One of the smartest things a scammer can do is find victims who are both unsympathetic and stupid. MAGA hats are a beacon for them.
Wearing a MAGA hat is basically a sign that says "I fell for it once, I'm falling for it again, and I will fall for it in the future!"
Memestock cult "apes" are another school of fish in another barrel. There's been a lot of overlap between memestock cults, QAnon, and MAGA recently that has been interesting. They are really degenerate people.
