      Been around since at least(?) 2019 I think.

      I want to say it started when liberals were sweeping Biden’s sexual assault under the rug and tut-tutting people for mentioning the many horrid pieces of legislation he has been responsible for.

      The oldest reference to it should be discoverable via search, there’s text archives of both forums for better or worse.

          Someone searched for blue maga in 2007 via Google trends but that’s not very helpful. The first occurrence I found online was on May 9th of 2020 in a tweet: https://x.com/zei_squirrel/status/1258930482554769408?lang=en

          The second ever recorded instance of blue maga on Google (via https://www.oldestsearch.com/) was by none other than Bes D. Marx in August of 2020 https://x.com/BesDMarx/status/1299408351755988994

              Were you on the old sub? I swear I remember it being used in primary season, probably in or before March?

          I have facebook posts using it April 2020, proving I did in fact invent the term, heh (nobody doxx me)

          My first use of the term was specifically in regards to the SA allegations by Tara Reade and how the Biden Bros ™ were acting just like their redMAGA counterparts in case anyone wants to know their history

      I started saying it while insulting liberals and never read it anywhere before I started saying it so I’m pretty sure I invented it, you’re all welcome
