Resolution criteria
This market will resolve to the answer that best defines the term "MAGA" (Make America Great Again) as it is commonly understood in political discourse. The resolution will be based on authoritative sources such as the Merriam-Webster Dictionary (merriam-webster.com) and the Encyclopaedia Britannica (britannica.com).
Background
"MAGA" stands for "Make America Great Again," a political slogan popularized by Donald Trump during his 2016 presidential campaign. It has since evolved into a broader political movement emphasizing nationalism, economic protectionism, and a return to traditional values. The term is often associated with conservative policies and a focus on American exceptionalism.
Considerations
Participants should consider that "MAGA" encompasses a range of political beliefs and interpretations. The provided answers may not capture the full spectrum of its meaning, and the term's definition can vary among different groups and individuals.
Update 2025-06-03 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): In response to a question about how the market will resolve, the creator has stated their specific definition of socially conservative as 'being a Christian and biblical values.' They further asserted that this understanding is widely known. This definition may inform the creator's interpretation of answer choices that use the term 'socially conservative' in defining MAGA.
1,000So maybe this is an exercise in reading comprehension, but I feel like neither source you provide gives any strong argument for any of the options. Maaaybe one could argue that "anti-globalism => socially conservative" and maybe one could argue that the absence of much of anything indicates option 3, but all of this seems at least debatable.
So I do not understand how this is going to resolve.
@rayman2000 you literally have no clue what socially conservative means . You really are poorly educated. It means being a Christian and biblical values
@trevortaylor lol that's an aggressive response. Does "Maaaaybe one could argue" not make it clear that I also think it is a bit of a stretch?
More importantly, though, how is this market going to resolve? I do not understand the criteria.
Less importantly, I definitely disagree with that definition of socially conservative, which would mean that there can't be non-Christian social conservatives, which probably exist in the US and definitely outside of it. Wikipedia defines it as "places emphasis on traditional social structures", which overlaps with "Biblical values" if you happen to be Christian, I guess. "Traditional social structures" => "Immigration bad" is a bit of a stretch, but I could see someone making the argument.
@rayman2000 MAGA is rather confused there is the former democrats on one side and the Putin or hitler Isn’t that bad on the other side
@trevortaylor What is the point of this market?
If the sources don't describe MAGA as either "Fiscal conservative and socially liberal" or "Fiscal liberal and socially conservative" by June 10th will this market resolve as "Whatever Trump says"?
