Welcome to The Shitpost Office
Shitposts processed from 9 to 5, with occasional overtime on weekends.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Sinister
Treat others like fellow employees, not enemies in the breakroom.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Respect people’s time and space. We’re here to laugh, not to loathe
Rule 2: No Prohibited Postage
Some packages are simply undeliverable. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content
- NSFW content must be properly tagged
If you see anything that violates these rules, please report it so we can return it to sender. Otherwise? Have fun, be silly, and enjoy the chaos. The office runs best when everyone’s laughing.... or retching over the stench, at least.

Not sure I am reading the new Testament right but Jesus, quite frequently, did not sound terribly observent to the ruling class to me.
Your mistake was actually reading the bible.
You're not supposed to read it, you're supposed to let other people cherry-pick passages for you, which you can then selectively observe while conveniently ignoring all the incongruent parts.
Ya silly.
“Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.” ~Hebrews 13:17
I've read it, it says that God selected Trump as President.
That's on Paulists - not Christians.
"And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." ~ Jesus, Mark 12:17
The Bible says that the ruling class is ruling because God wills it, every ruler has been carefully selected by God. It says so repeatedly throughout the Old and New Testament.
"Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you." ~Hebrews 13:17
The Bible is pro oppression, and has been quoted to defend the ruling class for seventeen centuries or so. God says that only He can judge them, but not you.
The Bible is a lot of things. Like I said, Jesus also said a lot of things that were not terribly subservent to the elite.
