This thread 🧵 about how Christian the US is at its core. We non-Christians notice this every day, in many ways.
It’s also important to note that the thread would have the same meaning and relevance if it was “white people” instead of “Christians”

Christians are allowed to say in any environment what they believe with certainty, whereas anyone else can state their beliefs, but in a qualified "this is what I believe" or "As a [blank], I believe."

I do not want to buy what I need online. I want to buy it in a store. I live in a fucking city. I should be able to go out and get 90% of what I want/need in my city. I should be able to go out and get something right after realizing I want/need it.
Let’s air those grievances. I want to hear your pettiest gripes on this the holiest of days.

I wonder what % of people in the US are mass shooting survivors?
When I was 14, I was on a crowded tourist street when someone on a rooftop shot at least 6 people, some only yards away from me.
During grad school, there was a mass shooting at my university: 6 students, faculty & staff were killed.

It’s possible that Matt Shaw is naive to Kirk’s & TPUSA’s racist, sexist, anti-education, anti semitism beliefs, and his white Christian supremacist bigotry, all cloaked in the facade of ‘free debate’; but if he is, that’s his own fucking fault and he deserves to be roasted for it
Making a decision to participate in a political movement that's anathema to many Americans — including a large percentage of Cubs fans — only ensures that Matt Shaw will remain in the spotlight in 2026.

The municipal police have another problem too. A study from a few years ago found that police were the sixth leading cause of death for Black men in the United States. That means Black men have a greater risk of being murdered by police than being killed in an actual crime.

For every thousand forcible sexual assaults, there are - I'm serious, there's data on this - eleven convictions. That's right, 11 out of every 1000 forcible rapes result in a conviction. And of those, between three and four are wrongful convictions.

Finally, there’s social media discourse about a subject I know extremely well (typeface design & history), but most of the conversation is so inaccurate & opinionated, I can’t even begin to respond. So I just stay out of it. It’s a good reminder: Experts’ voices are often minimized on social media

Jeff Kent did not like Barry Bonds, he reportedly took Bonds front seat on the team bus to show him up, spoke badly about him behind his back to the media numerous times, and fought with Bonds verbally and physically. I don’t like Kent, never did, and I’m disappointed he was elected to the HoF.

One indication of how contrived and meaningless Spotify Wrapped is; is that my most-listened-to genre is a genre I have never heard of (AOR) and didn’t know what it was until I looked it up. And I’m still not clear about what it is. But thanks anyway, Spotify.
