I think we have a little too much religion already.
Fuck your feelings. Science. Facts. Pay me. Human rights. Healthcare.
Handmaid’s Tale is actually happening.
I’m sure all those non-religious republicans are super stoked about this. But hey, literally everyone warned them and they didn’t wanna listen.
who are these non-religious republicans? i’m sure they exist, but i’ve never, not once, met them or heard from them
They are more numerous than you realise. I’d say about half the people that I grew up with when I lived in a red county were non-religious republicans. And you’d think that wouldn’t make any sense until you realise that actual republican voters that care about actual republican values don’t really give two shits about all that religious stuff. It’s just that the extremists are louder and, unsurprisingly, more preachy.
They exist in significant numbers. Think incels, weebs, tech-bro wannabes, stoner rednecks, suburbanites with money and kinks… there’s quite a lot of types for whom MAGA is anti-establishment.
well that’ll be a straight-up “no way, not happening. fuck you.” from me.
I wonder how they think this is going to help religion’s image in this country. It was already trending downwards fast. This seems likely to ensure no one likes them.
