Jews aren’t involved in a widespread conspiracy to control American society, but you know who is?

Rich white evangelical christians.

Some books about the subject:

The Family by Jeff Sharlet

Dark Money by Jane Mayer

American Crusade by Andrew L. Seidel

Takeover by Noah Feldman

Also look up Seven Mountains Ideology, the idea that the Church should control the “seven mountains” of society, those being:

• Media
• Government
• Education
• Economy
• Religion
• Art and Entertainment
• Family

What’s weird is that anyone who grew up in an evangelical household knows this isn’t even a secret. It’s very loudly and openly the agenda.

I didn’t say it was a secret conspiracy. There’s no need for secrecy when nobody (so far) is trying to stop you or hold you accountable.

More books on the subject:

Jesus and John Wayne by Kristin Kobes Du Mez

The Power Worshippers by Katherine Stewart

Taking America Back For God by Andrew L. Whitehead and Samuel L. Perry

The Founding Myth, Seidel’s first book, is specifically about how Christian Nationalists lie about American history and founding principles to justify their religious takeover.

I also recommend the Youtube channel Belief It Or Not for videos and podcasts about evangelical christianity and christian nationalism.

Extra relevant now that an open and life-long Christofascist is Speaker of the House.

[id: ~7 hot air balloons:

1) bottom left corner is a white dog’s head with a brown spot on its eye and it’s tongue lolling

2) bottom center is a multicolor pattern kind of staggered

3) all the way right (half out of the picture is a black balloon with horns

4 & 5) top right are a yellow dog with white/grey markings and hidden halfway behind the dog is a yellow balloon with some kind of advertising

6) to the left of the dog and yellow ballon is a black ballon with brighter colors “dripping” down in streaks

7) a balloon with green on top and bottom with white in the middle and a red dragon (?) in the white part

/end id]

We made a trip to Albuquerque to see the eclipse and it happens that the balloon festival was around the same time, so we went for that too. It’s an amazing spectacle and worth it if you’re in the area (I’d even make a trip for it, but the local we talked to said we had the benefit of a light crowd, possibly because lots of people planned to attend on the day of the eclipse).

@becausegoodheroesdeservekidneys I appreciate everything I’ve learned from you and I don’t think I would’ve noticed this balloon without your influence. Thank you!

Look I know Hozier’s not really a “cares about commercial success” kind of artist (at least not beyond being successful enough to make a living off it) but I just think “But The Wages” would absolutely be a top 40 hit in multiple countries if he released it now

Seriously tho listen to it (song starts at about 1:25 mark)

obi-wann-cannoli:

“I never knew what sad work the reading of old letters was before that evening, though I could hardly tell why. The letters were as happy as letters could be - at least those early letters were. There was in them a vivid and intense sense of the present time, which seemed so strong and full, as if it could never pass away, and as if the warm, living hearts that so expressed themselves could never die, and be as nothing to the sunny earth.”

Chapter 5, ‘Old Letters’

You! American fan of foreign or otherwise un-American media! Are you aware of the nuances and cultural differences that are portrayed in that media and have an understanding that you as an outsider looking in should be careful with the lenses you analyze that media in because you have a different perspective that is not catered to?

You get it

there’s only one thing worse than an awful book, and that is an awful book with ONE tantalisingly compelling element

an awful book is nothing. You can put it down and never think of it again. An awful book with ONE idea that perfectly captures your imagination can chip your soul out through your eyes with every sloppy syntax error and gaping plot hole while you scream, unable to look away
