When Was America “Great”? Exposing the Myth Behind MAGA Nostalgia

A caller questions when America was “great,” sparking a deep dive into racist nostalgia, elite power, and the myths behind MAGA’s longing for the past.

Texas Rep James Talarico on Colbert's Late Show:

"There is nothing Christian about Christian nationalism. It is the worship of power in the name of Christ."

"They want us talking about furries and bathrooms so we don't realise they're picking our pockets. They're closing our schools, gutting our healthcare, and raising taxes for all of us while they cut taxes for their billionaire donors. The culture wars are a smokescreen. Because the real fight isn't left vs right; its top vs bottom. "

James Talerico, age 36, is a member of the Texas House of Representatives (since 2018), Presbyterian seminarian, and former public school teacher.

His political positions include:
- against Christian nationalism
- Congressional term limits
- universal healthcare
- weapons ban to Israel
- Supreme court reform

The hardest part is knowing you have comrades in spirit, yet still feeling like there’s no collective that’s truly yours. Family in principle, but not in presence. At least I can reach out to the NSF from abroad, pay dues, and join their ranks. I'd rather funnel my money into a union that stands for workers like me.

What I’m trying to say is that I have comrades abroad, but no one locally. I do have my own family and friends, yes, but they are not politically literate. In other words, I’m politically isolated in my own backyard, adrift among family and friends who fill the space around me, but leave my revolutionary spirit starving.

So, it turns out it boils down to something like this (lol): mentally unstable? Sure. Politically literate? Absolutely.
