Sometimes. There’s this idea of being a “fool for God,” of God laying “the worldly wise” low and raising up ordinary believers to accomplish his will/great things. There’s a major strain of anti-intellectualism even if many would not directly frame it as something akin to “ignorance = holiness”

Anti-intellectualism is a deep vein in US history. Ignorance, has also been associated w/"honesty," "common sense," & "authenticity," qualities completely unrelated to it. @thebugbeardispatch.bsky.social Hello. In evangelical dogma, is ignorance considered to bring a person closer to God?

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

The Heritage Foundation funded similar watch lists of public servants deemed woke because of extreme radical activity like employment at USAID or CDC, practicing immigration law, or posting a selfie with Walter Mondale. They literally refer to these individuals as "targets"

Watching the Trump regime slander Kilmar Garcia, who has been proven guilty of nothing, and reward Ghislaine Maxwell, who still lies about her conviction and 1,100 cases of sexual exploitation, should remind you that fascism is about accusing others of fake crimes to get away with real ones.

Alt text: A tweet from Laura Rozen (@lrozen) reads, “Trump has no public events scheduled all weekend. Don’t believe he was seen today either.” Below the tweet is a screenshot of what appears to be the White House press schedule, showing listings for August 31 and September 1, 2025, each stating “THE PRESIDENT has no public events scheduled.” The schedule includes pool call times and lists of media outlets assigned but confirms no public events.

In the reactionary mind, everything used to be peaceful and harmonious until “they” (women, Black people, the gays, Jews, etc) politicized things and divided the nation.

Equating "Christian" with "good" only serves to reinforce the Christian hegemony and privilege that gives authoritarian Christians cover. It's wildly counterproductive. Christianity is what Christians do in the world with their texts and traditions

I legitimately don’t even know what a “trans extremist” would even be. 🤷🏽‍♂️ We support transgender folks? Or we just think they exist? There’s nothing “extreme” about supporting queer folks and centrists trying to “both sides” everything need to knock it off.

The “he gets us” campaign can fuck off. Their commercial shows a bunch of poor Latino people followed by the tag line “Jesus was a refugee too.” Yeah, but not on this side of the world! He was born in the West Bank. But they don’t wanna talk about that. What a crock.

Where's the guy on here who was like "Trump can't end birthright citizenship; the people deported will just file for an injunction because you can't deport US citizens" Meanwhile this is under Biden and it's only going to get worse next month under Trump.

The trans panic is just a rehash of old homophobic ideas, Exhibit A.
Tumblr post by maykitz:

reading a book from 1962 proclaiming the tiny percentage of "true" homosexuals should be left alone as a disabled minority but that the real problem is the growing epidemic of socially contagion'ed young people who only feel gay because of societal stress, mental problems and the derogation of women and that homosexual extremists ought to accept the reasonable compromise of not being actively persecuted in exchange for the institution of a conversation therapy-first approach plus laws that protect vulnerable impressionable children from being infected by a trend that will lead to psychological and physical damage

That photo is the 21st century version of the lynching postcards that white people would buy and send to their friends. Such people also told themselves that the violence they inflicted was justified, used to placate someone they considered "a threat" to their community that had to be neutralized.

Even if we grant that Penny was rightfully found innocent, what he did should haunt him and the nation for decades. He took the life of another human being with his bare hands, in a public setting, while others watched. What sort of society treats that act as something to be celebrated?

Daniel Penny murdered Jordan Neely, a young Black man for being homeless. He choked him to death and then the state acquitted him. The CEO who was killed profited off of people going into medical debt so severe that they could have ended up in the same situation as Jordan Neely.

Eisenhower approved the INS to conduct Operation Wetback in 1954. Many US citizens were illegally deported. Saying it can’t happen again is foolish.

I just keep seeing people earnestly suggesting that democrats need to do this thing or the other and it’s like what in their history makes you believe they intend to do any of those things. Two months ago he was the biggest fascist in modern history. Now they’re going to go to his party on MLK Day.

If there was a “coarsening” of society, surely it occurred when businesses were established to profit off denying people healthcare. The main joke people are making in response to Thompson’s death is merely to treat it with the bloodless bureaucratic indifference that these companies perfected.

They have fought tooth and nail against laws prohibiting persecuting minorities for decades, and they are cornered and this is their last push. They want to undo every civil rights advance since the 1950’s.

In conclusion, Elon Musk & a bunch of other bigots have bought billions of dollars of propaganda to persecute a vulnerable minority of humanity — because it’s politically viable to do so, & persecuting based on skin colour or nationality or etc is legal & political suicide.

Bigots treat this fact as if it were a trans shitposter joke or lie, but it is true. Chromosomes stop playing a role in phenotype (organ development) in the embryo during the first trimester, & can be overridden by maternal hormonal levels & other epigenetic factors. Hormones! Not Chromosomes!
