      It’s the same “but look at what she was wearing” bullshit that has been around since time immemorial.

      If someone assaults you it is because they made a bad decision and not because of you, full stop.

        Oh agree 100%, I was mostly pointing out the general hypocrisy of Christians to consistently never do what their lord and savior has been telling them to do…while simultaneously doing terrible things and using “As a CHREEESTIAN” as justification.

          Sorry that was more of a comment and wasn’t trying to disagree or call you out.

          I agree a lot of the Christians and evangelicals are hypocritics. I struggle because so many of them are good people, vote for people that are not insane and what not. My mama was one of them, she was a Democrat, not exactly leftist (she was a parole officer so she really struggled with police reform) and was a theist until the day she died. And then on the other hand my ex wife had some friends that went to Joel osteena megachurch and voted Republican down the line for both Trump elections and every other one that they have voted.

          Humans suck.

            I get that. My mom is a “religious” Trump voter who says some very terrible things, and yes, there are some good ones. It’s just that generally the good ones don’t have the loudest voices, unfortunately, and fear + rage = $$$

    “She was assailed for selling “Proud Christian Nationalist” T-shirts” What does “Christian nationalism” means, when Christianity is religion and not nationality?

      I think in this context it broadly means, “turning America into a theocratic hellscape.”

      Well first, “Christian nationalism” is a compound noun- the two words together have a different meaning than taking the definition of both and smashing them together. It’s similar to how a “grand jury” refers to a specific jury called for a specific purpose separate from a regular jury, not an extra-large one.

      In this case, a “Christian nationalist” is a person who does not believe in the separation of church and state. They (erroneously) believe that America was founded on explicit “Christian” principles and that no other religious or secular thought should be tolerated.

      Given the uneducated foundation of those beliefs, it’s wholly unsurprising that Christian nationalists also support the eradication of all conflicting religions (because “Christians” founded America), the elevation of white people over other races (because white “Christians” founded America), the subjugation of women through removal of reproductive and other equal rights (because white “Christian” men founded America), and the elimination of any kind of social safety nets (because rich white “Christian” men founded America).

        I think you have it backwards. Christian nationalism is something they arrived at after already setting the foundation of political opinions.

        They start by wanting to eradicate all conflicting religions, elevate white people over other races, subjugate women, and eliminate social safety nets in order to reverse engineer the ideology and history they need to support what they already want.

          Palingenetic ultranationalism.

          The idea that facism rallies around an idea society has grown decadent, corrupt an alienating to the everyman and must return to a country’s mythic golden age when everything was better. It applies a “true inheritor” logic that describes a model citizen of the nation which is distinct from those who are it’s corrupting influence that must be subjugated or expunged by a country’s “rebirth” .

          While Christian nationalism is distinct it still shakes hands with others served by this model.

    Isn’t this the one who has a rather unnatural infatuation with Hunter Biden’s massive dong?

    Yeah, Marge, we all realize how magnificent it is, but can you please put the picture down?

    you are attractive by dressing nice and feminine, and you can be beautiful and modest at the same time

    I wonder if Christians like her would consider this outfit modest? I mean I do, but would they? The neckline is low, the skirt is pretty short and the shoulders are bare.

      Not a Muslim, but if anything, she makes me think that maybe it wouldn’t be such a bad idea if at least some women had to wear burqas.
