      Never for even a millisecond buy the lie that they don’t see the absurdity in their reasoning.

    Cool cool cool so this dude is unable to comprehend how one can have morality or ethics without an imaginary friend who is constantly threatening to torment them for all of eternity and thus is actively hostile to me as a person because I don’t believe his imaginary friend exists in the first place.

      The imaginary friend also tells people to murder their kids and shit “as a test” to prove their faith. This guy said he heard voices telling him to kill people, so if their god is real I more suspect he’s the cause of this, not the solution.

    Pretty standard Republican beliefs. What I always find odd is their incredibly romanticized, rosy view of the past - apparently back in the Good Ol’ Days, there was no murder, rape, physical or sexual abuse, wars, lying, stealing or horrific institutions like slavery (I assume he’d say it was actually a good thing) because Americans at all times revered the Lord, so of course they didn’t do any of that.

      Looking at election results, the vast majority of Republican voters live in rural or at least suburban areas. Those feature both low population densities and isolation. This can make the crime rate in instances of violent crime per year low compared to an urban area with the same crime rate per capita. It also means that when someone does her killed, The average distance in feet (or miles) from the crime scene to your house is larger. This can affect perception of crime a lot

    The school shootings weren’t a problem until after we started putting In God We Trust all over our money.

    Can we just disolve as a nation already? Start an auction state by state to different countries?

    Clearly we cannot manage the simple act of self governance. The experiment is over and we failed.

    This was the plan from the Maga house members from the start. Suck Mccarthy so hard he agrees to a one member vote for ouster. Vote him out months later. Then put in your Maga cuck.

    He does everything wrong. As a house speaker, it’s not his job to bolt out his beliefs. As a christ, it is not his role to judge.
