, too... surface level.

I work in San clemente. Very prominent town. They will not fucking hesitate to hard r you in public, to your face. Whether or not a justified reaction to that happens is dependent on if the suns up or down.
