MAGA is the creed of mostly white men because when anyone yells that they want to, “Make America great again,” what they’re usually yelling is that they want to make themselves great again.
This is why mostly white men can also be heard chanting, “Make Britain great again!” or, “Make Australia great again!” It all means the same thing: Make Me Great Again!
American (and British, and Australian) men are going to foreign countries to find wives because they want to turn back time and live in a century where White Anglo-Saxon Protestants (WASPs) are great husbands just for being white and male. In essence, they don’t want to live in the 21st century.
For all its faults America is at least the 21st century for a lot of its peoples; women, people of colour, anyone’s who LGBTQ+. Unlike with Thailand, the Philippines, and many other foreign countries. And for men who don’t want to live in the 21st century these countries that haven’t quite reached it are the answer to all of their problems.
To put things simply, American men are going to foreign countries to find wives because the countries they’re going to haven’t truly advanced to a century where a woman doesn’t need to marry a man to feed herself. They’re going to foreign countries to find wives because they miss the subservience that comes with a woman needing to marry them to eat. Because they miss when America was great.
American men are going to foreign countries to find wives because there they are great again.
