It always seems like there are deep pockets for stuff like this. Meanwhile, trying to keep the outright fascists out of office…crickets.

These people would claim that they are the only TRUE xtians, and declare that other denominations are not “real” xtians (or just call them “pagan”, lol, which is xtian-speak for “RINO”).
Eh, I don’t know how much playing the No True Scotsman really gets us, though.
I don’t want any religion of any kind having any say over what we do in a secular context. All of them, no matter what they are called, can go fuck themselves the minute they think they get special privileges over others.
All of these people can go fuck themselves. They can put copies of “the” ten commandments up in their homes or their places of worship and we’ll tolerate it. That’s how tolerance works.
Those not in their little book club have zero fucks to give when it comes to their rules. Their rules are for them; they don’t apply to others in a secular nation.
Yep. The racist and anti-intellectual undertow goes back a long way. It is not just Ronnie Raygun (or donnie, for that matter), it’s a very long tradition of this nasty stuff.
Democracy in Chains details efforts underway long before Ronnie Raygun slithered into office.
Ronnie helped set in motion so many things…including Faux “News”.
People would do well to remember just how much Ronnie Raygun ruined this country and set us on the path to the loser that is donnie.
Even now, you’ll see gaslighting from Enlightened Centrists and people on the supposed left that Iran/Contra was not really that bad, even if it is arguably far, far worse than Watergate. But Ronnie and Bush I were given a pass on it, since America was “exhausted” or some such bullshit the “liberal media” spun at the time.
Of course, the right are utterly unhinged when it comes to ronnie, possibly only surpassed by donnie in their worship.
He “loves” it for all of YOU people. Rules for him? Fuck that noise.
pardoned
It’s too bad there is not a way to have a pardon from a “president” like donnie invalidated for donnie being a traitor. Same with naming justices.
Our Constitution needs some updates…
To be fair, they were building up to it for a very long time. Like everything else, donnie just slaps his name on other people’s work.
Assholes like Murdoch, Ailes, Limbaugh - and all his imitators on hate radio, the Koch Brothers, Alex Jones, Newt Gingrich, the Blessed Saint Ronnie Raygun himself (PBUH), etc…have been working to dismantle any semblance of sanity, reasonableness, and consensus reality for decade upon decade.
The arrival of someone like donnie is just the latest and most visible symptom of this conservative rot.
…Palin and Michele Bachmann enter the chat…
Anyway, these people are just a cult at this point. They look at a complete dumbass like Bobo, giving handjobs in public, and think she’s “owning the libs”, when all she is to normal Americans is a complete fucking joke and total assclown.
Aileen is just so very compromised.
I feel sorry for people that fall for companies that do performative things like slap some colors on a product…
Also: what are you if you are anti-anti-fascist?
Also take note of how they call everyone they don’t like a Communist? You know who else spent a lot of time obsessing over Communists and murdering them?
I wasn’t aware these dirtbags ever went away.
I’ll have to check it out. Every time I see some of the radical xtianist/magabrained set in action, I think about the way that America is portrayed in The Rapture of the Nerds.
Yeah, while I get the general idea of “beware of the hubris brought about by technology”, but the message from the bible way oversteers into general ignorance and so on. There is a real anti-Promethean streak within this country anyway, and I attribute a lot of that to xtians.
I’d be all for trying to up our game in the instruction of critical thinking and spotting logical fallacies. I think if religion were to be removed, it might just be supplanted by something just as stupid (for example: the antivax/“stop the steal”/antimask/qanon/pizzagate memeplex) instead of being supplanted by reason.
Yeah, it’s interesting to see how many different ways something like Kabbalah is spelled…
And then there are nefarious groups like ALEC or COR (Coalition on Revival)…
