I don't understand why that's a feature the site offers, nor why anyone takes them up on it. You're not making it any more private, since just anybody can sign up. All you're doing is gatekeeping your audience based on their affinity for the platform you use.
I don't really think so. I mean, sure, "MAGA" wasn't yet a way to refer to it, but "jingoistic testosterone fest" and MAGA are practically synonomous otherwise.
Trump to sign executive order rebranding Defense Department as the Department of War
The directive won't rename the Defense Department, which would require congressional approval, but it will make the Department of War its secondary title.

I hope all of the people who voted for him because he promised to be the "anti-war president" feel like the simps that they are.
Wouldn't count on it.
A man can dream.
Considering how little defense we do compared to how many wars of choice we do, he's really not wrong on this one.
I remember back in 2016 thinking the whole discourse about Trump being the ‘peaceful’ candidate of the two was utter bollocks. Because I recalled how exactly the same narrative was built around Bush during the 2000 election, and we all know how that ended up…
Some people never learn.
So who's he actually planning to go to war with? I haven't heard any bluster about Greenland in a while, and his relationship with Ukraine is more nuanced than I was expecting so I don't see him joining that war on Russia's side either, at least not any time soon.
It's not so much about going to war. I think it's twofold. 1: Trump has been told that incumbents get a boost when we are at war and I really do think he has this idea he's getting another term. And 2: Hesgeth really wants to be the Sec. of War, not Defense. That's a title that garners a reaction not even a little blue pill can replicate.
Marco Rubio really really wants to intervene in Venezuela for some reason, and he's running half the executive branch so they kinda have to keep him happy.
The american ambassador was just called to the government in denmark to explain the covert operations they were performing to undermine denmarks rule. And while it has been a few weeks, trump still trots out "canada as the 51st" because he thinks it'll intimidate us.
So basically anyone in the world except russia at this point.
He doesn't have to go to war with anyone to get intimidation points. Of course, at this point, people are more afraid of his idiocy than his actual threats.
It's brinkmanship: Trump is deliberately* provoking everyone, it's just a question of who will respond first (I'm hoping it's Death).
(* As much as a creature like him is capable of deliberation.)

Except trump is so ******* dumb he doesn't realize the world has ALREADY responded: and we opted to simply cut the US out of our economies.
