  • Its multiple things, for one my neighbor who is like kin to me was abused by her father growing up and the Adventist protected him. Thats more personal compared to my families gripes, basically we’ve been dealing with them for about a hundred years legally, socially, and economically. The main things that fuel that side of my hatred is the hypocrisy, the dishonor, and the fact that they will take the most underhanded and spineless way of gaining political control.

    Theyve mellowed out kinda in the last 50 years according to my family, but the church structure is more or less the same. Think of it as a slightly toned down Jehovah’s witnesses with some scientology mixed in, the people may be fine but the leadership is fucken horrid and abusive to their own.

    They also do shunning or at least used to which is fucking abhorrent, ya dont exile kin just because they broke a stupid religious tenant.





  • Tolerance is a social contract, if you are tolerant of others you will be tolerated as well. It can be the most terse a step from violence tolerance but so long as folks follow it then it remains. But once ya break it then the group ya broke it against has no reason to be tolerant of you, neither are those who align with them.

    For example I fucking hate the Seventh day Adventists, its for mostly ancestral reasons but I hate them and refuse to act tolerant towards them. I am not entitled to the tolerance nor civility of those who think that is unacceptable, nor do I want it.









  • Im a Redneck, course I own a fucken gun. But heres the thing the Republicans are a party of fucken fascists, even if they dont get as bad as I suspect theyll still most likely use the police to gun down protesters and strikers. I just aint an idiot who assumes shit will work out, so I take every fucken step I can to keep the worst from happening. “Prepare for war hope for peace” is a pretty solid summary of alot of my philosophy.

    I assume for the worst and the worst involves concentration camps, firing lines, and the destruction of civil liberties. Sure ya can probably take out the local police with an ad hoc militia, but can ya take out say an SS or SA equivalent? What about the National guard or the military itself? Cause my rough guess is that the corruption would take about ten years minimum to destroy the professionalism and tech advantage of the US military.

    Voting costs nothing and depending on where one lives can have an outsized impact.
