Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

There is no end if our government doesn't start taking these christian nationalists as a serious threat. Not to worry, three generations as a theocracy will rip this entire nation to threads.
What's scarier is; it might not. It might just radically alter the culture to being radically restrictive to a new theocratic orthodoxy. Megachurches combining to create new variants on the bible and its interpretation. A new set of "intellectuals" re-writing the constitution under divine providence. A new geopolitics, corporate structures, and large companies willing to go along with it.
Please stop writing nightmares for me to read, thank you. /s
I'm glad I don't live in the United state's but what worries me is if this happens and they end up going to war with other countries
If you want a preview, check out Handmaid’s Tale.
I am convinced that the Nationalist Christians view both the book and the Hulu series as an aspirational goal instead of a cautionary tale.
The preview is Nazi Germany, multiple degrees larger, and in black and yellow. We have real world examples of these things.
