I personally believe it has to do with the fact that secular morality ("diversity," etc.) now influences Christian morality, instead of the other way around

Some Christians I know are zealously defensive about issues that are clearly anti-Christian (homosexuality, etc.)

Most churches are definitely closer to the secular progressivism of today than the values of Christendom for its first 1,000 years

You'd be pleasantly surprised though, I've heard that many young priests in Catholic seminary are very, VERY right-wing, and they are quietly infiltrating

My mom refers to Christians who oppose gay marriage as bigots and extremists. Her views have nothing to do with what the Bible says. She literally just ignores everything outside of the gospels and attacks those who don't

Totally agreed, I've seen that alot. I actually tried infiltrating a Communist Christian Bible Study, didn't work out too tell tbh

I couldn't stand them, so I left before I caused too much chaos lol

I went to a DSA meeting once. They acknowledged that Cubans and Vietnamese were the most conservative minorities but couldn't make the connection that people who experience their policies hate them

It's definitely mob mentality. One thing I DO like about the "divide" in America in recent years is that it is peeling back the truth and revealing people for what they truly are. It's very clearly that most left-wingers are literal communists in disguise

they don't even hide it anymore

I'll tell you one thing about these modern communists. Not one looked like they'd ever done manual labor. The driving force is cultural Marxism. Economic Marxism is something only added on by those with no real power. Interestingly, the proletariat rejects both and likes policies closer to 3rd position so long as you don't tell them it's fascism

I've noticed that too tbh. I know the horseshoe theory (the left are the REAL nazis) is made fun of, but there is a small grain of truth to it. I think MOST people have a viewpoint on politics that is definitely not in line with either political party

And I think people, when honestly asked, tend to reject both corporatism and degeneracy

Other than lolbertarians and the establishment, nobody loves corporations. Tucker Carlson is the future if conservatives want to have one

The left is anti-white above all else, so they'll tolerate corporations so long as they enforce the right social agenda. They're losing control of their base though

The kind of policies that a lot of communists advocate for are really unsustainable when you have to gain the support of the working class

The actual Soviet Union banned porn, was pretty anti-gay, trannies probably would have been unthinkable, and had closed borders

It's hilarious to see these lefties glorify it

Oh and open borders screw up any socialistic system, so if they want it to even remotely function, they'll close them

Probably part of the reason why the more hardline internationalists like Trotsky got purged when the communists got any real power

Modern leftists would go to the gulag. Of course, their version of communism was brought to the US by Jewish intellectuals who were more Trotskite and not Stalinist

well... also it was somewhat within the Soviet Union's interest to promote this kind of stuff in the US as a form of subversion

Interesting how they had closed borders at home, but all their buddies in the US supported open borders. Rly makes you think 🤔

It's also interesting how both the far right and the far left have people in their ranks that would immediately get cracked down on if any real far left or far right government took power

If the far left took over a country, Antifa would get gulag'ed, and if the far right took over, guys like NSM or Azov probably wouldn't have it too nice

Fringes of politics attract particular types of people, namely disaffected young men.

For many, it's less about some carefully thought out ideology and more just fighting "the system" which they blame (fairly or not) for their position in life. Luckily, we have well adjusted people too because our ideas are correct, but vetting the wignats is crucial

I think there's two reasons we get weird people. One is that since diversity is bad for social cohesion, the most affected people will be socially awkward people, so we're always going to get a disproportionate amount of socially awkward people, and the other is just that people who have nothing to lose are more likely to support fringe ideologies publicly.

@Trashboat no, Bryden didn't get our roster. He's just trying to rile people up.

@Wood-Ape - OK/MN

Yo how do I get added to the fitness server

@Will - MD can get you in

the new AG might be /ourguy/ after all

Will someone add me to the fitness serve? @Will - MD

We are hoping to get a cable system after Henry is born

There's also a few hiking groups here and one specifically for moms

That's good news from the FBI. People don't realize how little law enforcement wants to be involved in politics. If people are a criminal threat, they'll take notice. Otherwise they have other things to deal with.

Cold morning in Utah!
