I didn't know it had racial overtones. Here in the UK it's usually said with a sarcastic laugh when we want to mock Trump and hit him with a slogan we remember from the US presidential campaign. The inference being he's really not 'great' and he's devalued the USA by being its president.
Good to know, I will avoid in future.
- ModernMech 8y agoWe use it that way as well. As in: "Added $1T to the deficit and still no universal healthcare! #MAGA" But minorities in this country have to put up with being told to leave now on a regular basis. Hate crimes are on the rise. You're now labeled a racist for standing up to racism. Racists are emboldened and cite the President as the reason for their newfound brazenness. People who simply support the President want to pretend that it's just a slogan, but they're in company with very unsavory people (the KKK aren't Democrats) who use that slogan as a weapon every day. Every. Day. And so to expect to be free from that onslaught in a paper about Prolog I don't think is much to ask. But clearly this is still Trump's world.
