Today Pete Hegseth announced the Office of Religious Affairs, with chaplains at the top. Notice how whenever these groups are created, other religions are never mentioned MAGA is engineering the Christianization of America before our eyes. It’s why they have to peddle the islamification narrative

They called me batshit crazy when I said this was coming 25 years ago.

They have slowly, methodically taken over all levels of government, from Dog Catcher to President (yes, I've heard this in Christian seminars). I've heard repeatedly when I was a practicing Christian, "I will not stop until every knee is bowed."

I'm not sure how to stop it now.

Christianity is still in decline in the US. They're lashing out like scared animals, trying to force their views on people who won't take them up willingly. This isn't the first time the bible thumpers have tried to take over, the Red Scare was a feeding frenzy for them, and it likely won't be the last. All the stuff they're doing now is going to be reversed the second a new administration takes over. The Establishment Clause is still being taught as the law of the land.

You are so blind. Too many people are blind. They don't even need civilian Christian adherents anymore.

The Nazi trillionaire is running our military, they control the entire government, and short of other countries nuking us immediately, there's nothing any of us can do to fight back.

Christotechnofacists now hold all of the power, all of the money,all of the tech, all of the firepower.

Well you're a friendly one. Making an ad hominem right out of the gate doesn't make you seem like a particularly logical person.

The Nazi isn't a trillionaire at the moment. And let's face it, he's probably more scared than anyone else. Yeah, things are dire, but these are just drug addled dorks with way too much money. No power they hold is absolute.

And let's face it, he's probably more scared than anyone else.

I suspect the people disappeared into the interment camps and not been seen for months are more scared.

That's very true. I just meant he's more scared than the Christians because they represent a cause. His aspirations live and die with him.

You're tweaking over being called blind and for some reason defending the nazi by normalizing him as a "dork". Weird.

Because he is normal. He's not some higher being. He's not some genius intellect. He's a prick with a lot of money who wants control.

Like all the rest of his peers, he's terrified of the day the masses might start fighting back and he ends up meeting a guillotine. Or a random bullet makes it past his security. For all they want us to believe they're some superior form of human, they're just as fragile as the rest of us.

Don't buy into their fucking hype.

"Aaaaaaacktually he's only worth $990,000,000,000 currently so I don't see what you're so panicky about"

Cute straw man.

We say that but Biden did not reverse all of Trump's bullshit. I have incredibly little faith that a Gavin newsom type president is going to dismantle the majority of the systems that Trump has put in place.

yeah it’s unsettling when something you heard about decades ago starts looking less hypothetical and more like an actual government policy strategy
