I've never met right-wingers who were as openly racist as the ones I found on Voat and now Poal.

And I grew up in a very conservative household, went to a conservative church believed the Bible was inerrant and all that. I grew up in a conservative Christian community, and know many many people who are conservative Christians who are against racism. They are against racism because they believe it is against the Bible's teachings.

Then I go exploring online after seeing censorship on Reddit, and find outright racists who believe that black people are inferior and that the Jews are the reason for all the problems in the world.

I am trying to understand this group of people. Many of them seem non-Christian or atheist, but some self-identify as Christian.

I have a few questions:

  • Do you call yourself a Christian?
  • How many of you go to churches that believe/are fine with outright racism?
  • Do you simply hide your beliefs really well, mostly live in the South/areas where it is accepted, etc.?
  • Did you grow up with these beliefs, or did your ideas change later in life?

Thanks.

To me this sounds like medieval Christianity, or like old Catholicism. What type of Christian would you call yourself nowadays? Christian nationalist, fundamentalist, something like Westboro Baptist, etc?

Not a christian but just wondering why you think christianity needs to change to suit the 21st century? Either earlier christian movements had it right and we now have it wrong or vice versa. Why is a christianity that enforces a strict morality “old”? Is it consistent with scripture to flip over the money changers’ table and whip them or not?

You can always tell a reddit tier faggot because they bring up westboro Babtist. Reddit is practically obsessed with them. Outside reddit nobody knows or gives a fuck about them because they were a crew of irrelevant fundies until reddit made them relevant with their hate porn. Westboro made it ok for liberals to hate Christians, so it got pushed like heroine in those circles.

This sounds like the old “real Christianity has never been tried” bait.

I’m someone that’s interested in securing a future for my own children and theirs. That’s really 1000% of it. One that’s free of medical tyranny, self flagellation, racial strife, forced struggle sessions, and demonstrably failed dogma contrary to reality and previous teaching. To achieve that, some key demographics need to be dealt with. I didn’t make myself their problem, they came looking for me and my family. We’re open to ideas and suggestions, if you’ve found one that actually works.

Here what I have a problem with: that the major sources of immorality, degeneracy, and societal decay have commonalities. That the same guys saying pedophillia is ok are the same guys reminding ME that they aren’t white. You see the same names. Same faces. Same words overs and over again. I’m supposed to ignore this because “muh racism.” Just like I’m supposed to ignore interracial rape statistics or fbi crime data. The fbi isn’t on my side of the argument. Why do they keep providing me ammo in the debate?
