What that has to do with Santa, why the hell Santa was the stand-in for his weird violent fantasizing, what exactly is meant to be funny about any of it, and why he decided to post these pictures publicly? Idk. Also, the implication of this is that he is angry to the point of desiring to do violence to beaurocrats, which is to say actual people in government. And he is wondering why people think he is unhinged. permalink fedilink source parent [–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 18 points 8 months ago Apparently mega-fundies hate Santa because he’s too “secular” and distracts from Jesus. Nothing says “Jesus’ love” like beating someone up. permalink fedilink source parent
