This is particularly crazy when you see how many NFL venues are scheduled to host Kanye West, a guy who literally released a song about Hitler. Including two of the stadiums who threatened Sheeran! But he didn’t say anything good about Palestinians so it’s fine.

It's always been a joke among the more secular left that organized Christianity in America is a scam, and I used to think maybe it bordered on asshole reddit atheism, but this video not prompting an outright Christian revolt in the GOP is the ultimate proof that there *are* no Christians in the GOP.

What this whole era of American politics has revealed to me is just how many American Christians are fundamentally lying atheists, straight up. If you think this is okay, you don't really believe in God or Jesus Christ or anything at all.

If only the media had as much interest in the world's richest person, the primary funder of the Republican Party, who spoke at Trump's Inauguration and gave a Sieg Heil, once again declaring his belief "white solidarity is the only way to survive" as they do some Twitch streamer.

The arguments used by the right wing are easily disproven bullshit. But when it looks like there's no powerful champions for one side of an argument, people absorb the side that yells loudest. The cowardice of elite Democrats allowed bigots to create this shitshow.

"if you gave a fascist a lever that expelled or exterminated every non-white person in their country, they would pull it—and they’d be enthusiastic about doing so. Historically, when fascism has fully seized the state, it has built such a lever and then pulled it."

the reason why the reactionaries haven’t yet managed to design a single functional, lasting modern society on the basis of their ideology is because they don’t even actually want to embrace tradition or custom, but to impose what is “traditional” and “customary” on top of actual tradition by force
