They’re taking away food stamps in Jesus’ name to bail out libertarianism in Argentina Jesus said the rich should give the poor everything they had And if he’s been watching them use his name to take everything from the poor for the past 2,000 years then I’m sure he did the best he could have done

He didn’t love his own kids either

Child abuse is a sincere Christian religious belief Even the Bible says to keep domestic abuse inside the church It says keep the church out of court It says spank your kids as much as you need to When the whole religion is about a virgin giving birth then we probably shouldn’t be too surprised

A little while ago a medium level racist was murdered The murderer said he was tired of all the hate In response, racists blamed non-racists for inciting the murder & said they were the real racists And now we know the man who was killed was LESS RACIST on average than his fans

Young republicans have been told all their lives by their pastors in church that N*zis were trans people and trans people are N*zis Then they go to college & inevitably learn the N*zis were extremely opposed to trans people At this point, they will either become liberal, or they will become N*zi

If you think God made Adam and Eve but not Adam and Steve, and you think whoever has any other religion than yours deserves a fate worse than death, then you are going to erase trans people from your culture Because you are going to erase anyone from your culture that doesn’t confirm your worldview

A lot of men in the US are feeling anxious because most of the young women want nothing to do with them These men believe women having options is the downfall of civilization But actually the downfall of civilization is if those men reproduce

Only one man was helped by this photo op and you can see he knows he’s the only one

I believe US liberals can accept some responsibility for the sad state of our politics But who can we blame for the fact that young conservatives are extremely racist? We cannot blame ourselves for that We cannot even blame their parents We can only blame the individual racists themselves

The populated part of Alaska was devastated by a hurricane & FEMA isn’t responding It’s a little bit of a Balto situation which is what FEMA is for but they’re not responding Their elected leadership can afford to airlift supplies across the globe but cannot afford to admit climate change is real

Artificial unintelligence Explains a lot about science and government Explains everything about business and religion

Today, Republicans gave us (again) their definition of locker room talk That is, they told us (again) who they really are Believe them

Young Republicans say they’re ready to watch people burn now Maybe they are sincere Christian believers who really believe in hell Or maybe they were excited for the Rapture and they just missed it

There’s a movement among women to do without men This is nothing new But it is newly ascendant If any man takes it personally, he probably hasn’t read Greek literature

Picture King Richard Picture King Henry Picture King James Picture them demanding peace prizes for their accomplishments in colonization

If they had put Autism in the Tylenol 50 years ago that might have actually saved the world

We thought lead was bad enough to take out of gasoline but the gasoline itself is causing ALS

If any Democratic president had done anything like this they would have been impeached in the House and convicted in the Senate the very same weekend and removed from office by Monday

You want to know what it’s like in ICE It’s cold It’s toxic It’s people who grew up in poverty It’s people who can’t get a job anywhere else It’s a lot of immigrants youtu.be/_kTu9bDBJxM?...

All those times my dad told me I’d be a conservative when I grew up suddenly make sense

It turns out Clovis culture never died, it only moved South due to climate change I love this because when I was growing up a Christian creationist, any irrefutable fact about indigenous people could transfix my beliefs like a spear thrown by someone who made it themselves youtu.be/WHXXnV1Ltbk?...

I’m sure the threats of no back pay for government workers will keep them from using their sick days

The biggest difference between the Russo-Ukrainian War and the US Civil War is, the US Civil War was a slave state trying to get away from a free country, and the Russo-Ukrainian War is a free country trying to get away from a slave state You have to choose a side or it will be chosen for you

Choke Oh King, a jaunty tune from 1580 youtu.be/ZpFGT9k2VoU?...

The cabals are coming from inside the church

Newsom is not doing anything crazy, stupid, revolutionary or even difficult He’s doing the same basic thing that every reporter, politician and public intellectual from ABC to South Park Studios should have been doing since 2015

A confidence man whose apostles ran away with his legacy is hardly an obsolete paradigm It happened less than 200 years ago right here in America with Joseph Smith and Brigham Young @richardcarrier.info @godlessgranny.bsky.social

It has been less than 30 years since the disaster at Chernobyl and it has been reclaimed by wolves The wolves are more numerous than they’ve been for 300 years They’re bigger than they’ve been for 3,000 years Of course they’re evolving cancer resistance That’s easier in dog years

School districts across the US are ordering Christian nationalist Bible-based lesson plans It’s like these parents who want their kids to read the Bible have never read it themselves If only they’d read it every night together as a family like mine did their kids would already be atheists by now

Robert Green Ingersoll on the necessity of feminism and the myth of great men Featuring Rosalind Franklin, co-discoverer of DNA Crick and Watson credited her in their writings but she was overlooked for the Nobel Prize Call her Trinity

Robert Green Ingersoll on Pope Leo XIII Leo was one of the longest-serving prelates in Church history He burnished the Church’s intellectual heritage and led it into modernity He is remembered as a champion of the working class, and no wonder, when we see the criticism he attracted at the time

When Robert Ingersoll was born scientists had to explain that their work did not contradict the Bible When he died pastors had to explain that their work did not contradict science Pastors worked hard for the next 100 years Today, more people than ever trust their pastor over scientific consensus

My grandfather was a closeted gay man just like the Speaker who used misogyny as a tool to flirt with straight men and manipulate them Which begs a question, who is a bigger hypocrite, the Speaker, or the straight men who believed him?

Every policy of dump in his second term has been in some way to bring slavery back And no one who got a history book removed from a high school will be able to see it coming

About 10% of the Psalms are imprecatory That is, they wish for vengeance on others These psychopathic poems are self-fulfilling prophecies of religious civil war & will be as long as people believe in them And whoever wants to go to heaven while others are in hell will believe to the bitter end

The Baby Boomers and Gen Xers used to say they worked 50+ hours a week so they’d have time for an affair Millennials work those hours so we’ll have job security That’s what we grew up thinking was the deal Because capitalism only works if you have people willing or ignorant enough to be exploited

You can’t use a painting of Adam and Eve on the internet anymore Christian nationalists have succeeded, through the brainwashing effects of their culture war, in censoring historical nudity in art in left-wing public spaces without even lifting a finger to burn or delete anything themselves

Nero fiddled while Rome burned And if only he’d been a Christian, they would’ve pretended he put the fire out himself If he’d become a Christian as a result of the tragedy they would’ve said it was a gift from God He could’ve shot someone on Fifth Avenue without losing support

Robert Green Ingersoll on abortion He belonged to the first generation who understood the origin of species He understood right away, evolution only moves forward as long as women are able to choose their mates, change their minds, and plan their parenthood Otherwise we evolve back to savagery

People voted for dump because they thought the government was conspiring to hide things from the people and these people had no idea how much data the government was already providing for free and they don’t want to know the government they elected is selling their data in a secret auction

Whenever someone sends you any deepfake AI video, the correct response is a bill, for, say, 25 cents or more, for sending you fake content to waste your time

Catholics have a pope; Protestants laugh at him And yet the Pope is capable of intellectual advancement The Protestants have a book for their pope Century by century, the book remains as ignorant as ever It is only made better by its readers giving the words better meanings than the authors did

You know he blamed drag queens

Republicans have been groomed for decades to believe good things happen when the government is shut down and until Republican base voters are completely disabused of that belief it is going to keep happening like clockwork

Did you know President Garfield was a pastor? Did you know he was unalived by another pastor? He survived almost 3 months while people prayed for him to recover but miraculously he did not Until today I did not know this additional context about his murderer But I think you should too

It’s really important that dump acknowledged p 25 today

Child abusers become Christian nationalists and groom kids for Christian nationalism in order to take advantage of them Then they blame trans people for their very own child abuse That’s been their move now for about 100 years although the element of blood libel is much older

It’s unfortunate for Dump and Kegsbreath that they’ve furnished undeniable, irrefutable evidence to every US citizen that every last general in the military is loyal to the constitution rather than to the president personally

Generals became atheists yesterday

When Hegsbreath said we’re bringing hazing back, let’s all understand what that means He wants men in positions of power to abuse those in their power and he wants abuse of power to be a rite of passage That’s what hazing is, that’s all it is, all it ever was, and that’s what he meant by it
