So when Democrats say Easter worshippers in regards to Sri Lanka who exactly are they referring to? Pretty sure Easter is a Pagan holiday, no matter how much Christians try to make it about Christ.

Pretty sure the vast majority of people who celebrate Easter are Christians. That's like saying beer is culturally associated with Iraqis because that's where it was first developed

the hell is a christian?

okay so why is the #inpeachrepublictions trending on twitter? I have read the Muller report and didnt see anything out of the norm. I'm a little confused

because party line

Oh you silly, thinking something like the text of the Mueller report is going to test their faith that Trump is a Russian puppet.

Diverging populism?

Fuck that 'east worshippers' shit; can't stand that bullshit

i actually dont understand it at all, what are the ramifications for saying christian?

like is the democratic base offended by using that term?

They are probably afraid muslims will be.

Either that, or the democrat base is made up of even more edgy teenage athiests than I realized.

Any collective that's been culturally "dominant" in recent human history is bad and doesn't deserve sympathy in their eyes, I guess. Whites, men, Christians, etc

okay

that just opens up a myriad of more questions but I think i grasp the concept

thank you fellow discord user

It's the best explanation I've got, and I don't even fully understand it

If I wanted to analyse this in good faith, "Easter worshippers" sounds like it's trying to be *inclusive* and mean "all the folks taking part in Easter festivities", but it seems to me like a clearly Christian-focused holiday and the attack therefore seems to be targeting Christians and that's how I'd report it.

just incase their were some pagans killed?

celebrating a festival of fertility

That, or anyone who might happen to be non-christian and is spending the holiday with their Christian family/friends. Even if I assume that much, it seems awfully pedantic and ignores the core of the issue

i found it (((coincidental))) that obama and hilldawg used the same term

Clearly everyone got the same memo

andy yang and beto had some testicles

good for them

There have been several instances when it seemed a similar memo was sent to several democrats. So maybe they all employ the same social media manager.

My favorite comment on that tweet: “If they [the Democrats] use that word [Christian] they will turn to pillars of salt”

Lol

Yeah, this incident convinced me they're all being fed lines by the same person

My point was that Easter isn't really worshipped by Christian's. Sure Easter has been co-opted to worship Christ, but it's not actually Easter worshipping.

Well. Easter is exclusively the Christian holiday

That doesn’t mean pagans didn’t also have some fertility festival at the same time

Is anyone really surprised that a group as authoritarian as Democrats are all taking orders from the same place?

There are carry overs though. The bunny and eggs are carry overs from pagans.

Hey it’s another excuse to eat candy

I’m okay with the carry over

Pants were also from pagans

Lol

Either way even if Easter is a Christian holiday the term Easter Worshiper is technically an incorrect definition.
