    Let me give clarity, not all Republicans are Christians, and not all Christians are Republican!

    I don’t consider myself a believer or practice religion anymore, but dude, you’re feeding stereotypes so hard, it’s offensive and I’m not either of the above!

    It’s kind of pitiful when you’re part of the problem, adding fuel to the fire of divide! It’s not left vs right, is us vs the ultra wealthy! If they disappear, the rest of us thrive!

        Nobody’s singing kumbaya at all. But not all Republicans are Christians, nor shitty. No, I’m not either. Yes Trump is bad. But the reason all the dems bitch about fumbling elections and not getting their shit together is because they’re also owned by fucking billionaires. It’s a little tug on either direction, and nobody wins long term.

        Wake up, bro! Billionaire class owns us!

          If someone is willingly sitting at a table with 9 Nazis, there are 10 Nazis at that table. So yes, anyone who willingly calls themselves a Republican at this point is no different than the Nazis of old. It’s been TEN YEARS- minimum

            I’d be happy as ever if he did run or win. Those were the cards dealt, unfortunately, because the billionaires knew they could manipulate him.

            Nearly half the country considers themselves independent, or at least not Democrat or Republican. So there’s a lot more “blame” than just die hard Republicans… If you’re playing that game. Three are also a ton of people over 65 who only vote Republican, because “less taxes and less gov overreach or involvement” because that’s what’s been preached for so long.

            Again, if so many shitting on me realized the manipulation that pits left vs right instead of getting angry at the billionaires class, controlling both sides, we could overthrow the 2 party system, elect someone actually fresh and uncontrolled, and start to fix this place, starting with executive orders on wealth taxes and undoing all the damage from all of Trump. That’s the only way to move forward. Actually.

      All Christians are stupid, all US republicans are equally stupid.

      If you believe in either or any other religion to a point it dictates your life? Your opinion worthless to me.

        I know plenty of reputable and humble Christians. Of you think of all the bad shit you see on TV, yes, they’re brought to light, but so many other people who are “religious” try to lead better lives, set examples, donate time or money. No, you don’t need religion to be a better person, but I know plenty of people who uses it like a sort of meditation. A break from life, a chance to hear a good message about servitude, etc.

        Not every “ChRiStIaN” is going to be a self-righteous asshole or think they’re better or smarter than everyone. They do exist.

        As for Republicans, I know plenty who fucking hate Trump, despise him. Both elections. Voted blue. They “lean” Republican but are more centric. But you’re stuck “choosing sides” more often than not, and that’s now by design.

        Hegseth is using religion to relate to people IMO. He doesn’t give a shit, nor believe in any religion. Pulling on heartstrings or trying to influence through propaganda. Nothing new. Not all “Christians” should get a bad rep from a few bad eggs. Same goes for anyone left or progressive. There are bad eggs everywhere, not everyone buys into the bullshit.
