Is American foreign policy always a cool rational neoliberal calculation or do the delusions of the general public have meaningful impact?

    Backing this up because people don’t realize:

    • how prevalent this is in the south
    • how many of these people hold prominent governmental positions in the south
    • how generally acceptable it is to be one of these fascists

    It’s very, very, very bad

      Genuinely if I had my way people associated with the Southern Baptist church would be so oppressed that I should have difficulty running for public office just because my grandma was one and she took me to church as a kid.

      Anyone with strong ties to that church needs re-education and lifelong monitoring. Most of the leaders, including nearly every pastor, should be given the fucking wall.
