       For any Christian saying they aren’t attempting to force religion on anyone. It is now right out in the open.  https://goodmenproject.com/featured-content/controversial-preacher-says-every-church-should-take-over-their-town/

       @philip_cardella All Germans didn’t agree with Hitler.   Yet, Roe V Wade was just overturned, trans care banned, as are books dealing with anything they disagree with.  A few stand up to this Christo-fascist takeover, but in my experience it isn’t different than the NRA.  Lots of defense of the body, while anyone caught is a “lone wolf”.  “All that evil needs to prevail is for good men to do nothing” And I see teligion doing a LOT of nothing about these types.

       @philip_cardella Yes 50 years ago.  And Democrats were white supremacists 100 years ago.   Not all Germans were brownshirts either. But far more than enough were silent, allowing them to take over.  Anyone that can’t see the Christian silence and denial regarding Trump, SCOTUS, Proud Boys, Moms for Liberty, White Supremacy, attack on “Woke” etc. etc. is firmly entrenched in the denial.  I will bet my house a HUGE majority of ALL those groups are self identified “Christians”.

       @philip_cardella And again, not all Germans voted for Hitler or were brownshirts.  But again, all that is anecdotal as there are never, ever absolutes. Now as then, a large minority support what is happening, and the majority just stay silent.  The message is clear.

       @nanoelquant @philip_cardella “organized by who?” OMFG…https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moms_for_Liberty    Pick a group.  Proud Boys.  III percenters.  Patriot Prayer.  I could go on listing them all day….  All have nearly 100% Christian participants.

       @nanoelquant @philip_cardella You hadn’t heard of them. And? Just more anecdotes… Meanwhile, school boards across America are being attacked (by organized Christians).  https://www.pfaw.org/school-boards-become-the-religious-rights-new-pulpit-education-alliances-of-conservative-christian-parents-political-groups-take-control-of-panels-spark-battles/

       @nanoelquant @philip_cardella And that would be true of that were the claim. BUT IT WASN’T.  I said “Christians” (as in more than one) and have further explained that there is no such thing as 100% of anything.  Name a white supremacy group, anti-LGTBQ group, fascist group, misogynist group, etc. etc. And I will bet my house they are predominantly Christian.  The majority of Germans weren’t brownshirts. But a majority either supported them directly, tacitly, or stayed silent.  Just as Christians are doing with fascists right now.  Hey I get it, you don’t want to own them.  But they claim you, and a majority of Christians support them or stay silent.  And that says volumes

       In March 2024, as the Republican presidential primary heats up, Trump will also be on trial in New York on criminal charges regarding falsified business records, to make hush money payments to an adult-film star during the 2016 presidential campaign.  The documents were altered to hide the money, and the money payed to the porn star. None of that is contested.  That is the current state of the Republican party.

       Not to be hyperbolic, but if America elects one of the leading Republicans president, democracy (and likely the world) is f*cked. https://www.rawstory.com/prageru-florida-2662923106/

       This is complete bullshit, let me explain by example. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/08/08/jack-smith-trump-jan-6-indictment-fail/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=news_tab&mibextid=Zxz2cZ   I believe you stole my lawn mower. I tell everyone. I have theories about it. I hire an investigator who finds nothing. I take you to court and lose.  I still ”believe” you stole it. It is STILL illegal if I attempt to break in your garage to take the lawnmower I “beleieve” is mine. PERIOD.

       @hankg I did the same. Thevfristrating part is that any of them still have anything close to axmajor platform to spew their proto-fascist garbage.

       We can no longer indulge the enablers, that Trump os a normal candidate or that the republican party is a normal democratic institution. Those in control do not believe in the constitution and are dedicated to dismantling our institutions. We need at least two functioning parties that believe in democracy and our constitution in America.  Unfortunately the Republican party is not one. It has become an enemy of democracy. https://www.facebook.com/1364509289/posts/pfbid02fYkVBLga5kd4HuAtZn6PFtUPw2eCov6hYTMXt7oH6mGGXAZMreAk4sTJcQUEEfuDl/?mibextid=cr9u03

       Little discussed tidbit in Cohen’s testimony. “Cohen explained, Trump had been polling low in a CNBC poll and was upset, so Cohen reached out to Red Finch, which said they could create an algorithm to boost his results in the poll. “This should be a scandal all by itself.
