    Well if she does she’d probably be better at any religion than her husband who converted to catholicism then insisted on picking fights with a dying pope, killing him.

    I think some people are forgetting something.

    She’s a woman. She’s not white. Her religion is basically meaningless to these creatures.

    This is part of the show. She is less than Vance to MAGA. Because she is a woman, and not white, the ultimate proof of her subservience to Vance is if she ALSO converts officially to (whatever faith he calls himself 🤮).

    This is to show MAGAts that they can claim non-white women as their own property and make them do what they want. From what I understand from my Hispanic friends is that this is already underway with ICE kidnappings. Women, in particular, are separated. I can’t speak Spanish, so I can’t actually verify the translation.

    The suspicion is that the “white replacement fear” is being fought by sterilizing the kidnapped women, or forcing them to bear white children (the traditional Nazi way too! Rape.) . The men are incarcerated, deported, or otherwise removed.

    I can verify that publicly posting ICE locations on Facebook or mentioning antifacism will get your account banned and related accounts flagged as “suspected to have links to a known terrorist organization.”

    It should be fairly obvious that while it might be non-white women today, tomorrow it will be white women.

    Of course any white man like me that speaks of the horrors and continues to dissent will undoubtedly be targeted. There is ONE single weapon that is effective in the war on fascism. Knowledge.

    Jesus christ, how much therapy are these kids gonna need? They’ve already had to watch their father apologize to fucking white supremacists for his wife not being white during the campaign, if they haven’t already I’m sure they’re destined to hear incessantly about him fucking couches, this shit now, and I’m sure somewhere around 500k other things I’ve already forgotten about by now

      I saw a meme once that put it better than I ever could:

      Some people just need a high five. In the face. With a chair.

    So people want him to (1) believe that the Catholic faith is essential for eternal salvation but also (2) not care whether or not his wife is Catholic? That wouldn’t make any sense. Of course any Catholic who cares about his loved ones is going to hope that they convert to Catholicism.

      No one thinks he believes #1. Like most Republicans, he’s very obviously not a true believer or he’d be acting differently regarding doing good for people, not just waving the Bible around when he does evil. Two actual Popes have said what he’s involved in is wrong.

        Hence “join Christianity” instead of “convert.” It’s about being in the right club to these people.

        Au contraire

        These people believe

        They have faith

        Which means their critical thinking skills are underdeveloped and they will believe any fucking thing their in-group believes

          Their religion is white supremacy. Vance only figured that out after he got married, though.

      Marrying someone in the hopes that you will convert them is a dick move.

        He married her and he wants her to convert, but there’s no reason to think that he married her for the purpose of converting her.

            Thats contrary to the basis of Islam and Christianity, which explicitly have always been about conversions.

            Christians believe their God cares about and wants them to try to save everyone, they believe following the Christian God is the path to everlasting happiness, that’s where the evangelism comes from- even when it takes a cruel form it is at least in theory a good intent(in practice of course often not).

            Muslims believe their God wants all people to recognize and submit to the truth of himself, and that spreading this message is a duty.

              Who gives a damn what the folks being assholes think, I don’t think I’m in the wrong for wanting to commit a wee bit of genocide on the Mormons and Seventh Day Adventists doesn’t mean I ain’t a right grade A bastard for it.
