American conservative genocide boners at full mast.

Go burn down a "christian" conversion center in return.

[–] Deceptichum@kbin.social 92 points 2 years ago (3 children)

No, no, no.

An eye for an eye makes the world blind.

Burn down two conversion centres and make them blind first.

"And so white, gun-toting, American Jesus said unto them: 'Burn that muthafucka to the ground!'"

How long until they start bombing them like they did abortion clinics back in the day?

This is genocide. It will not stop until we are exterminated and driven to extinction, or ~~Christianity~~ Christian ideology ~~is destroyed and left with a reputation every bit as terrible as that of Nazi ideology~~ dies out and is recorded accurately in the history books as the atrocity it is.

[Reworded for clarity.]

I'm attacking the ideology and stating that it needs to be removed from our system, and power seized from those that support it. NOT that Christians need to be forcefully removed from society. They say we have no right to exist, and attempt to purge us by force and genocide. We must fight by peacefully but forcefully exposing their ideology for what it is until it is history.

American Christianity is antithetical to trans rights.

Trans rights are human rights.

Pretty easy to see who needs to be regulated.

Let's burn down their churches. They are a waste of space and energy. Being heated and powered 24/7 for only a day or two of worship services is incredibly frustrating, especially when there's a church on every block (in my location, at least).

Let's build libraries and community centers and low-cost daycare centers on that land instead.

No need to burn a perfectly good building when you can just repurpose it..

[–] Harbinger01173430@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

It's a church. The enemy lives within. Better purge it from evil before reusing it. /S

Edinburgh is great inspiration for that

You’re projecting. Are you going to add synagogues and mosques to your list of targets? You’ll notice they never interview the pastors of school shooters, talking about how devout they are. Instead you hear about how their associates were afraid of them and how they were known hurt animals.

[–] derpgon@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Synagogues and mosques are at most 1 per middle sized city. Churches are in the tens, and are basically in every shithole imaginable. Comparing numbers from 2021, churches outnumber mosques ~1:150 (2 800 vs 380 000).

[–] olympicyes@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Based on your numbers, if it were determined that the person who burned down the clinic were Muslim, would you burn down a few churches anyway? How about we just not use arson as a tool to attack those we disagree with, even rhetorically.

[–] derpgon@programming.dev 0 points 2 years ago

I just presented the numbers, but I totally would reduce churches in the US. Modern Christianity is a stain on the the face of earth.

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

....Well I'm officially horrified.

[–] Fades@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

stop them any way possible! They are helping the wrong people!!!

  • the modern day christofascist moron
[–] gennygameshark@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I am so profoundly saddened by the behavior of those that claim that their violent destructive antisocial actions are fuled by something "holy" or "pure", by those who are so afraid of not having the answers that they pretend to have them all in a single old book...

That people would do this to others for nothing...
