More threats as Donald Trump says decision on ‘massive attack’ against Iran is close - Anyone who understands the history of Shia Islam knows that suffering and revenge are core tenants underlying the faith. That’s been the case since the battle of Karbala in 680 CE (Muharram 10, 61AH). These kinds of threats from an ill-informed #TrumpRegime only reinforce Iran’s determination and resolve. Now if #Trump follows through with his threats to, in his words, “obliterate” the country, its culture and infrastructure, he’ll be forcing the American #Military to commit #WarCrimes. Is he backed into a corner? Of course he is. I should add that nobody outside hardliners in #Iran approves of the horribly repressive and murderous #theocracy running the country, but two wrongs don’t make a right as they say… https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/jul/23/trump-says-he-is-close-to-decision-on-largest-yet-attack-on-iran #IranWar

I have consumed ALL the broadcast TV.. since the 1960s, and I am only now realizing/lamenting now how much all of it's embedded/inherent/chronic 'isms' have shaped and helped lay the groundwork for the whole 'Murca'/MAGA #facist #theocracy nightmare we are living through now.
There are exceptions- but so much of that crap is just dreck that feeds the worst instincts....
Anyway, glad you have some 'yoots' in your world... and thanks for the pushback & reply...

@rssbot perhaps it's time for #Atheists to not be nice? We're losing the war against #Theocracy in the US

The problem with #Theocracy is that it tells people what they have to think and that is going to fail. It is #DOA. #God doesn't make anybody do anything. God does not restrict #Itself. The correct understanding of what is happening provides more than enough room for tolerance.

There is a latent deep strain of religious fanaticism in this, our culture; it is rooted in our history and it has broken out many times in the past. It is with us now; there has been a sharp rise in strongly evangelical sects in this country in recent years, some of which hold beliefs theocratic in the extreme, anti-intellectual, anti-scientific, and anti-libertarian.

Trump sponsors New Apostoic Reformation pro-theocracy "Rededicate 250" event on DC's Mall
On Sunday the 17th of May, a huge crowd of Christian nationalists, other fundamentalists packed onto DC's National Mall for what was billed as an all-day prayer vigil. It was reportedly organized directly or indirectly by the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) and sponsored by Trump. Trump himself was playing golf, no doubt considering all this Christian extremist shit too boring to pull him away from his golf game. Still, this amounts to an official endorsement from the Office of the President for the NAR.
US House speaker Mike Johnson claimed the event "transcends politics" but the speakers were reported by a Reddit poster to not surprisingly be hardcore "MAGA Christians."
Remember that NAR promotes the totalitarian "Seven Mountains Mandate" concept that religion should dominate and control family, religion, education, media, arts/entertainment, business, and of course government.
A Matthew D. Taylor said on Substack (not linking to Substack due to Nazi issues) that Rededicate 250 was the NAR's "Crowning achievement" to date.
The billionaires behind the larger theocratic push in the US tend to fund and follow the NAR, which itself is a extremist offshoot of the Pentacostals. Some other churches notably the Catholics have called them out as "heretical" and inauthentic as they push the concept that people alive today can become apostles.
As I was nowhere near this mess, I have no idea if most of the attendees of the march were even aware that the NAR was the muscle behind this march. Lots of other fundamentalists however are chugging the Kool-Aid NAR is pouring at least so far as politics is concerned.
The Southern Poverty Law Center once called NAR: "he greatest threat to American democracy that most people have never heard of," as much of the work is pulling the strings from behind the scenes. Despite doctrinal differences deemed toxic by may old-style Baptists and similar fundamentalists, the powerful Southern Baptist Convention has endorsed the NAR on at least one occasion.
The video was liberated from an extreme-right Twitter poster, shortened to remove a Christian propaganda clip, and cropped down to cut out a racist logo. It is valuble intel, and shows how many people still support Trump and want an all-white theocratic successor state to the former US nominal democracy.

'If I knew this could be the outcome, I still wouldn’t have given my son the vaccine,' she said, citing the misleading scare line publicly shared by Kennedy and Trump that children today receive too many shots."
