The dems are trying to take over the US WITHOUT an election

The soon to be eliminated by the SCOTUS attempt to prevent opposition from appearing on presidential election ballots is a coup attempt that the chicketshit dems believe will not involve bullets.

Why? What is the ultimate goal?
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Democratic rule for decades duh @RageAgainstTheMachine
spjennifer · 56-60, T
@jackjjackson Because undemocratic rule by Christo-Fascists for decades would be better, yup 🤮
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Does inane name calling make you feel better about yourself?

@jackjjackson So you don't think the Republican Party is now inhabited by Christo-Fascists, because they are... Take a good look at your House Speaker, there's one right there.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
To so sure about him time will tell. Just because someone doesn’t practice your preferred religion doesn’t mean it’s wrong. There are nutty extremists on both sides so quibble about who is allegedly nuttier it fruitless. You’re not an extremist are you? @spjennifer

@jackjjackson Back when the Moral Majority was formed, their stated goal was to get one of their Christain (sic) Fundamentalists into the White House, not quite but close enough to matter. Our Nation is a secular one and Church and State MUST remain separate else we become like those countries where people are beheaded and women are burned alive. I don't know if you've been in those kinds of Countries but I have been plenty and I won't see ours become like that. No, I'm not an "extremist", but I AM against a Theocracy ruled by right wing wingnuts who believe in some fable rather than the rule of Law.

Separation of church and state is a cornerstone and we all know it. There are always a few crazies to be ignored. Exaggerating re other countries only matters when you move there. @spjennifer
spjennifer · 56-60, T
@jackjjackson We have plenty of our own homegrown crazies, you don't listen to some of them like Lowrent Boozeburp and her friends, they're all about Jeezus!
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Freedom of religion and separation of church and state. @spjennifer
spjennifer · 56-60, T
@jackjjackson They only got one word wrong in there, should have been "Freedom [b]from[/b] Religion". They should be allowed to practice theirs all they want and leave the rest of us alone. We are seeing a lot more Laws lately that have a religious bent...
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
What laws might they be? Seems to me that these prestigious university presidents that testified before Congress recently could give a rats ass about the Constitution. @spjennifer
spjennifer · 56-60, T
@jackjjackson How about these, mostly State Laws but they are all religion based:

Arkansas:
Governor Asa Hutchison passed SB 975 last year, which aims to keep religious exercise from being "substantially burdened by government". Opponents to the bill say it enables discrimination against gay people.

Florida:
On 1 July, House Bill 43 will go into effect, which will allow clergy and religious organisations to refuse to marry people if it violates a "sincerely held religious belief".

Mississippi:
The governor of Mississippi, Phil Bryant, signed a sweeping bill, HB1523, that allows businesses to refuse service to gay couples based on religious beliefs, amid opposition from equal rights groups and businesses.

Oklahoma:
Clergy and other officials do not have to perform same-sex marriages or offer marriage counselling in the state to those who violate their religious beliefs, thanks to House Bill 1007, signed by Governor May Fallin.

Texas:
Just prior to the US Supreme Court ruling legalising same-sex marriage, Texas Governor Greg Abbott passed a similar bill to Oklahoma's regarding clergy and facilities and same-sex marriage, Senate Bill 2065.

Want more?
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
More? Those are NONE.

Sounds like making the playing field level. Opponents you mention are adding the term “gay” spontaneously based on nothing.

Why should a private citizen or organization be required to do anything they do. To went to? You wouldn’t want to be required to go to a church I assume?



@spjennifer
spjennifer · 56-60, T
@jackjjackson "None" really? those are all Laws based on Religious beliefs and have nothing to do with "levelling the playing field". They are exactly what they are intended to be, discriminatory in every way.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
You did not answer the question. Would you like the government or anyone or thing to require you to attend church?

The last four are all the same. You did not answer the question regarding that either. “ Why should a private citizen or organization be required to do anything they do not want to?

You’ve entirely or mistakenly missed the issue in those four. Religion is not the issue. The issue is the question I asked YOU. Please answer it this time around.

So far rather than make sense you’re broadcasting propaganda as Peanuts would say WAHWAHWAHWAH 🤦🏼‍♂️

I suspect that would be next on the agenda of the Christo-Fascists, same as would be mandatory recitation of the lord's prayer in schools, just like it used to be, no matter whether they were Jewish or Muslim or what have you. Make America White Again!

Yes, they are all similar and discriminatory Laws as is the rescinding of Roe v Wade in many red States, so how about that, the Repug led SCOTUS rescinded a regulation that protected women so they weren't forced to birth unwanted children, speaking of "not doing anything they don't want to"...

No, you're the one who isn't getting the simple fact that States led by Christo-Fascists are attempting to force their non-secular, religious right ideology into the mainstream world. What will be next? a ban on interracial marriages, a return to school segregation? Preventing immigrants from working?

Says the guy who's OP is total Right Wing BS propaganda 😵‍💫

Gee whiz I’m glad you got all that hate out. I’m proposing a holiday cease fire and if it’s your thing Merry Christmas friend 🎄 @spjennifer
