“Welcome to the end of democracy!” Posobiec declared. “We’re here to overthrow it completely. We didn’t get all the way there on January 6th, but we will endeavor to get rid of it and replace it with this right here,” he said, holding his fist in the air. “That’s right, because all glory is not to government, all glory to God.”

Steve Bannon, former White House adviser, is heard in the background exclaiming, “All right! Amen!”

All Republicans are perfectly happy with the idea of having a (Christo-)fascist dictatorship in power in the U.S. . All that they care about is that the dictatorship rewards them with money and power. I know Republicans like this, people you might think were just ordinary folks, and they’re masters of telling themselves stories to justify their violence and thievery and masters at not seeing anything that might cause cognitive dissonance, to the extent that they’re capable of that at all.

    Then you should hang around different religious people, because that’s given you an unjustifiably negative bias.

        I’ve told you that they’re unjustifiable and false, that’s the extent of my contribution to them.

            Your “lived experiences” amount to nothing more than bigotry and prejudice.

                  We should tax churches and use the funds for abortions and gender affirmation surgeries.

                    Apropos of nothing, but we could easily fund abortion and gender affirmation surgeries by pulling back the insane military budget rather than taxing churches.
