some of my faves also who helped me deconstruct and rid myself of those terrible ideologies and epistemologies ... @unfitchristian.com @pastortrey05.com to name a few
I no longer identify as a Christian. I've spent the last several years deconstructing those ideologies for a variety of reasons. Are any of you in the same boat?

Have you deconstructed from institutionalized religion?

If yes, what made you choose another path?

"Walmart makes the places it operates in poorer than they would be if it had never shown up at all. Sometimes consumer prices are an incomplete, even misleading, signal of economic well-being."

Fascinating studies on the broader effects of Walmart:

That moment when #maga finds out their leaders and new tech bro friends actually meant that kicking out “illegals” would clear the way for low wage manual labor jobs, not high paying tech jobs, for the “native born” blue collar Americans who voted for Trump.

It's not just about taking opportunities away from Latino, Black, Asian, & Indigenous people. It's about changing the one place where White identity superiority and history are challenged in America.

There is something happening to White people in college that is very scary to system.

I NEVER want to hear anyone say the GOP cares about working people or the cost of living!

FACTS: The GOP don’t care about you, will raise your taxes, take away your healthcare, gouge prices, lower wages, outsource USA jobs, give away your hard earned Social Security as a handout to billionaires!!!

Yep this again.

Affirmative action was never about admitting unqualified Black kids.

It was always about ensuring qualified Black kids could also get accepted despite a world of systemic racism.

The “unqualified admission” we don't hear of, are legacy students—like how Kavanaugh got into Yale.
