Okay, now that people are less inclined to think I'm a nutter: what is it do people think Dark MAGA is? It's a reference to "Dark Enlightenment". Dark Enlightenment is tied to the neoreactionary movement (NRX). It's right here, on Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_En...

Little Ba'la-bia, her twin toddler brothers and baby sister, victims of famine, were sold by their desperate parents to a rich man in ancient Emar. These are the footprints of two of them, pressed into clay and sealed like contracts, when the children were taken away from home c. 2200 years ago.
