For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
The video, which includes a prayer for Trump
Fucking excuse me?
This has been their MO for years. A good documentary called "Jesus Camp" was made in like 04. It was about a children's religious summer camp. It ended with a bunch of children praying to a literal life sized cardboard cut out of W Bush. Those kids are like 30 now and likely have their own kids. They're just so fucking weird.
If memory serves right and nothing changed the kid with a mullet came out kinda OK.
Just like in north Korea...
Must be a typo. That should say "to Trump".
And now it goes to SCOTUS and SCOTUS declares this a Christian country and then all kids will be mandated to pray in school.
America is swirling around the bowl and heading down the pipe fast.
It won't go to SCOTUS because the AG would have to defend it for it to go anywhere.
requiring schools to show a video announcing a new Department of Religious Freedom and Patriotism.
The video, which includes a prayer for Trump,
Every day there’s something.
And we wonder why our young men are so lost... Indoctrinating kids in public schools. Fuck this fucking country.
His kind of rhetoric requires immersion. The citizens need to be surrounded by as much as possible. It's only believable if you hear it so much it almost loses meaning. That's the only way it's gonna work which is why it's happening.
500 bibles for $25,000? That's $50 per Bible that were 100% made in China for about $3 each. Someone report this to DOGE!
Those bibles probably cost less than $0.50 to make.
And to be clear, the guy pushing this directive is possibly getting tapped to run the Department of Education. I am so fucking glad I didn't/won't have children. Sorry parents who voted against this.
Department of Religious Freedom and Patriotism
Jesus fucking Christ. I don’t know where to start.
Start with the acronym. DrFAP.
Always remember, and never forget... it's a cult.
The only difference between a cult and a religion is widespread acceptance.
If you are curious about the stupid video, this is it. I reported it for misinformation.
This video is bizarre. There’s a ton of static noise, there’s computer clicking, and it stops before he even finishes the prayer! I thought this was a screen grab with a live mic but then I saw that it was posted by the OK DOE.
Same
These stupid fucks hollering about wokeism and then ushering in the bible. I hope people see through this.
Spoiler! >!We will not.!<
Unfortunately, the collateral damage is the education and future of these kids. And ultimately, our own future, as entire generations of uneducated, misguided people (let's be real, in this situation: men) grow up and begin running the world.
Please fight hard. Please win hard.
Brother thisi is going faster off the rails than I could've ever imagined lmao.
Yet.
I'm waiting for the new federal Morality Police Force to be announced.
