Interesting. Didn’t realize it went back that far - again, I had always (mis-) attributed the quote to Carlin. Thanks for sharing.

I realize you properly kept the title the same as the article’s, but “Risk” is doing a LOT of heavy lifting there.

Aside from a funeral and a couple of weddings, I haven’t set foot in a church since I moved out on my own. However, I would absolutely sit down for a service where the preacher read passages from the New Testament with the moral of the sermon being “Are we the baddies?”

I mean, they are 100% Christian values though they’re not Christ’s values.

I like this Jesus fellow, but his fan club is the worst.

Paraphrased, and can’t recall who said it (I thought it was George Carlin but can’t find the quote).

“Pro-family”, “family friendly”, “family values”, and similar phrases are pretty much all dogwhistles for “Christian values” but not the values that actually help anyone (love thy neighbor, etc).

Turnabout’s fair play 🤷‍♂️ My state-level politicians have been running as Democrats and then switching parties after they’re elected. 😠

I’m reading that in a positive light: abolish political parties (i.e. no more magic ‘R’ for the mouth-breathers to look for).

Everyone (sane, insane, benevolent, evil, corrupt, etc) runs as Republican. Nice little loophole.

Silly rabbit. Crime is for poor people.

When a rich person does it, it’s just being smart.

Musk has already proven he can buy a national election. … If he is successful at buying 50 state elections

Wisconsin is his test run of that as we speak.

Thank you for your service (the not voting for Trump part; my friends who were in the military just see it as a job and cringe when people thank them, so I won’t do that).

Nowhere in the post title, headline, summary, or actual article is this called a “win”.
