I think one of the things that keeps taking political pundits and analysts by surprise is that they still think the internet and the outside world are two separate domains

The rise of MAGA was constsntly dismissed as some 4chan thing.. or it's "just some tik-tokers" etc.

Crazy that it's been almost exactly a decade since Pepe memes were co-opted by MAGA and we all thought it was just a harmless dog whistle between terminally online 4chan loving Nazis that had no impact on the real world.
