Reporters who don't understand evangelical End Times theology have no business reporting on American politics.

It's outright incompetence at this point
I am genuinely sick of seeing stuff like this--

The connection of Focus on the Family and the Air Force has been reported on

There is a history of evangelicals infiltrating the military but especially the Air Force https://twitter.com/HeerJeet/status/1348136129589956608?s=19
Literally every time I see a reporter expressing bewilderment at some supposedly inexplicable conservative political move

It's something to do with evangelicals and it's already been reported on

Years ago
This is pathetic

Reporters are either scared to report on evangelicals or they are too snobby to consider the Hick Religion to be a political threat, aka they are dipshits.

Or both
I don't what else to put it down to

We have had decades of this

Why are you all so bad at your jobs that you can't connect these very large, neon dots?
Maybe the Jacobin/Patron Left can unjam their heads from their asses long enough to do basic research into evangelicalism as a political force

Instead of idk... extolling transphobia as a good Comrade Praxis 😑
I just need everyone to PLEASE UNDERSTAND.

That just because evangelicals believe things that you think are "stupid"

That doesn't make them not a threat to you

The one thing literally has NOTHING to do with the other.
I don't even know how people can still even think at this late date

That the quality or reality of someone's dipshit beliefs matters when they have SHOWN YOU that they will enact violence in support of those beliefs
Yeah, it's fucking ding dang bullshit

It's also ding dang bullshit that these people have TOLD YOU REPEATEDLY

That they are willing to
K I L L for

And then they _have_
k i l l e d people over it

WHEN WILL YOU TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY??
Does it make you feel comfy that the branch of the American military that is responsible for the nukes

Has been infiltrated by violent religious extremists (evangelicals)?

Cause that is what has happened
It happened under your nose

While you were laughing at them

And there is still a complete lack of seriousness about these people

What is the level of violence you going to allow them to commit before you take them seriously??
I am genuinely starting to wonder if there is an upper limit

Is there a level of evangelical violence that would get the American public and the media to admit that Christianity is bad sometimes?

I really wonder
