I can't disagree with any of that. All I'll add is the saying, "Religion is the opiate of the masses."
Cuz I cannot ignore the connection between evangelical/charismatic Christianity and people susceptible to MAGA bullshit.
Yep. My guy is also "getting more christian" (aka christo-fascist) despite not going to church since he was a kid. Turns out, thinking a specific ideology is not only correct, but ordained by God, allows you to dehumanize anybody who isn't completely falling in line.
At least we're no longer alone bro
So true. Hope you've been able to make some more deep connections with people who aren't crazy. Thanks for giving me the space to vent about this.
That's why I'm on lemmy.ca... Trauma bonding with my fellow Canadians lmao!
It was cathartic on my end as well. Thanks my dude!
