The right is unhinged and is demanding a Christofascist nation

“You cannot grant these powers to the citizenry without also requiring that every elected official and federal employee is a churchgoing Christian and that the nation explicitly identifies itself with Jesus Christ and governs in a manner informed by the Church,”
This statement was written by fascist MTG's fascist intern, Yiannopoulos

This goes on and filthy MTG runs around saying the statements by Alex Jones are freedom of speech.
These people are nuts and have no clue what America stands for.

Also penned by the same fascist pig.
“You will know America is serious about saving itself, and that it has absorbed the scale of the undertaking, when you see a president adding his signature to revivified blasphemy laws, which will prevent the open promotion of sedition, institute meaningful penalties for insulting, irreverent or contemptuous language about Our Lord, and moreover restore to general society an understanding that words matter, they carry consequences, and they may not be capriciously and arbitrarily redefined by mentally unstable graffiti artists with PhDs,”

We are in a bad place America.

Though it must be said, a PhD ain't what it used to be because much of the bell-shaped curve now owns one.

Same goes for Yiannopoulos. ChristoFascist extremeism is one reason Christianity is a shrinking religion.

The numbers are stunning.
They are shitting on their tables.
The Christofascist are doing great harm to Christianity. They are also doing great harm to America.

She speaks for no one but she will get reelected!

total opportunists and attention whores, who will keep pushing to further extremes simply because it works. It gives them currency and keeps them relevant. Every new absurd utterance is another fifteen minutes of fame.

They are cunning sociopaths who are totally committed to installing white christian minority rule.
They will mow down anyone who stands in their way.

I think they use it as a means to control their followers and attain absolute power.

10. Yes. Most of the GOP leaders care nothing about the issues they spout.

Yes a few of them believe it perhaps.

But most of them are cunning, manipulative sociopaths who use made up issues to control and manipulate the
American public.

They use what works, if religion didn't work to get them power and wealth, they would switch to something else.

I’m sorry for language. I have reached my last nerve and it is own life support.

14. On behalf of Britain, I apologise for failing in the moral education of the grifter Yiannopoulos

who will say anything, without any sincerity, to get money off rich bigots, and work with anyone to do that, whatever the consequences to other people.

However this creep is on record advocating for adult men having sex with 13 year old children. That occurred in 2016.
Yo what the f is Christian about that? I guess MTG likes him cause she also has some weird sex things going.
