  • Summary

  • What exactly is MAGA? In this episode, we dive deep into the movement, not just as a political force, but as a new kind of civil religion. We'll explore the history of self-creation, from Martin Luther to the age of Trump, and how this uniquely American idea shapes the MAGA movement. We'll also unpack the complex relationship between online communities and real connection, the allure of nostalgia, and the very nature of truth in a post-truth era. Join us for a fascinating conversation on the spiritual and cultural forces driving one of the most significant movements in recent history.
