I'm not even saying I dislike alt-right people or their beliefs.

Me either 🤷🏻

But it is an attempt to avoid saying Christians.

That's exactly what it is.

There is no other purpose to it than that. Again, they DO NOT worship Easter.

They celebrate it. They worship Christ.

I'd argue that they were highlighting the activity engaged in when attacked

Hell, it's simpler to just say 'Christians'

it's actually because these people conceptually don't consider christians to be a class who can be under attack

Exactly. Why not just say "Christians".

so they have to replace it with another term

Or better yet, "Christians celebrating Easter".

Because that fucks with the victim narrative

Boom, 100% accurate description.

I cannot accept a simple slip of words as some damn conspiracy

They're not Christians, they're just random people, on a particular day

It's not a slip you dumbass.

@EnderOctanus Multiple people used the same term

@Grodd

They specify the holiday

people who happened to be in catholic churches on easter

You think headlines are just shat out like Twitter phrases?

i mean you know it means christians, right

@EnderOctanus easier to say a church bombed on easter

what's wrong with saying it that way

I have never seen a Jew in a church knelt down on Easter.

ffs

Alright, quit picking on the autist

People are looking to be mad

And its dumb

@EnderOctanus so if christians are the only ones in church on easter
why not just say christians

Dumber when we do if because we know better.

I think that those in worship are very sympathetic as victims, something anyone that does politics or news is aware of and uses to their advantage.

To me it seemed they were framing it as people knelt by an altar getting targetted

Which is much more provoking

and likewise, why would these people never refer to muslims as "people who happened to be worshipping in a mosque"

or, mosque worshippers

Ramadan worshippers

Yeah sorry that's retarded

I just gave my interpretation for you. I feel it makes absolute sense.

No one with a brain says Ramadan worshippers
