  • Let’s remember that it’s a different kind of love, a love where eternal suffering is considered appropriate, and even just, and that when a Christian says they are excited about Jesus’s return, that means that He will return at the head of a Holy Army and they will murder every non-Christian.

    The lake of blood will be 200 miles wide, up to a horse’s bridle!

    So, they “love” you, but, yeah.




  • I think you’ve put the cart before the horse, sorry to yell at clouds but I was raised in a “small town” and I can tell you that racism was rampant long before the media became so invasive (pre-internet).

    They’re not trying to influence as much as they are chasing the dollar, they are catering to a big market. These people have always thought they were race warriors, and holy at that.





  • I was making 15 an hour when Clinton was President, no degree. I had to have roommates, it really wasn’t that much money where I lived.

    There are something like 40 MILLION workers making less than 17 an hour now.

    And for the “but most are teens” crowd, number one they are not mostly teens, and number two teens need to be able to afford housing, transportation, food, and the doctor, like everybody else, and their family needs the money too because minimum wage is freaking seven bucks an hour.

    Sorry kids, we need a new ballroom and you would not believe how much gold paint.

    We are a plutocracy, our government sold out long ago and is the most corrupt country of all time.

    I know that they say it’s actually pretty good and we are a rule of law country without a corruption problem, but unfortunately, that’s because we’ve made corruption and bribery perfectly legal.

    If you haven’t done this yet, check out Super PACs, long story short it’s a cash pipeline with laughably weak oversight, and everybody in government knows exactly why it legal.

    In 1970s FBI did a bribery catfish of reps, mayors, and more, and almost half of them took the bait and many were convicted of bribery (ABSCAM).

    Starting in 2000s, Super PACs allow unlimited funding and they don’t have to declare who gave it to them. The FBI is now investigating furries instead of congress.

    It’s a madhouse.
