So, today, Trump announced an "anti Christian task force" to "root out anti Christian bias" in the government. For those who understand Christian nationalist speak, basically, this is probably gonna be a task force to root out anything that isn't christian. You know how crazy these people get with their persecution biases after all.
Look. I don't speak for "the woke" who probably DO wanna control your life to some extent. But I do speak for my own brand of the left. Many of us do not care if you are Christian. If you keep it to your personal life, that's fine. Just keep it out of government. Secularism isn't so much anti religion as much as it is religious neutrality. When dealing with government, we have to make laws that affect all of us, Christian, non Christian, alike. You wouldnt want, say, Muslims pushing Sharia law on people. Likewise, we dont want Christianity to be forced on people. I am a believer in the lemon test. Laws should have secular legislative purposes. The law's primary effect should neither promote nor inhibit religion. And we should avoid excessive entanglement with religion. Again, religion is a personal affair. I dont want to regulate your private lives, just stop trying to regulate mine (the fact that you guys do is why i have such an "anti Christian bias" in the first place).
Of course, Christian nationalists don't want that. They believe that we're a Christian nation and want ideological supremacy including the right to morally police our lives however their bible (or their interpretation thereof) recommends.
This cannot stand. F Trump, F his coalition, and F the horse he rode in on. We all know that this isn't about getting rid of legitimate bias against christians, it's about ensuring that only christian bias exists in government. These snowflakes can't stand it when we lightly tell them no they cant do that when trying to shove their morality down our throats. And that's what this is about.
Again, secularists want neutrality. Sure, neutrality looks like an "anti christian" bias, but in reality, it's just telling you guys no you cant make laws in the name of your religion and your god to police everyone else's life. You have every right under the free exercise clause to believe whatever you want and practice it in non harmful ways that dont negative affect other people. And I will defend that, including against the woke and their own left wing brand of moral policing. I just dont like moral policing, no matter which side it comes from. Okay? okay.
But yeah, as you can tell, not a fan of trump. I know I cant reasonably cover every dumb thing this idiot does or I'd be on here all day, but yeah. Let's just say, I dont like this guy at all. His second term is worse than his first.
