Word of advice if any Christian Nationalist claims there is no “separation of church and state” in the Constitution let them know they’re right there’s actually something WAY more specific. It’s called the Establishment Clause. Read it up and memorize to heart folks we’ll be needing it. #politicssky
Never before has my social media algorithm been bombarded by posts promoting two particular papal favorites. For the liberals their guy is Cardinal Luis Tagle of the Philippines and for the right wing Cardinal Robert Sarah of Guinea. My guess is that neither will get it. 🧵

Okay as batshit crazy as the news has been the thing I’m trying to get my head around most is why a film like Conclave (2024) has such a dense array of fan art popping up all over the place?

My god they think of everything to obsess about. I guess “woke”means just straight facts.

So from what I gather Trump figured out how to basically have concentration camps outsourced. What happened to having those jobs in the good ole US of A, Donny? #FuckTrump

Remember folks, even while driving you can passively fight fascism. I just flipped off two Teslas on my commute to work this morning and made sure to honk so I’d get their attention. #FuckElonMusk

It’s not so much we didn’t see it coming with his recent health prognosis, but damn what an awful start to this year along with the wildfires in LA and the inauguration of the orange shithead.
His sinister, surreal vision of America made him a leading counterculture auteur — with movies such as "Blue Velvet," "Wild at Heart" and "Mulholland Drive," and the groundbreaking TV series "Twin Peaks."

The GOP will blame anything on DEI at this point…
It’s a free country. You can choose to believe Trump or Elon. You can choose to believe that DEI, Democrats, or a few dry fire hydrants caused these unprecedented fires. Or you can choose to be informed, to acquire actual knowledge & truth. Like here.👇 www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2025...

The DNC really needs to take more pages from the GOP playbook. Go on the offensive finding the weak points the GOP can’t defend (Christian Nationalism, dismantling popular programs, etc.). On top of it refocus on labor issues and rebuilding their support of unions their top priority.
There is a powerful disinformation and propaganda apparatus (1) for which Trump can do no wrong and (2) which, in all cases of conflict, will instantly advance a narrative, whether true or false or somewhere in between, that it’s the fault of Democrats, liberals, or the woke left.

Fun fact about men: most of us don’t buy our own wallets. We only get new ones when one of the women in our lives notices our old ones are getting too shabby and they buy us one for a stocking stuffer.

Hate thrives when the majority doesn’t recognize their privilege and the marginalized too easily fooled into turning against each other. Thats why the GOP are now targeting education because they know this lack of awareness keeps them in power.

I think it’s safe to say Christian Nationalism has so perverted the teachings of Christianity so severely it has now made it the opposite of how it started. You can thank a lot of groups such as Family Research Council, Alliance Defending Freedom, Heritage Foundation, Focus on the Family, etc for it

A great case of maybe America is no different than any other country with such blatant corruption and that in the end the GOP always gets what they want even if it’s getting away with a coup attempt to install a totalitarian regime.

Ah yes classic Golden Globes. Is Challengers (2024) being labeled a “comedy or musical” better or worse than when they put The Martian (2015) in that same category? I don’t know but so far this category is yet again for another year a hot mess. #filmsky

Sad that it’s come to passing common sense laws to protect the first amendment. Make no mistake the enemy that wishes to bring censorship is the far right and the far right alone.
PRINCETON, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy signed a law Monday to prohibit public and school libraries from banning books in the state and to enshrine protections against civil and criminal charges for librarians who comply with the law.

I’ve heard many Christians say when looking for a church if one is accepting of LGBTQ people they immediately rule it out as a possibility. Privilege and Oppression is so ingrained into their identity that challenging injustices seems like an attack on them personally instead of their behavior.
