Rounding up random brown people, including American citizens and sending them overseas to prison camps?

That's fine.

Raping children for decades?

Perfectly cool.

Cringey blasphemy?

HE CROSSED THE LINE

The mental illness will continue until the empire collapses.

[-] notwhoyouthink@lemmy.zip 19 points 1 month ago

True product of America imo

[-] ImgurRefugee114@reddthat.com 34 points 1 month ago

It's not even the first blasphemy... There's been so much talk and memes from evangelicals basically making him out to be a messiah and he's totally embraced it over and over again.

Wait, is he raising Jeffrey Epstein from the dead?

Flood the airwaves with it as if it were the original. No one will check anyway.

Do we know if the anti-Christ is aware they are the anti-Christ? Because it seems like trump just accidentally stumbled into embodying that concept so perfectly just by being his normal piece of shit self.

[-] Kwiila@slrpnk.net 12 points 1 month ago

No, the idea of the antichrist knowing is a supposition of them being a servant of the beast. A cultural assumption of Satan's "human servants" having first hand communication like one does with a human boss.

Inasmuch as I could play with the idea of believing in revelations, I would believe that it's less about a "chosen one" antichrist, and moreso an "antichrist candidate" that when someone can fulfill the roll and obtain power; then it's a sign of times incoming. Also, (lego) Brick Bible Revelations is a fascinating interpretation.

It'd be reeeeaally funny if Trump got smote for blasphemy.

If he falls over of a heartattack in the next day my needle may shift from atheist to agnostic.

I'd rather they burned themselves

They'll keep voting republican

It's a part of their identity

It's how they compensate for not having real personalities

[-] crusa187@lemmy.ml 32 points 1 month ago

What a bunch of pathetic rubes. These people view politics as a team sport, and have collectively sensed that the tide is turning on the Trump regime (in no small part due to the same realization made by those like Tucker Carlson and Theo Vaughn, others within their purview). This is just an excuse for them to act out that realization. There is no moral conviction in these people whatsoever.

We need to convince them that winning looks like the green new deal and mass unionization across all labor sectors.

[-] pennomi@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

This is what happens when you refuse to think for yourself and just rely on a TV personality to tell you what to believe.

Religion in general has conditioned Americans to operate this way.

Oh so THAT was the line too far? Jesus. Fucking. Christ.

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

It's not even a line too far.

They absolutely 100% would vote for him again.

[-] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 month ago

These are the believers who stayed with the church after its own child rape scandal.

They're just looking for an off-ramp as everything implodes as a result of their actions

[-] ShellMonkey@piefed.socdojo.com 23 points 1 month ago

And the self serving cunt will skate away yet again because so many people are scared, of changes, of people who don't look like them, of being told that they had it wrong, that they'll lose their little piece of the whatever they have...

[-] leadore@lemmy.world 23 points 1 month ago

Another clip making the rounds on X featured a MAGA hat ablaze on a barbecue grill.

They're eating the hats ...

Don't believe these kinds of articles. Anyone who voted for Trump the second time already knew what they were getting.

Trump's base is unquestionably faithful and you still need to be vigilant against them because they aren't going anywhere until Trump dies.

And probably buying new hats.

[-] Furbag@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago

Someday everyone will claim to have always opposed him.

[-] NauticalNoodle@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 month ago

they should be forced to keep those hats glued to their heads.

That's going to last all of 20 minutes, then they'll be licking his wrinkly little raisins like good stooges.

[-] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 10 points 1 month ago

I literally don't believe this happened.

That'll be the day.

Is this satire?

Also, I thought MAGA's official stance on the Pope was that Catholicism was "woke" now lol

[-] TheReturnOfPEB@reddthat.com 9 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Trump will try to move the head of the church to the USA.

Trump wants a holy american empire.

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.

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

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.
