I'm surprised that MAGA and trumpism isn't just a kink play scene. The images are all an over the top fertile homoerotic muscleman. They are always talking about cuckolding and there's always some strange power dynamics at play. Throw in racist and sexist undertones and you got everything. You couldn't make it more of a kink power play / humiliation / cuckolding scene if you tried.
The fact it's a legitimate political movement is what is odd about it.
I don't usually kink shame, but I'm going to start.
They will like that.
The obsession with calling everyone "cucks" comes from the white supremacist scene that created the "alt-right". It's intended to mean "race traitor" more than it's intended go kink shame.
Well I agree with you that "cucks" comes from the alt right I'm sure it still comes from cuckolding porn / kink. Unless you are studying Shakespeare you will only see the word related to the kink. While it once meant any man who was cheated it's now only used by the kink. If it means race traitor it must have to do with the fact that the Bull is typically a large black man in the porn.
There's some pretty good scientific evidence that fear and arousal are linked especially in a sex negative and shame based cultures. So the connection isn't that strange
That is exactly the reason.
