I see the author has never met anyone from the Christian right.

There is no hate like Christian “love”.

It's why them calling themselves Christian is a joke.

I'm an atheist, but was raised Christian, and unlike most of them, actually read their rulebook. If Jesus Christ of the New Testament existed, no one in the "Christian" right would be welcome in his house. It's not even about no true Scottsman, they don't try but fall short of their self-professed Lord's word. They literally, enthusiastically play opposite day with their self-identified Lord's word every single day and call it piety.

The Bible to them is nothing but a prop, thumping the book they don't read as they see it is literally just a means to be morally "on base," knowing themselves to be morally superior while having license to support any inhumanty, solely by virtue of holding that book they don't read, because they choose to willfully ignore any intrinsic sense of morality in favor of hatred and schaudenfreude they've been conditioned to need through for profit media and for profit prosperity gospel confidence scams.

Pathetic zombies, most of whom are beyond any hope of deprogramming, as they've darkly poetically developed a taste for human blood.

Would all not be welcome? Isn't that supposed to be your point about their condescending gatekeeping?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
