Personally, I aged out of the whole edgelord ‘Religion bad!’ in my early 20s. I just ignore it. People believe what they want. If it doesnt harm anyone, who cares?

But it harms everyone, so that’s why lots of secular people are"edgelords" their entire lives. It’s a travesty, you just refuse to acknowledge it; but the endless stream of abuses remain ongoing around the world.

They’re terrifying.

My entire childhood was spent in churches… Catholic, Baptist, and Assembly of God… and their schools.

They all had one thing in common, they were bat-shit crazy. I was horrified every day, adulthood and leaving them behind was a magnificent relief.

This is a huge part of why America is such a shithole, in my opinion.

… and of course they don’t pay taxes in the USA, with far greater tax relief than any secular non-profits… so we all get to pay for their ridiculous drek, whether Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Mormons, even Church of Scientology, the taxpayers carry them all.

I’ve been told here on Lemmy that all the US needs to do is print more money.

Turns out that guy was right! He must work at The Fed or at least be a banker or something.

I’m sorry for doubting your claims

I agree with you, the Democrats aren’t going to reform anything, even if they wanted to (and they don’t).

A financial collapse seems inevitable at this point, Balkanization may be a very good thing. There’s no need for a civil war, we’re nicely divided already and have functioning state governments that will quickly replace the Federals. That’s best case scenario.

Worst case scenario? Civil War II, but really, “The South” has even less of a chance of winning now. This seems unlikely. Best to just cut them off and stop propping up their miserable states, within a generation or two they will learn that they need us (coastal cities) far more than we need them.

Jesus isn’t going to come save the day, no matter what The Christian Broadcasting Network says.

Dark humor isn’t right wing! This meme is mean to me

…and Charlie Kirk is a perfect slow-ball setup… my favorite straight man… he’s a human Gusher… the leaning tower of MAGA… Squirtle, I choose you! I could go on all day.

Dark humor is memento mori, not sexist and racist jokes! That’s black humor. Get it? THANK YOU, YOU’RE A TERRIFIC AUDIENCE

Noooooooooooooo

You’re misusing “whataboutism”, you should drop that from your rotation.

We’re not limited to one point of discussion here, etc.

Primus~ “He’s a murderer, how dare he murder Bob!”

Secundus~ “That’s because Bob killed his entire family!”

Primus~ “Whataboutism!”

Secundus~ “You win the debate, I am wrong, I’m sorry.”

I know you’ve heard the term many times and are excited to join in… but don’t.

Why do you believe the “democracy perceptions index”?

Take a look at their supporters… like Palantir and Microsoft.

Double Debbie Downer?

I don’t get it, still funny to me. You are a debbie downer
