    Got to keep them Women in line. The American Taliban are alive and well and they have found a home in the MAGA terrorist organization.

            The Bolsheviks were definitely anti-capitalist and generally rejected religion.

            Today’s Republican party is indistinguishable from Al-Qaeda and the Taliban, except for the religion they promote and their headwear. They all want to see their countries adopt a theocratic government with their beliefs as the beliefs of the country as a whole.

        I’d refer to the xtian Taliban a lot on certain forums and I’d get butthurt reactions (and people trying to get my comment deleted or me banned) from the magabrained - one claim was that xtianity and the Taliban/Islam are diametrically opposed (lol). The other was the usual whining over the shorthand of “xtian”.

        What the xtianists don’t really seem to realize - or don’t want to acknowledge - is that they and the extremist Muslim are only separated by the most minor of doctrinal things that a lot of people simple don’t care about - whether Jesus is or is not the son of their god (the same god, by the way, since both are Abrahamic cults), or whether you eat bacon or not doesn’t really fucking matter if you plan on doing the same kinds of things to at-risk groups - trans, gays, women, etc - all in the name of the same god as the other group - again, which is the same exact god - Jehovah, Yahweh, Allah, all the same thing.

        Also, the shorthand of “xtian” comes from the xtians themselves, lol.

        The xtianists absolutely fucking hate it when this is pointed out to them. Again, all factual, they cannot refute it. That’s why they want it silenced.
