Man... Seriously! Fuck this guy. I hope when the Epstein files finally get released he fucking burns

He led an insurrection on live TV, got away with it, and got reelected. Nothing is going to happen until the propaganda machine is torn down; or, more likely, the whole system just caves in on itself under the weight of its own greed and mismanagement.

I’d say the evangelical base won’t appreciate sex with teens but… given their track record they’ll probably say well actually sex with teens is just a-ok with us now

Christians are decrying Jesus Christ as "too woke" now. All bets are off

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 8 points 6 days ago (1 children)

At that point you can't even call yourself a Christian

And yet they will continue to do so

God will judge them

Matthew 7:21-23

[21] “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. [22] On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ [23] And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’

God does not exist, and will not be judging anyone

Yahweh is a sadist. Of the possible deities to worship Jeebus' dad is the worst.

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 0 points 5 days ago

Jesus is Yahweh, and punishing sin isn't sadism.

They're already priming this pump with Megyn Kelly questioning "well if the kids had started puberty, was it really pedophilia". There's a shocking amount that are also being led either to "well what if the child consents" and the more common "children shouldn't have any rights at all so it's effectively a property crime".

They're already influencing the idea with Megan Kelly. It's amazing to me how they've moved the goalposts so far that the general populace are now becoming apologists for so many things they once vehemently condemned. I'm not talking politicians who are projecting. I'm talking regular folks that are allowing outside influence to convince them that abuse is ok. I was raised by bigots. I was taught inequality and mistrust as a child. Thankfully it was never outright hatred, but it could have easily gone there. But pedophilia, that was the vilest of vile, the atrocity that could not stand. Now those same family members would be of the group to most likely defend this, were they alive today.

I'd have said the Evangelical base wouldn't appreciate him having sex with porn stars either, but here we are

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 3 points 6 days ago

Or the groping, adultery, several divorces and remarriage, platforming kenneth copeland or flip flopping between being pro and anti abortion. Or him preaching works-based salvation recently.

[–] Enkrod@feddit.org 4 points 6 days ago

They've started to distinguish between pedophiles and ephebophiles, just so they can continue to say that Trump isn't a pedo.
