The American Communist Party is an example of "MAGA Comminism." What's important in distinguishing MAGA Communism from normal communism is MAGA Communists supporting nationalism in the global north, not just the global south against imperialism like most communists do. This entrenches imperialism and bourgeois rule.

Yeah, luckily the ACP is mostly a joke. If you ever see them getting platforms, though

Exactly - there's nothing inherently wrong with a group of people within a country, or even an ethnic group, banding together in order to advance their common interests as a People.

Where do things go wrong? When you ask: "What are the interests of that Nation? And what do you plan to do to advance them?"

An American Nationalist must realize that it is in the best interests of the nation to maintain Imperialism and exploitation overseas, and depending on how they define their nation, exploitation of immigrants and ethnic minorities at home as well.
