Latinos are pretty good if they can be educated properly. Alas Democrats and left hold all the institutional powers. Only way to help them see the light is through the church.

Latinos are fine if their identity is blobbed together with the white identity (aka before the 1970s). They only start becoming an issue when a ‘Latino’ identity arises and supremicist nonsense like La Raza and Aztlan appear.

State atheism is exactly what the Founders were worried about. The government should be agnostic, not “secular” or “separated”.

"State atheism" or should I said "State religion" when they turn the state and statism into a religion. That's another South Park clip who's still relevant.

 

[KrabFish]

Yeah, Goya did well off of supporting Trump, and it made the TDSers mad as hell. Brought out a ton of thinly-veiled to non-veiled racism against hispanics, suddenly Trump was both a Mexican stereotype spic-lover and also a horrid evil man who puts Mexican children in Nazi-cages.

Dont forget share holders , many had a good heads up on this (hint) (hint)

When TES sends us posters, they aren't sendind us their best.

I swear this was some subtle nod towards the way Trump sometimes misspells words, but this is likely just a typo.

That's the thing with this "society would be better if it was atheistic" position.

God might not be real, but the state almost certainly is. And in the absence of religion, politics become cults, sufficiently charismatic political figures become prophets and messiahs, and idealized states take the place of God. This is shown in the French Revolution, and every communist state that has ever existed in human history.

"State atheism" or should I said "State religion" when they turn the state and statism into a religion.

Specifically state-as-religion tends to follow (likely deliberately) Catholicism as a model. As we were discussing just a few pages back, there's the sainting of political figures, the adornment of symbols and vestments, and then there's the idea of tithing (taxes) as proof of faith and holiness. But more than that, there's the fact that the state is not just to be worshiped but feared. The idea of it as an iron fist that could smash down upon us at a moment's notice in a righteous and vengeful fury for our sins... and that's a good thing, to them. At least, as long as you're pondering the fist smashing down on those filthy sinners and not you.

Which is another comparison. Leftist state-worship has absorbed concepts like original sin (racism, privilege) and "we are all sinners" and whatnot, but much like with particularly haughty and somewhat insincere Catholics, the acknowledgement of your own sins is token at best, while you loudly castigate others for their sins and demand restitution, recompense, and a renewal of their vows of faith.

Really, you could go on and on with the comparisons between Statism and Catholicism. "There is no God outside the church", "We'll investigate ourselves for our wrongdoing", "Cast out the nonbelievers", "There is only one true God", "Those declared Holy may be flawed but they are never wrong", just on and on.

It's because your euphoria perfectly belongs on r/atheism where you can circlejerk with the other atheists about how enlightened and smart you are compared to all the idiots who believe in the fly spaghetti monster.

The issue here, is that I don't actually care for calling anyone who believes in religion an idiot, rather instead they are victims of an institution which as a whole is an abuser's fantasy when it comes to finding, grooming, and having their way with, their victims.

It used to be necessary, and in some cases, it still is. But when an institution like that can get a sane person to be convinced that a magic crust of bread or a donation to someone who in reality does not care about them in the slightest will somehow cure their sorrows, then the things that institution has become is the stuff of nightmares, not of hope.

I genuinely see the merit in religion (people sometimes need magical thinking to heal from intense trauma), but the bullshit religion being thrown around by Trump's sycophants is the worst possible kind: worship of someone because "god said so".

That magnifies the greatest toxins of religion, whilst stripping it of any real good, as people's source of "healing" is a man that will betray them in the end. When Trump finally shows his ass in a way that gets him thrown in prison, and he will, everyone that misguidedly worshiped him will be devastated, as the lie they wrapped around themselves crashes down.

And after that, they'll get angry, very angry. And all it will take is a single voice that sounds vaguely like Trump's to whip that mass of people into a flash-mob worse than BLM ever could be.

And it really won't matter what they're directing their anger at, they won't even care. Shit will just get destroyed.

Religion is supposed to help, regardless of it's authenticity, but so far, every single major religion I've seen has been twisted and warped into a controlling element in billions of people's lives. And time after time, that fact produces the very problem we have with Trump right now.

You call me a high-horse atheist that likes "dunking on the stupids", but you couldn't be farther from the truth.
I'm just pissed, and worried, because a bona fide cult leader has put himself in the most powerful leadership position on the entire planet.

That scares me. On a Jonestown level kind of scared.

And any reasonable person would also be scared.

Whatever. I said my piece, and that's good enough.

I don't hate any of you, but for now, adios from this thread.

How often a legitimate concern, it met with ridicule and spurned
Told to fuck off, told they're dumb
Never once taking stock in where they're coming from
Called a hypocrite and told to be quiet
While being the hypocrite, and remaining in company with anyone else that will buy it

Tit for tat, this and that, "my opinion is worth something, not yours"
The voices of many that closed the shops of reason, shuttering those doors
Failures of mind, recluses with none but their own kind
They choose to hate, but hate themselves
As they shove any contradicting ideas onto moldy shelves

Dumbness and numbess, they seem to think the latter, and weaponize the former
As they do naught but huddle in their own corner
Reality never once striking their mind, as that is shunned by others of their kind
"I'm not like them", they say, "I'm smart. I'm in the know"
But for their belief, they've nothing but tall tales to show

Fools, lolcows of their own making, their own ridicule a loaf in the oven baking
They laugh and snicker as their mire grows thicker
The fire they built flowing through their house, not burning, but decaying
Flaying their mind, and that of the rest of their kind
Till the Kiwi Turns it's eyes on them one moment, to laugh at their torment

It used to be necessary, and in some cases, it still is.

We need religion so that dumb people have something to keep them in line unlike us intelligent people that stay in line through the power of our vast intellects.

When Trump finally shows his ass in a way that gets him thrown in prison, and he will,

We've spent 4 long, interminable years where every last microsecond of his life has been scraped over with a fine-toothed comb and have absolutely nothing to show for it, but don't worry! I'm sure Trump won't get the RNC nom err won't win the presidency err won't escape Mueller untouched err, escape getting tossed in jail. Whatever you say, bro.

every single major religion I've seen has been twisted and warped into a controlling element in billions of people's lives.

Unlike secular societies, which have always been paragons of peace, justice, and have never killed millions of people for no gain whatsoever.

I guess I'm too optimist, but I'm glad to see The Goya strikes back. https://www.americanthinker.com/blo...d_destruction_is_moving_latinos_to_trump.html

It really hasn't gotten through to the left in America how alienating their dogma is to Latinos. It never occurs to them that people from a very conservative, very Catholic part of the world aren't going to be open to a political ideology that trivializes abortion, exposes children to debauchery, uses "latinx" like it's not an insult to their language, and openly insults their religion.

Someone earlier in this thread posted pictures of a bunch of novena candles with Democrat figures on them and my first thought was "do the people who made these have any idea how offensive these are?" Good luck finding a Catholic from south of the border who wouldn't slap that shit out of your hand and yell at you.

That's to say nothing about how openly racist BLM-type black people are to Latinos. Your average Daily Show-watching twitter addict may be blind to all of this, but the Latin American community sure as Hell isn't.

Drumpf courts fundies too much and is a scary Jonestown cult leader who will whip his followers into violence and then get thrown in jail. But I don't hate religion in general! I'm not like the other fedoras!

Do you understand how religion came about in the first place (prehistoric homo sapiens gradually attributing wills and personalities to natural forces and concepts relevant to society and civilization), or are you just regurgitating this early-2000s fedora-lord understanding of things to sound smart?

 

[ZMOT]

Wait a minute, didn't they say Trump was unwanted in Kenosha? Aren't healthcare workers supposed to hate him? The media wouldn't lie, would they?

wait, are those stills of people waving or are they raising their arm for some form of greeting the leader of the country...?!

 

[Adamska]

I'm an apatheist that leans atheist, and this euphoric's delusions that cults of personality don't exist in secular societies makes me laugh.

Reminder that the biggest kill counts and attrocities still goes to the "secular" communists, with China for numbers and Cambodia for proportion of their population.

Libtards constantly afraid of the impending theocracy, when in reality US has so many ever splintering Protestant groups such a theocracy would be an utter nightmare to actually manage.

 

[Kari Kamiya]

It's been speculated that if they rig the Presidential election, they don't fucking dare rig the Congressional/state level elections because rigging EVERYTHING to give Democrats 100% flawless victory everywhere including the ultimate dream (a veto proof super-majority in the Senate) would effectively be ASKING for a day of the rope mass murder of the left at the hands of a super fucking pissed off right, due to them not even bothering to hide that they were pulling a coup.

But on the other hand, what's the cliche? "In for a penny in for a pound"? If they rig the election to get Biden in, might as well right EVERYTHING and give him a super-majority in Congress and Democrats control over all of the state houses for gerrymandering uber alles. Because if you are committing treason, you might as well go all in on treason.

My understanding (just by looking at the ballot layout itself) is if they're going to rig the presidential election, that's also going to affect congressional and state level as well since they're typically listed on the same ballot (unless other states have separate district ballots from the presidential ballots) which have to get fed into a machine to count the votes. So if they're going to throw out ballots marked for Trump, that means they're also throwing out the other candidates since those ballots will typically (but not always) have votes for those not on the "right side of history".

I know there's people out there who'll only vote for the president and not bother with representatives, senators, or other local elections, but there are still those who do partial or fill out the entire ballot. Unless they're going back to counting by hand the votes instead of feeding them through a machine to tally the votes or didn't/couldn't find a way to make it so the machine only targets the presidential choice and leaving everything else alone, tossing ballots marked for Trump is going to cost candidates votes and also falsely lower the voter turn-out rate.

So yeah, I think they're going to want to go all-out with this election to get back as much power as they desperately want to reverse everything Trump has done. Local elections may be just as much in play for fraud as the presidential election, more-so in swing states since showing a rust belt state going blue locally would make the music stop and people will notice.

Lol I remember growing up how people seemed to seriously think Bush wanted to create a theocracy and it would really happen for really reals if McCain and Palin got elected. Also the Rethuglican Fundies would start a nuclear war in the middle east any day now to bring Jesus back
