Just in time for Halloween, we have the denouement of a somewhat bizarre story that I have followed for a while in fractured fashion, through tweets from a sometimes private, to reduce the chance of giving herself away, Twitter account. It's the story of a woman who, unable to make a living because of the pandemic, decided to live for a year in the very heart of MAGAland. Just about a month short of her goal, and concerned about being doxxed, she revealed herself to the internet:
Hey everyone. My name is Amanda, and I have been undercover as a MAGA since the 2020 November Stop the Steal Rally in Washington, DC. pic.twitter.com/Glg1qiL4oI

It's a fascinating, darkly humorous tale of an intrepid investigator who put her health and well-being at risk hanging out, recording scumbags. I'm hoping for a book and/or a documentary covering her expedition into the sewers of American culture, and will be among the first in line to purchase it. Check out her Twitter feed, it's a fascinating mix of revelations about MAGA and QAnon (are they even separate anymore) whackaloons and hilarious cries from butthurt trolls who are attacking her.
I sure hope she has decent security where she lives, because she must be protected at all costs.
Thanks. I don't know if i have the stomach for it. I always pay attention to your reccomendations.
ReplyDeleteI will try.
I just don't know how much longer i can continue being in my culture. Everytime i turn around, there are these weird republican people and hostile christians.
Richard, this is why we live in or around NYC or similar places in the US or other countries. Small town fan? Find one with a university.
ReplyDeleteI can't leave my community. That is hard to explain. I am one of the village idiots. We share that job with a few others.
ReplyDeleteNobody asks for it, you have to earn it.
I can't just move to NYC. What about my village? We are known statewide as radical socialist democrats! People come from all over the world to see what is for dinner.
Her account has been suspended - any idea why?
