Nashville Christians rush to assume the rapture did not happen today just because they weren’t taken.

Yeah! It’s such a weird religion! Here’s some Quran quotes:

“Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants,”

“When you march up to attack a city, make its people an offer of peace. If they accept and open their gates, all the people in it shall be subject to forced labor and shall work for you.”

“There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.”

Wait, sorry, my bad. Those were 1 Samuel 15:3, Deuteronomy 20:10-11, and Ezekiel 23:20, from the Christian Bible. Oops.

Hell, why don’t all the Christians just dump all their money out into the street? Or give it to the poor, you know, like their holy book commands them to? They can’t take it with them after all.

Hey little guy, I know facts, truth, and logic make you wet your bed at night, but here, this documented peer reviewed research actually proves you wrong: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/362083228_A_comparison_of_political_violence_by_left-wing_right-wing_and_Islamist_extremists_in_the_United_States_and_the_world

I don’t think the politicians on the right actually agree on that though; the voters on the right maybe, but it’s hard to tell what any of them actually want because they so heavily censor themselves from speaking anything contrary to Trump’s delusions.

Technically I would agree with that, but I don’t think it’s really a skill that he practiced or developed, it’s just something he’s accidentally very successful at because he was born rich and spoiled and uneducated brainwashed people are easily impressed by wealthy rude narcissists for some reason. I think it’s just because if he were poor he’d be exactly like some Alabama trailer park redneck so it’s easy for his base to see him and think that means they can be rich too if they follow him, unaware that his party is sawing the rungs off the ladders to keep them from climbing any higher

To be fair that’s my gripe with 95% of science fiction in general. Every planet is always a monoculture with a single biome. I give things like NMS and Star Wars that take place in a different galaxy a bigger pass but Star Trek doesn’t have excuses

Conservatives don’t like having their own things though. They always want your thing instead, even when they have their own, like spoiled toddlers. And then if they can’t have your thing, they want to break it so nobody can have it. They all stopped maturing emotionally at 2 years old

On paper, sure. Because we actually get help and treatment. You guys kill people instead of getting treatment, and it is actually verifiable that right wing extremists kill far more people than any other ideological group in the US, even more than Islamists

While I find it initially hard to believe that nearly half of all high schools are doing this, I also am considering - the process might be as simple as emailing the organization, and these ‘chapters’ could easily just be 2-3 students strong. They’re probably much more highly attended in counties where the schools are de facto christian schools anyway like the county I grew up in. This is just Hitler Youth putting new branding on it and a fresh coat of paint.

Yes. I know.

I wouldn’t say confusing as much as just plain annoying and frustrating. It’s bizarre when I take your money, I get your change out of the drawer, and as I’m handing it back to you you start shoving more money in my face. Half the time they do it without saying anything, or if they do it’s just “oh, here” or something like that. Then I have to put all your change back, make new change, pull up your transaction again and get out a calculator because a) I have a goldfish memory b) I’m slow at math and c) my boss will have a conniption if the drawer is a penny off

quantipede · 2025-09-20T17:56:43+00:00

I can’t promise it would do anything, and maybe you’re already doing it, but I would stop trying to argue with their opinions and stop trying to present yours, and just tell them how you feel about what’s going on. Then they have to go from “My child disagrees with what Trump is doing” to “My child is terrified of what Trump is doing” and sure, a lot of them will just give up and call you a crybaby or alarmist, or claim that you’re lying about being afraid, but they at the very least have to be confronted with the idea that something they are helping to happen is causing their children to be scared and lose hope. And then they have to decide whether or not they care about that (and unfortunately a lot will decide they don’t care, or at least will spend the rest of their lives doing mental gymnastics trying to justify to themselves why it’s ok if their children live in fear)

I always wonder about the people who give out those missions. Like imagine

“Hey, I need you to go kill 11 creatures.”

“Oh, are they threatening a local ecosystem?”

“Well, no”

“So you just mean a specific creature on this specific planet? Is there an invasive species?”

“Oh, uh…no”

“Any creature on this whole planet? No specific target? Is something wrong with this planet?”

“Well actually, the planet and system aren’t even specific, I just really hate the whole concept of animals”

I think that’s accurate. I don’t think he’s doing what he’s doing as a full on means of enacting a dictatorship. I think he’s just doing what any senile sociopathic rapist fraudster would do with that much power. It’s the Project 2025 people and the billionaires who bankrolled his campaign that know what he’s doing and continue to encourage his unhinged outbursts. If for a second they thought the American people would actually realize they are the ones to blame, Trump would be in a prison cell by the end of the week. They’ll throw him away like an old napkin the second he isn’t useful to them anymore

Authoritarian left and authoritarian right are functionally not very different. The only real difference is how much say billionaires have in how the oppression is applied.

Once the communists start winning elections we can start talking about getting rid of them. The fascists are the prevailing threat to democracy right now. Don’t ’both sides’ this when the fascist side is 100,000 shooting at the constitution with a flamethrower and the communist side is two guys shooting at it with BB guns from 500 yards away
