  • Google search “Twitter Hate Speech”. Everyone and their mom has been reporting on the increase in hate speech at Twitter since Musk took over. Of course, he waits to sue until a small non-profit comes along, albeit one with a stellar reputation, whose resources he can exhaust in courts, which will count as a “win” in the eyes of his worshipers.

    I can see it now, “Musk defeats liberal beta SJW cucks, a decisive blow for free speech.”

    Dumb meme. Assumes that Christianity is nothing more than Job, Jonah, David & Goliath, etc. and not the single-most scrutinized historical and cultural institution ever. The fact of the matter is, most of the book is practical, or an attempt at practically. Noah’s Ark is a fairy tale, but Paul of Tarsus wasn’t, and his gospel is perfectly mundane, offering prescriptions for life that made sense in his time, even if we see how clearly immoral they are some 1700 years later.

    The Bible is maybe 10% parable. That’s the fairy tales. And, if you knew them, I think you’d be happy in a world where those stories are all the Christians live by. Unfortunately, the other 90%, much of which speaks with authority and/or makes “common sense” arguments, flawed as they are, that are enough to convince most people with a monkey brain, let alone one belonging to a child. But, I digress…

    There is no God, Jesus is not the Lord, and the Holy Ghost can eat a bag of dicks. We all get it. But believing it’s all fairy tales is naive and lazy, and is as bad as thinking Noah put two of every animal on a boat.
