Ah yes, its right there in the Bible for anyone to read… Only it isn’t.
What do you mean? Texas clearly is the land promised!
They need to be careful playing trumpets while walking in circles, or their walls might fall down.
So they’re basically ISIS
Yeehaw-dists
Talibangelicals
Y’all Kaida
Al Shabubba.
Vanilla ISIS
Meal Team Six
Minivan Taliban.
Nah they love their trucks.
WhIteSIS
Gravy Seals
Lol, it always comes back to an intellectually deficient group of morons and their baseless deity.
Yes, the army of God here to (checks notes) be absolutely monstrous fuckheads to their neighbors, just as Jesus teaches…
“And the Lord said unto thee: fuck those brown skinned mofos, they don’t even pay taxes!”
I always find it ironic when religious people try to use race as a justification for their bigotry when Jesus was clearly of middle eastern descent.
It infuriates me beyond belief that I was one of the few individuals who actually read through the bible when I was forced to go to catholic school.
That and the absolutely abhorrent state of humanity really designates evidence that these books of all major religions are just the words of man to trick people into believing a god.
Malleable idiots are the easiest to control, after all. The inquisition proved this and every major violent engagement since has just been additional evidence.
one of the few individuals who actually read through the bible
What just dumbfounds me is that about every other year, my religious family start talking about how they’re going to do some group thing where they read through the entire bible. I know how that goes… Even while they’re reading through it all, they still cherry pick what they are going to talk about each week because there is just so many gosh dang words in there. Then they forget 60% of what they even talked about. Then they spew off as if they know everything ever about christianity while never having read any of the apologetics or philosophical underpinnings of even their creed, much less any other. It’s a symptom of the last few decades, I think, where we accept the barest minimum of understanding of a subject as being enough to confidently believe we are knowledgeable. Dunning-Kruger strikes again, I guess.
Trigger discipline is for lib’ruls - that guy probably
no time for such liberal nonsense, real men shoot the ceiling
well to be fair, there is no magazine in the gun
I watched a guy drop the magazine out of his EMP and then shot the couch because he didn’t rack it empty before he dropped the hammer. Every firearm is loaded unless the action is taken apart.
Rule #1: the gun is always loaded.
There’s so much fucking crazy in just the first two paragraphs of that article:
A trucker convoy of “patriots” is heading to the U.S. border with Mexico next week, as the standoff between Texas and the federal government intensifies. The organizers of the “Take Our Border Back” convoy have called themselves “God’s army” and say they’re on a mission to stand up against the “globalists” who they claim are conspiring to keep U.S. borders open and destroy the country.
“This is a biblical, monumental moment that’s been put together by God,” one convoy organizer said on a recent planning call. “We are besieged on all sides by dark forces of evil,” said another. “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the sons of God. It is time for the remnant to rise.” (The remnant, from the Book of Revelation, are the ones who remain faithful to Jesus Christ in times of crisis).
Fucking brain dead morons sacrificing their livelihoods for the party that is actively blocking any action on securing the border.
That’s the whole game, create problems and stop progress so you can claim that you are the only group capable of solving it. This is just an op to try and smear the Ds
Why on earth would “peacemakers” need the probably mobile armories those idiots are carrying?
It’s doublespeak, a la 1984. In this case many of the words used are inversions of their usual meaning.
I’ll provide some translations:
patriots -> seditionists
biblical -> cloaked in the authority of God – which here must be explicitly stated because their actions are opposed to any God of justice
open boarders -> following legal and ethical principles (remember, these people oppose ethical principles)
peacemakers -> those who use violence, or the threat of violence, to obstruct peace. See also, terrorists
besieged by dark forces of evil -> opposed by morality, ethics, or the law. The addition of “on all sides” changes the ‘or’ to ‘and’
As a bonus, “globalists” is antisemitism. There’s an old canard that justice for minorities = communism = Jewish conspiracy. This is particularly common among nazis. The convoy organizer is signaling that their group is accepting of these ideas
I read that as “besieged on all sides by dark…forces of evil,” narrowly avoiding saying dark people instead and losing all pretense.
The Hypocrisy is palpable. Where in Christ’s teachings does it say to use razor wire and allow women and Children to drown to protect your way of life?! These Chuds are as much antichrists as 45.
A lot of untreated mental health issues making themselves visible in those two paragraphs. If only their parents hugged them once in awhile when they were kids maybe they’d be productive members of society instead.
I’m a pagan so maybe I’m misinterpreting but I did read the Bible in catholic school and I’m pretty sure Jesus said to do the opposite of this. I’m pretty sure he’d be saying that we should see each family as though they were Jose, Maria, and their baby Jesus as no different than Yusef, Miriam, and Ieshiua 2000 years ago. I’m pretty certain that was in fact his entire point though he’d also be saying that single 20 year old men also should be welcomed because they’re either good or lost and able to be redeemed.
The thing is…what may Christians believe is based less on what Jesus said and more on what suit-wearing, vitriol-spewing grifters tell them.
“Protest Convoy” or “Anti-Immigrant Caravan”
Like in physics, this particle-antiparticle pair would annihilate.
Oops what happened to Ukraine and Palestine?
Every time
Who cares?? Need to protect our borders first!! Then we can worry about other borders!!
How many Texas/Mexico border hospitals have been bombed again?
Are you taling about all the fentanol getting in to the US?
Republicans saw the Taliban still in power after being fully occupied by the US for how long and decided “that’s who we’re going to model ourselves after”
A group of six patriot-world influencers, including Kim Yeater, who runs a self-empowerment self-help group and an anti-voter fraud group, started organizing the convoy around a month ago. “God’s army is rising up,” she said on the planning call. “We all have been chosen for this time.”
Religion influencing the state is anti-constitutional, blocking the freedom of others, blocking the state, and opposing equal rights, even for non-nationals, is anti-patriotism.
Feelings of patriotism are based on the positive values the country embraces—like freedom, justice, and equality. The patriot believes that both the system of government and the people of their country are inherently good and work together for a better quality of life.
In contrast, feelings of nationalism are based on a belief that one’s country is superior to all others. It also carries a connotation of distrust or disapproval of other countries, leading to the assumption that other countries are rivals. While patriots do not automatically denigrate other countries, nationalists do, sometimes to the point of calling for their country’s global dominance. Nationalism, through its protectionist beliefs, is the polar opposite of globalism.
While I don’t agree that nationalism necessarily perceives a superiority, it does prioritise the nation as always being number one, even at to cost of others.
This honestly feels like a Russian intelligence op. Not that these yokels are Russian spies, but that they’ve been duped by misinformation, spun up my Russian troll farms, and aimed at the southwest border.
They are dumb enough to do the rest on their own.
Russians are adding fuel to the fire, but they didn’t start it.
most this stuff comes out of nutters like Alex Jones that think they get secret info from god and profess to fighting a war with satan while they do coke every night.
It’s interesting because no one could believe Alex Jones or any of these greedy mega/maga church leaders if they came at it neutrally, they believe because they want to, because acting like they believe it benefits them.
But then such a cult gets built up you start getting true believes who are so caught up in the cult that they can’t think anything else. People feel the need to prove how much they belive so they join these crazy groups and movements, they love putting on a big show of being a warrior for the cause but of course they don’t want to actually mess up their life because then they wouldn’t need the excuse to be selfish… So they do meaningless things like go to protect the boarder knowing full well what everyone knows - it’s just some roads with gates there’s nothing interesting or even slightly dangerous there.
It was always burning, since the world’s been turning
“Useful idiots” was the KGB’s term.
100%
Oh all this s*** absolutely stinks of interference. They want to start riots. Half this f****** governors are probably on the Russian payroll.
Maybe. Or it’s just Trump and Abbot conspiring ahead of the 2024 election and a bunch of morons are swept up in the propaganda
For the uninformed, Here’s an illustration of how actual Armies of God handle border walls
Y’all Queda is mobilizing.
Quesadilla is what I was thinking xD
Ads for the convoy have gone up on 40 digital billboards in Florida, Texas, Louisiana, and California, courtesy of a “private donor” whose identity organizers would not disclose.
Oh, I’m willing to bet:
It’s six letters.
Starts with an R
Ends with an A
And is currently getting absolutely decimated with mothballed weapons we last used 15 years or so ago.
Would you like to buy a vowel?
I’ll take two vowels, Pat!
I prefer the original Arabic name, Hezbollah.
Huh
Their name means “party of God”; when I posted I was thinking it meant army of God.
Hezbubba
These guys probably don’t hate Illinois Nazis.
