How Trump supporters, a lot them I know hard-line McCarthyists, don’t see the takeover of the US by Russia is fucking beyond me. But then again, it was never about Russia, it was always about authoritarianism.
I always wonder: Why is it tied so closely to American evangelical Christianity?
And it makes sense if you consider:
They need some absolute power to punish people different than them
They believe they are absolutely correct per God (gott mins uns, anyone?)
And no mentally healthy reasonable grown up human believes in magical stories about sexy abs-jacked Jesus performing magic.
They’re all liars. Arguing in bad faith
It’s all to punish anyone different thab them who have things they wish they had.
The entire objective is some weird “prima noctum” scheme where they remove all the men, and force all the women to birth their rape babies.
I’m sure there’s some other plausible explanation for what they are doing.
Right? There’s another reason for all this? And it’s not rape and murder and theft.
Right?
Please?
I got some information about human history you seem to already be privy to.
Please stop putting each sentence on a different line.
It doesn’t make you more profound.
It just makes it impossible to read.
It’s also much more simple.
The US right wing is based on religion.
So if they want to talk up a different country.
They just have to say how they’re a good Christian country.
With Christian values, just like them.
Thank you for your Input
I am not seeking profundity it’s just how i organize my thoughts.
If it bothers you, a downvote would work.
Or you could take it personal and believe I am assaulting your perceived mundanity. And accuse me of trying to be “profound”
You do you man! I like you just the way you are
If it bothers you, a downvote would work.
Orrrrrrrrrrrr I could provide constructive feedback.
Instead of random downvotes that you don’t know why.
If you write like this profesionally.
I have news for you.
And it’s not good.
I am a professional writer.
I write code.
White space is important for readability.
It helps other coders read your stuff
But if you came here to argue with mw let’s argue about something more substantive than your hatred of my use of white space.
Shohei Ohtani: better than babe Ruth?
it must be springtime
the style police have emerged
discourse now narrows
Sigh.
If you write reports.
Or emails.
Or literally any words in sentences.
Like on Lemmy.
Then it doesn’t work.
Code is different.
I think you know this.
But you are being obtuse.
Your loneliness is tangible. I’m sorry you feel that way.
I am not here writing a report. Or seeking your validation.
This is how I communicate.
No me importa si lo gusta.
Shohei vs the babe?
I always wonder: Why is it tied so closely to American evangelical Christianity?
The answer to this, from what I understand, is SUPER fascinating and a rather straight line with only a single detour. In one word: racism.
Prior to the civil rights movement, you’ll see a higher rate of people who consider themselves religious or of faith, but fewer fundamentalists. When schools started integrating and leading up to Brown v Board of Education, a lot of racist assholes were upset that their child might go to school with someone
coloredof color (holy shit, what’s wrong with me today??).Since public schools were becoming a cesspool of inclusivity (THE HORROR!), private schools realized they could become a safe-haven for segregationists and make bank off of an easily-exploitable, single-issue population. A trusted source of private schooling were churches and they were more than happy to do a racism if it meant easy money.
The religious schools were mutually beneficial for the parents, too. Their kid didn’t go to private school because the parents were racist and wanted their children away from the “colored folk”, they sent their kid to private school because God was super-important and needed to be in the kids’ schooling. Why? Cuz we’re super-religious now!
That’s the ticket! We’re not racist, we’re religious!!! To keep up appearances, the parents would drag their family to church to prove how godly and un-racist they were.
In summary: why are the bigots often intertwined with evangelicals? Cuz you can use God to justify how much you truly suck.
They have exquisite couches in russia
JD knows what Trump supports.
You can see it in their leaked chat group. They hate hate hate hate democracy. They love dictators and monarchies, nothing negative at all to day about those guys.
Its the same way he justifies being a racist bigot when he is married to a non Caucasian woman.
