it's really funny to me that there's one group of christians spending a shit load of money on PR campaigns instead of the poor just for the christians they're trying to say they're not like to disown them, and go "nuh uh, we're christians and we stand by all the fascist shit"

Surprise surprise, the group behind the ad is shitty

American Jesus is a very real phenomenon.

These people think Jesus is America, in that he's the force behind the genocidal army of the USA and it's allies, the fuel of the alt right and the Republican party, the motive and the conscience of the murderer due to how evangelicals think forgiveness of sin works, but still somehow kind hearted and charitable despite all this. Just like how they perceive the US as the ultimate force of good in the world despite all the things the US has done. Jesus is merely a state symbol, a founding farther of the USA alongside George Washington, if not the idea of America itself.

Anything that portrays Jesus outside of this image is considered incorrect and satanic.

It's actually quite sad how religion has been reduced to this in the USA and in the evangelical movement

GIVE ME SUPPLY SIDE JESUS

i tracked down the commercial, and i think it's pretty inoffensive across the board. though i get how people who want christianity to be the cudgel they use to punish out-groups wouldn't like it.

the weirdest part about it, aesthetically, was playing a cover of the INXS ballad originally written and performed by a guy that died from autoerotic asphyxiation.

Wait until they find out Jesus carried water

Jesus was a blue-eyed, blonde, american man who was born from two guns having sex with each other and trump is his descendant!

did they really skimp on artists and use generative AI for their expensive super bowl ad
