Biden's administration has done more for Americans in 90 days that QRUMP did in four years!

(4,305 posts)They pretend to be religious and They hide behind religion to justify their despicable behavior and to have a sense of moral authority....but they really dont believe in the stuff that they preach...hence why they support Trump, and have hypocrites like Jerry Falwell and Josh Duggar

(2,636 posts)The Southerners used their religion and their bible to justify holding people in bondage, complete with the violence, rape and torture that went with it. With specious interpretations of the English bible, translated form the Latin, and the Greek, and the Hebrew....
Same people twisting the same bullshit mythology to hate everyone not like them while they violate their own behavioral standards over and over.
Religion shares the same Indo-European root word as Regulate.
Religions want to regulate what you can eat and with whom you can sleep, usually to the benefit of the patriarchy at the top.

I'm an American, and I assume you are, as well. Be more specific.

(16,725 posts)... believe a democracy is too hard, requires too much thinking, and is unnecessarily inclusive of too many people of varying persuasions, ethnic, and racial backgrounds.
They think a white supremacist strongman as head of our government is the only way to preserve white privilege, white power, and white racial supremacy, to the exclusion of all others.
Many are on the verge of contemplating civil war to preserve their inherently woven into the social fabric,.. their myriad of advantages currently expected and enjoyed by them.
This fascist propaganda of diminishing white advantage has for decades been pumped into their heads.
It took us awhile to realize their end game. It is the same end game of all fascist regimes. The goal is to crush democracy from within, built a formative coalition of like minded conspirators, then execute a quiet barely recognizable coup de' tat. Then proceed to fully trash any remaining remnants of a functional democracy by installing a tight fisted jackbooted Fascist state built on the theme of intolerance of countering opinions or viewpoints.
Fascism snuck up on us and is now banging and kicking in what we erroneously thought was the rigid and stable front door of our democracy. The Fascist barbarians are presently crashing through the gates and are dismantling piece by piece our protective walls. But we can't figure out what to do about it, what action to take to suppress this rampant out of control and overwhelming fascism.
The march of fascism persists,... we better get our act together to combat the onslaught of crushing fascist authoritarianism coming our way. Our democracy is under grave peril, they will not stop until they have totally decimated our government and then us personally.

(21,646 posts)Privilege perceived as in danger , be it their money or skin color
Too many like that will however keep up with all the bullshit lies of thier leaders and media outlets will try to con the low IQ into anger against Biden if they can too, and have in the past .
Big lies accepted for their own small world of greed and racism, they will play along with the lies that hook the stupid to join them
They dont care about the country as a whole like Biden's view
The greedy do not want to pay a dime or pay any Corp tax yet want to use bridges streetlights municipal water systems the FAA to land their planes
and demand police and fire depts do their job etc
Trump was their guy
Trump checked all the boxes heck he even cut agencies that would have been beneficial in the pandemic & they still see nothing wrong with that, even now
