Man I am so fucking ready for the Nationalist Christians to become huge fucking pariahs as a direct result of all of the idiocy that they’ve been pushing

    we had roughly the same (only with a non-oppressive temperature scale). Last night I had to toss snow onto my driveway so i wouldn't have a sheet of glare ice where things had previously melted.

    Christian Nationalism (fascism) is on the rise globally.

    Because less than a dozen humans with more money than god control the global media.

    I know americans aren't great at understanding the basics of the global political field but calling Christian Nationalism fascism is extra ridiculous

    Alright High and Mighty my point with putting fascism in parentheses was mostly to say that what we are dealing with globally is Fascism. Just that where I am it has presented itsself as Christian Nationalism.

    Wrapped in the flag carrying a bible and all that.

    Its why they are so terrified of James Talarico. Because he is everything they are pretending to be and stands a real chance of breaking the masses illusion that American Christian Nationalists are either Christian or Nationalist.

    They are neither. They are fascists only loyal to their leader. Not to their God. Certainly not to their country.

    High and Mighty thanks you for providing an explanation, which was definitely needed here.
    And fascists have a well established pattern of disguising their ideology as something else.
    the OG's have somewhat given that name a bad reputation.
    If they would call it the fascist Party not event he bulk of the awful people who have the same awful views would vote for them.
    Not many would say of themselves they are fascists, like assholes won't say they're assholes.
    That would be too confronting since they know it's wrong. They choose to delude themselves.
