No one should be surprised that as these people seize power, which is what they are doing, the party, not the dumbass president and his goons alone, this doesn't end with him, that they kick people out of the in group as they don't need them.
That is fascist 101. These fucking dumbshits trust the ones that will kick them out to tell them what to do.
It's MY cult, not your cult that's good. Only MY cult should be recognized.
I love this Christian infighting.
many speakers are anti-Mormon
this here is coded language. for one, it shows you that the author is mormon (no one else uses the term anti-mormon)
Wouldn't a Mormon say that the speakers are anti LDS, since they consider 'Mormon' to border on a slur?
You think a liberal feminist journalist who attended a Catholic university in Austin is a Mormon?
Utah exists for a reason. The Christian death cult and all its fucked-ed up spin-offs have always been like this.
*Grammar edit
I'm far too tired to read the article, but Christians disliking other Christians and thinking that other Christians aren't real Christians is totally on point.
Naively I think this fits, but just based on the title.
We have hundreds of years of religious wars in Europe that proves it's an old Christian tradition.
And there is this old commandment that is like to be ignored.
Thou shalt not kill. *
Ew that AI generated headline made me throw up in my mouth a bit
And they think they'll all get along once they get rid of all the blacks and gays? Nope, they move on to the next other and repeat.
No, they already want to get rid of hispanics, leftists, unions, political challengers, judges that rule against them, oh yeah, and honest elections, to name few.
In this is why „the left are only fighting each other, the right’s a unified front“ is just demoralising bullshit.
The significant difference is that the right still vote for the right.
No it just shows their morals aren't even foundational. They would vote Democrat if they thought it would gave them power of others.
And thats how fascism works.
On the contrary, many speakers are anti-Mormon, including Trump ally and Southern Baptist megachurch pastor Robert Jeffress, who has repeatedly called the Latter Day Saints a “cult.”
Not wrong, but utterly rich coming from the cult of inbreeding.
Without even reading the article, I — and untold large numbers of far more scholarly types — could have told you that. Who among those not under the mass delusionment spell doesn't know this?
Yeah, incoherence and hypocrisy is baked into fascism. That is literally how it has always worked and partially why it is so succesful for some groups of people.
I strongly encourage nasty in-fighting among Christian cults.
"Hey Mormons, you gonna let those Protestants and Catholics get away with saying you're not real Christians? I wouldn't, but I'm not a little bitch."
Trump and MAGA: build concentration camps, detain and murder US citizens, bomb children
Liberals: But it's incoherent!
AND it's incoherent.
Yes, you're right, but the questions is who cares if it's coherent or not? Imagine complaining that Fascist not only murdered millions of people but their ideology was also incoherent. Missing the forest for the trees?
It obviously changes the remedy. WTF, man.
I care. Because every day I wake up to more of this fucking nightmare and all I can hope for is that some of the gaping chasms 'we' see everyday becomes visible as cracks to the slavering base and peel off a few more. If one person sees the inconsistency and abstains or goes for 3rd party then I think the few seconds of time posting was worth it.
Yeah, I think hoping that arguments about incoherent ideologies will sway voters is exactly why democrats keep losing.
That is a pretty weird take to me. Especially with all of the other, much more visible, reasons democrats keep losing. But I'm not here to change your mind. Nor do I think there is a ton of hope in changing hearts and minds when both of the organs are rotten to the core by 70 years of rightwing fuckery in schools, media, and public discourse. But hoping when hope is mostly gone is kind of my thing.
The other reasons are just more symptoms of the same thing: being out of touch with the people. Party leaders keep talking about how MAGA are hypocrites or how right wing legal theories are flawed like it's going to convince anyone to stop voting for Trump. It won't.
