I don’t know about y’all, but if I grew up in a country that never has the news criticizing its leaders, I’d be very skepical and deduce that there is censorshop going on and the offical news could be exaggerated or entirely falsified. Do people in authoritarian countries actually just eat the propaganda? To what extent do they believe the propaganda?

    It’s not religion that’s the problem but ideology and lazy thinking in general. How many people in the political parties we oppose just accept the lies being fed to them with no critical thought or investigation?

      Shitlers base is evangelicals. Evangelicals are the biggest religion in the u.s. Evangelicals are the largest single voting bloc in the u.s. Christianity indoctrinates people from birth believe obvious lies. Shitler is an obvious liar.

      Religion is the poisonous tree that has bore us this fruit. It is most definitely not a “both sides” (cringe) issue.
