Donald Trump sparked fury among his MAGA base by sharing an AI-generated image depicting himself as Jesus on social media, moments after launching a scathing attack on Pope Leo XIV

I voted for Trump in 2016 . . . because I was lied to and I fell for it

    I’d rather they burned themselves

    They’ll keep voting republican

    It’s a part of their identity

    It’s how they compensate for not having real personalities

    I literally don’t believe this happened.

    That’ll be the day.

    Is this satire?

    Also, I thought MAGA’s official stance on the Pope was that Catholicism was “woke” now lol

    I can’t wait for the Trump religion. In this timeline it is totally happening.

      That’s a really weird metaphor. It doesn’t really make any sense.

      There’s a well known metaphor about burning your own boats so that you’re unable to retreat. But, those aren’t lifeboats.

      If you’re talking about not letting people get rescued, why not “sink the lifeboats”? Setting them on fire would be annoying, but a fire would be easy to put out if the boats are out at sea. There’s water all around. The article seems to be more about not allowing people who have abandoned the sinking ship to come on board. So, why not just “ignore the lifeboats”. You don’t have to approach them and set them on fire. You can just refuse to rescue the people in those lifeboats and leave them floating out at sea.

            I know driftglass has made his enemies, especially among never-trumpers and the MSM, but I doubt it’s extended to Lemmy, LOL. Maybe it’s a blogspot thing?

                Yeah, the domain is blogspot with a dot com. If you search driftglass blogspot and burn the lifeboats, he’s written about it (and probably so has his wife, bluegal) and talked about it on their podcast several times over the years in regards to the teabagger movement and the offramps given to Republicans so they can temporarily claim to be “independents”, and then go right back to voting Republican.

                This blog was from 2019.

    The stupid MAGA shits would vote for and protect their pedo, felon, rapist and racist loser. They are like the hard core Nazis post WW II.

      Corporate consolidation of media, systematic dismantling of the education system, decades of red-scare rhetoric and crackdowns on left-populism, corporate capture of both parties and the state-funded spread of radical Evangelical churches.

      This has been the general plan for decades, ever since the New Deal and Civil Rights movement, to unwind every inch of progress ever made since the abolition of slavery. The Epstein Class will take us all kicking and screaming back into the darkness of unenlightenment, a new dark age of unspeakable horrors.
