I hope everyone here is aware that fascism has now taken hold in America and never before in the history of mankind has fascism stepped down when politely asked to do so.

It has always required force.

Except after the death of Franco. And after a peaceful people's movements removed the Portuguese junta.

[-] ballgoat@lemmy.zip 13 points 3 days ago

Stopping these terrorists with force is a moral necessity if no other way exists.

If there is some god... I hope hell is a place reserved for this people...

before their own painfull death... I hope they suffer, they have to watch all their beloved people, siblings and offspring die horrible painfull deaths and everyone they hold dear suffer, suffer and suffer... until they die as the oldest humans in ages, bound in a catatonic state for decades and I will gleefully keep the machines running that keep them alive!

And people wonder why I despise all religious institutions, no matter the flavour of their business selling people an empty shell they named hope.

They're all a bunch of f-----, that want to walk around, come on our streets, and demand our children. And we should look them in the eye and say, 'No, you're not going to have our children!'

Statistically, a child is at greater risk of being sexually abused by a preacher than a member of the LGBT community

[-] Wolf@lemmy.today 12 points 3 days ago

That's what he means. He wants them pure for when he SA's them.

[-] Fedizen@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago

Religion is incompatible with civilised life.

[-] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 22 points 3 days ago

Religion is an endemic mental illness. I'd say people should keep it to themselves and once they leave their house, I don't want to hear anything about it, or it's off to the mental institution.

When asked to respond to Falco's inflammatory remarks, the church said in a statement that the preacher was "only calling for the death penalty and suicide for the actual sodomites (homosexuals). The Bible teaches that those people are worthy of death. They are supposed to be executed by the government. We are not to take the law into our own hands."

This is the "reserved" and "compromise" position in their eyes.

[-] flandish@lemmy.world 115 points 4 days ago

reminder: these fascists assholes are not human. they give up all humanity when they actively choose to become or remain within this trump nazi cult. so when we say “nazis are not human” we are not dehumanizing them; they did it to themselves.

these fuckwits need prison. all of them.

[-] Nougat@fedia.io 87 points 4 days ago

Nah, they need to be executed. If it's legal for them to say gay people should be executed, it's legal for me to say they should be executed.

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 61 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

They are human. Hatred and cruelty is part of who we as humans are. The better among us are supposed to keep the monsters in check. We failed.

This isn’t a church. It is a PAC that is doing this. If you buy Chick Fil A they are whom you are supporting.

"The Bible teaches that those people are worthy of death. They are supposed to be executed by the government. We are not to take the law into our own hands."

Ah yes, Jesus was famously pro-death penalty as long as only the state was enforcing it.

[-] Hubi@feddit.org 112 points 4 days ago

Well yeah, Jesus had first hand experience in the state enforcing the death penalty.

[-] cygnus@lemmy.ca 65 points 4 days ago

Someone really should investigate that preacher because there is a near 100% chance he is a pedophile.

My supervisor is a lesbian who proudly introduces people to her wife, and she is as rabid a Trumper as I've ever met. I've tried to introduce her to the "Leopards Eating People's Faces Party" concept but she doesn't understand the point. She has somehow concluded that it is Republicans who have fought for and won gay rights (like the right to marry that she's a beneficiary of) while Democrats want to take those rights away. I don't have any idea how somebody gets to a mental state like that - I can't accuse her of drinking the Kool-Aid because no Republican media says anything like that.

She really hates black people so her basic conservative stance is at least understandable. Except that she talks loudly about how she wants to bang the black guy that delivers our water bottles.

[-] Cosmonauticus@lemmy.world 34 points 3 days ago

Simplify it. She's just a dumb racist bitch

Child rapists: kill the gays! They hurt children!

[-] shininghero@pawb.social 16 points 3 days ago

Heresy. Full stop. Do not pass go, do not collect $200. That church is run by heretics, and needs to be called out as such.

The red letter texts of Jesus' own teachings take precedent over any conflicting verses, and those teachings say to love thy neighbor as you would yourself.

I seriously hope that church has a nice big flat wall for someone to graffiti.

[-] TuffNutzes@lemmy.world 26 points 3 days ago

There's no love like an Evangelical Christian fatwa. It's what Jesus would do, amirite?

these people quote whatever the fuck pleases them today.

the bible literally says to feed the poor and house the homeless and these fucks don't mention it with a word

it's literally just a way to manipulate lots of people in whatever way the rulers prefer

In a sermon titled, "Pray the Gay Away," Stephen Falco, an evangelical preacher with the Sure Foundation Baptist Church, yelled from the pulpit, "They're all a bunch of f-----, that want to walk around, come on our streets, and demand our children. And we should look them in the eye and say, 'No, you're not going to have our children!'"

What a disgusting message. I wouldn’t be sad if this sack of shit got hit by a bus.

[-] Assassassin@lemmy.world 50 points 4 days ago

As the Bible states, "be the bus you wish to see in the world"

Why single out gays? It also says to kill adulterers, stubborn children, women who aren't virgins when they marry, people who work on the Sabbath, and mediums who talk to the dead.

[-] LadyButterfly@reddthat.com 34 points 3 days ago

It also says when a woman has her period she should take 2 pigeons and burn them as sacrifice. Which I do every month OBVIOUSLY

Normal people don't look at others and think "they want our children [sexually]." 🤮 I'm unaware of any proof that LGBTQ+ folks prey on kids at higher rates than cishet predators. They need to check this guy's computer and keep him away from children...

Remove their tax-exempt status. The distinct separation of church and state should prevent this murderous group of sycophants from tax-free status.

Did Jesus ever say a single word about LGBTQIA+ issues ever?

The video from "The Playground" darknet site shows Evangelical churches are heavily involved in the child sex slavery trade.

As a trans army veteran, this shit is so infuriating and exhausting to me it’s almost fucking surreal.

We have pedophilic draft dodgers running our government into the ground, anti-social robber barons throwing gasoline on the cultural firestorm with social media algorithms, ICE agents disappearing asylum seekers to be tortured in foreign lands without due process, speakers and representatives bringing nothing but bullshit excuses or outright lies to the table, which of course has our country’s reputation stewing in a trailer park septic tank…

… Meanwhile these insane religious sects are ignoring all of that and hyperfixating on queer people accusing US of pedophilia and calling for our deaths… while they themselves are participating in pedophile rings that often slaughter children once they age out of being attractive to kiddy fuckers.

What kind of “society” are we trying to make here exactly?

At some point the people with empathy have to do violence on the people without.

We outnumber them. Don’t base it on online. Base it on in person. Online is OVERRUN with bots and trolls. It’s not fucking real. It’s a big fucking lie to scare you into giving up.

Don’t.

This is something that will eventually Happen. It is already is happening “underground” they just use loopholes to get people killed. Look at the king of hill guy. That’s not just a one off thing. It’s social manipulation. It’s not just happening to them. They know what they are doing. We are already in a social psychological civil war, and it’s not random crazies… it’s people manipulated to go crazy, whether it’s someone murdering, suicides, or pressure that makes someone commit crimes so they end up in prison. This is America.
