I think she really believes this stuff.
The “private” chatroom from a while ago seems to indicate that, indeed, they believe their own shit. It would be worrying to have these people in position of great power, wouldn’t it?
Somehow I doubt this was because Francis continued church policies of covering up for sex offenders.
What. A. Fucking. Cunt.
She has neither the warmth or depth.
(I didn’t come up with this)
We know.
She strikes me as someone who says controversial things to remain relevant.
Reminds me of one we had over here, I intentionally don’t remember her name but like Piers Morgan but less relevant.
Always chuckle at went on TV saying she hates people calling their children after places… and her daughter was called India.
She strikes me as someone who says controversial things to remain relevant.
She was a Qanon wine mom YouTuber prior to her political career, so yeah, you are 100% correct.
I remember seeing that on YouTube years ago.
This is the least inexplicable shit to barf out her word hole. A lot of branches on the Protestant tree hate the Catholic Church and always have.
American Christianity is weird to me. Cult like group rituals and yet it’s my fault for noticing.
As compared to Italian Christianity, which totally does not have cult like group rituals.
What is italian christianity? Do you mean catholicism?
If you do then, no it doesnt have cult like behaviour. Lots of catholics, lutherans, calvinists, hugenots, zwinglinists and anglicans dont even get near cultish. If they wouldnt tell you, at none of their behaviours would you notice which religion if at all they are a part off. Its not an every day talk topic like with the free churches, prespetarians, mega churches, quakers aso in the US.
The church is getting constantly mocked in media. On good german media that had a focus on it is “Das kleine Arschloch” (the little asshole). Media that mocks church, jesus, or anything religiouse is often banned in america. The catholic church is openly being critisised for their money hording, pedophilia, hiding CSAs and their priests owning CP occasionally.
Churches are empty.
A german joke is: “How do you get rid of your local priest? Show up to church. Gives him a heart attack from someone suddenly being there”
it IS weird, and mostly heretical.
mostly heretical.
What isn’t?
If evil is being defeated, why is she still alive?
Because she is a different being than the being that was defeated.
She’s still a little bitch.
What an ugly woman
I think she should really start going by her biological sex instead of just identifying as a woman. That’s a badly built butch body if it’s an actual biological woman
I’m a cis woman but it’s comments like these that made me feel ashamed to be tall in high school. That may have been well-intentioned sarcastic transphobia, but when you poke fun at celebrities for their bodies, it’s only other people who hear.
Can we not? MTG could look like Sofia Vergara and she’d still be an ugly piece of shit. All commenting on her appearance does here is make decent people feel bad about themselves. Transphobia doesn’t suddenly become acceptable because you’re trying to turn it back on somebody evil.
I didn’t mean it to sound transphobic I meant it to missgender her the way she does to others: https://www.newsweek.com/marjorie-taylor-greene-misgenders-sarah-mcbride-congress-transgender-bathroom-ban-1988071
I think that’s fair. So that she could understand how it feels.
Also the badly built body thing was a reference to another time she was called out.
She wouldn’t care, most likely, you know who will care though? Women and trans women, some of which have already heard similar things hurled at them as insults.
Don’t try to use transphobia “for good” it won’t work and only harm the people around you.
Exhibit A of “bigotry is totally funny if we don’t like the victim”
I wonder if there’s a country or group of countries that will save Americans that are still decent human beings?
The way things are going, it’s getting harder and harder to see the good in America. I know not everyone is like what we see in the news, but there’s clearly enough to allow things to keep happening. I feel sorry for the regular people in America.
Yeah, I feel like I have to add in a disclaimer now whenever I tell someone I’m American. ‘Oh and btw Fuck Trump!’ lol
It is a very slim minority of very loud people who are actually evil, who have inveigled a regrettably large number of people who are not necessarily evil but are short slighted and easily manipulated into acting against their own self interest.
Being an American does kinda suck these days though as a result.
I never understand this view because most people I know are absent from any thought aside from consuming and materialistic escapism. Basically no one I know doesn’t support trump.
Ignorance is evil. It doesn’t take education to be a basic decent human being.
The revolution will not be televised
Having seen how the world treats Russian citizens, no.
But that is later, after things get worse. Fur now there are plenty of options for those who have money, or are brave, or talented or some combination. Everyone else here will suffer through it
I have no money or talent (according to the mainstream) so I guess I’ll just got fuck myself
There are dozens of us, I’m thinking when it gets really bad I’ll start a twelve step support group on how to deal with the fallout
That’s a good idea
I’m guessing that this is pretty straightforward politicking. A lot of the populist-right crowd in the US has historically been adamantly Protestant. Catholics were also a big issue for the KKK, too.
Her district is Georgia’s 14th:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgia's_14th_congressional_district
Hmm.
Yeah, it’s mostly not very Catholic, but Whitfield County is a notable exception. Gordon County, which is also somewhat-Catholic, isn’t in her district.
https://www.dot.ga.gov/DriveSmart/MapsData/Documents/Statewide/Counties_Map_122812.pdf
https://i.imgur.com/fpor3gq.png
Looks like Whitfield County has a population of 103,687, so maybe an eighth of her constituents.
https://www.politico.com/2024-election/results/georgia/
And it looks like that county had the weakest support for Trump of all the counties in her district (though it was still pretty overwhelmingly pro-Trump, 71.9% in favor of Trump versus 27.5% for Harris).
EDIT: Might irritate some of the MAGA crowd elsewhere in the US, though. And probably not the sort of thing that’d go over well with the right in Poland…
I’d love to know because I want to GTFO of here asap
Quite tasteless but it is MTG.
If anything he was “rescued”, or “promoted to headquarters” if you will. Because he was too good a man for these times ahead, and sadly had been getting weaker for a while. And the world is morally poorer for his departure.
I don’t view the Vatican as the shining beacon of light it wants to be, but Pope Francis was a great Pope, who more than talking, walked the walk and lead by example. Loved by catholics and even people of other religions, as well as many atheists/agnostics. A unifying force of good.
Yet before he went he made sure his last big act was to admonish Vance and the Trump administration. Good on him.
I wonder what the Catholic Trumpers here in Louisiana will think of her saying that?
I’m gonna have to ask some.
Don’t worry, cognitive dissonance will save them as usual
You lost me at “cognitive”.
Catholic Trumpers agree with her. They hated this pope.
Then they arent real catholics
This.
I’ve been Catholic all my life. How can you be Catholic but oppose the pope, one of the central parts of the religion? It means you don’t trust God’s judgment, therefore you lack faith, therefore you’re not Catholic.
Oh right, they don’t think.
As the old joke goes, “how do you call a Catholic that disagrees with the Pope? A Protestant”.
Or orthodox :3
Its always infuriating me when people “pick and choose” from religion. Either you take the whole deal or nothing. In this case, the pope, the direkt link and voice of god on earth. If you defy the pope, you defy god and say you know better.
I was raised catholic, and what made me leave was people like that, normal and priests of all levels. No you arent better just because you hold a spiritual position, no your “sinns” arent less evil, no god likes all people no matter their sexuality ethnicity gender identity aso otherwise he, to their own logic, wouldnt have created it!
My favorit joke is “so why did they kill jesus?” He said “be kind to another, help the poor, dont be greedy, love another, and spread love”
Well said and I’m stealing that joke at the end lol
Yeah, the thing a lot of Catholics in America don’t wanna look at is the fact that we very well might see another schism between American Catholicism and Roman Catholicism within our lifetimes, possibly within a decade. The American church has been drifting REALLY far from the RCC, and not in the good ways.
Not just Catholics It’s All American Christians. American Christianity is just moving extremely far away from its traditional roots, be that Catholic or Protestant or what have you. Of course I would argue the real Schism seems to be between Christians and Christ.

Just saying.
He was gasp … Nice to people sometimes?!
Georgia elects horrible people: news at 11 (but only the executive branch approved news agencies, everyone else has been locked out to preserve alternative fact distribution)
Because he spoke Spanish? Wow, that’s racist.
