right wing rhetorical brainwashing has made them internalize every single mindset that isn't "every man for himself" as communism. they don't even know what "communism" means, and they don't need to. their puppetmasters don't want them to know. all they need to know is that it's anti-america and it needs to be eradicated from the earth
These leftists are so anti-Christian for wanting to… checks notes… “love your neighbor as yourself.” Never heard such anti-Jesus teachings in my life.

Some people still think evangelicals are christians apparently.
what has millennia of the "no true christian!!!" arguing accomplished?
if someone calls themself a "christian" then that's what they are, and they're using the same stone age book of tall tales to argue why they're the only true christians
fuck religion altogether, i say
If someone tells everyone he knows he is a man, he is a man even if he doesn't seem like a man sometimes. Same with Christians. It is really annoying when they don't seem to follow many Christian teachings but they are still Christian. IMO anyway.
I mean, not much, but rejecting the teachings of Jesus is still literally heresy. If we are to have a useful definition of the word "Christian," it kinda has to include believing in the word of Christ.
lol according to whom? "true" chrsitians? the ones who are the self-proclaimed "authority" on what that means, and what anything jesus supposedly said means?
nope. "christian" is literally anyone who calls themself christian
No, seriously, there's been a shift in the way the people use the word evangelical. I'll have to dig it up, but I saw a street interview recently where a reporter person is interrogating a man identifying as an evangelical who when prodded on the teachings of Jesus responded with "I don’t believe in all that Jesus stuff, I'm an atheist". Apparently a lot of people are identifying as evangelicals as a political identity, not as a religious identity. Evangelicals literally are no longer Christians anymore.
an evangelical what then?
Republican, in the end
TIL
i guess i shouldn't be surprised that right-wingers have yet again redefined the human capacity for being paralyzingly stupid
There's the problem that "Evangelical" is too broad a category, there are churches that historically are considered Evangelical, but don't share in that anti-christian insanity.
Seems to me we're past that. The problem with the "fuck you, I've got mine" principle was the "I've got mine" bit, which requires holding something back from the ultra wealthy. If you can distill it down to a simple "fuck you", you've got yourself a much more low-maintenance philosophy. By turning human suffering into a desired commodity, you can appease your voter base without giving them anything of value.
