First thing that comes to mind for me is the huge number of people who are religious fanatics here, which is unusual for a Western country. This is also a big part of what led us to the fascist government we have today.
I think you’ve kinda missed the lede - religious fanatics. We’ve got plenty of those. Other western countries have quite a few religious people, but they aren’t often in-your-face cross wearing, “I’m a Christian”, openly judgy Karens like they are here.
I specified religious fanatics because they're the problem, not religious people in general.
Evangelism in America is a major problem that needs to be addressed. The sooner religion is snuffed out the faster we can begin to build community based on real life.
in Europe, someone tells me their are Christian or are wearing a cross, it's no big deal.
in the US, it's a massive red flag
Fuck you, Jerry Falwell. Fuck you.
Look at the nutjobs that were the backbone of what became America. Basically a bunch of puritan nutjobs who didn't like how laissez faire England was becoming so they hopped on the boat to America so they could make their puritanical paradise.
Y'all are just noticing it now which is a failure of the education system. Then again we already know this.
Thoughts and prayers to America 🙏🏾
You’re not wrong. It wasn’t for “freedom of religion”, it was for freedom of their religion.
