Awful move if you're trying to win free and fair elections in 2026.

Helpful move if what you're trying to do is convince your deranged base that the rigging of elections you're about to do is justified and necessary.

    It's pathetic that anyone now is upset at anyone who isn't in their same religion. And the screams of communist! Are also tired and sad

    I agree, but unfortunately a lot of religions teach "it's my way, or the highway" causing those people to believe everyone else is wrong

    For some reason you can believe what you want, except when it comes to religious things

    We're finally starting to get the left we deserve instead of the one pulled center by an opposition giving cover to rapists, pedophiles, spousal abusers and murderers.

    In a country where a huge amount of people thought Biden was a communist a party like that might go over like a lead balloon.

    Yeah but now Americans are actually directly being affected by the fascist idiots that ripped the mask off early.

    At this point a decent number of them are starting to wonder if the opposite side won't be as bad. And that's all that's necessary to start righting the ship, if people are actually willing to step up and not just let the same octogenarian power brokers keep running everything.

    We went from Trump being elected a second time, to a dozen Democratic Socialists being elected and districts flipping 30+ points in just 2 years.

    Eventually people start to wonder why the rain is yellow and tastes like piss.

    Honestly even at face value a "godless communist" sounds pretty great right now.

    I acknowledge that communism is not without its problems, but the US can afford to head in that direction for a few years.

    “They will close your churches in this country. They go communist, and they’re trying to. They will kill your people, and that’s what they’re about. They want to end religion,” he said.

    Nothing scares Americans like the threat of the godless, freedom hating communists coming to burn down your church and kill your family. It's effective. They wouldn't keep doing it if it didn't work.

    Literally what their greatest ~~teacher ~~

    Mascot. Although according to their mythology, he did spend a great deal of effort on teaching, his would-be students refused to learn - a trait true of Christians to this day.

    They love iconography of the guy though! ...no not that iconography - can we make him more white? Perfect. That iconography.

    That's my point though. If I deliver a lecture to a brick wall, even an insightful, logical, factual, beautifully executed lecture, am I a teacher? For one to teach, another must learn. If Christians reject the lessons of their own god, the whole production is just one giant tragedy about a man and his son-self thing fruitlessly pleading with a pile of bricks. Despite their best effort, the bricks did not, do not, and will not learn; actively denying Sky Daddy & Super J the role of 'teacher'.

    Christians aren't a monolith, but Christianity is. My assessment of it is as a whole, although you're correct that doing so is unfair to the individuals who manage to not be corrupted by it. Still, even if those individuals aren't actively participating in the evils perpetuated by Christianity, they are actively supporting them, which makes me question if they're sincerely good people, or if they're just wearing an outward veneer to make the evil shit easier to swallow. The Bible itself addresses these types in it's scrutiny of the Pharisees: that there's a modern version comes as no surprise.

    Remember that time he called mamdani and evil communist terrorist Muslim jihadist and the worst thing that can happen to New York. Then he won, met Trump and then Trump said he’ll be great for New York and is a nice guy.

    Almost like the guy has no actual morals or ideals or anything really. And is in fact just evil himself.

    Letting the government do anything good for you and your community, is the Republicans' definition of communism and socialism. According to Republicans in Congress and the Trump admin and the Supreme Court, the role of the federal government is to subsidize billionaires and trillionaires, undertake vanity DC projects that are utter failures, start pointless wars they can't finish, make everything unaffordable, tax Americans through tariffs, pardon criminals only in exchange for bribes gratuities, and send goon squads to harass immigrants and dissenters.

    Under these terms, who wouldn't want communism and socialism?

    Is this the same “god” that demands rich people give all their wealth the poor and needy, and that their followers do everything in their power to provide for the needs and well-being of others?

    I think you’re confused it’s the god that wants poor people to give everything they have to the rich people.

    Yeah as usual we've lost the messaging. Today all the media I saw on it were reporting on how democratic socialists want to "reshape society" by "doing away with capitalism" and "defunding the police" which - I'm sorry buy that shit slaps in rural and especially the South. I doubt a single Republican in my state could accurately describe what democratic socialism is all about beyond some culture war garbage. And these were quotes BY THE FUCKING DSA.

    If Democrats were godless communists they might actually help improve life for ordinary Americans. Unfortunately they're mostly neoliberals, like the Republicans were before they came out as fascist.

    A generous helping of godless communism would do the USA some good.

    Man I wish more politicians were godless. As it stands, atheists and "nones" are still grossly under represented at all levels, even relative to the number that exist in the county.

    Average citizens won't necessarily call themselves atheist, but even if you include agnostics and "nones" and other unaffiliated people, it's somewhere around 30%. In Congress, it's four people (which is better than last Congress when it was just mother fucking Kristen Sinema.). It's worse than pretty much every other religious categorization.
