MAGA Communism is a meme that Infrared used to demonstrate its position relative to the political spectrum. The concept is initially confusing due to the seeming contradiction between right-wing MAGA and left-wing Communism. The confusion is intentional, as Infrared maintains that real political difference exists outside of the traditional political spectrum, in the realm of the partisan.[1][2]
Infrared community members caused #MAGACommunism to trend on Twitter. This caused a great coping of leftists who claimed that anyone who mentioned communism to a MAGA supporter would be considered a "freak" and ridiculed. [3] [4] Haz Al-Din of Infrared disproved this theory by speaking at a MAGA rally to a mostly positive reception. [5] This form of meme warfare is an example of a hyperstition.
According to Haz, "MAGA is an incipient form of American socialism."[2][6]
On March 1st, 2023, Ben Burgis and Haz debated MAGA Communism.[7]
