If you're American and you didn't vote for Clinton in 2016, this is on you. You were warned that this would happen and you didn't care.
Trump judge upholds Don't Say Gay law because bullying is "a fact of life" - LGBTQ Nation
"It is simply a fact of life that many middle school students will face the criticism and harsh judgment of their peers," wrote the judge.www.lgbtqnation.com
There is a significant difference between "Ha ha! You suck at math" and "My god told my parents that you aren't human". Driving people to suicide is NOT bullying, it is murder.
It's the same way that Christ espoused peace, forgiveness, and love for your fellow man, while so-called Christians scream hate, intolerance, and calls to war on anyone different.
More and more, I've seen right-winger tough guys cite this as their new gospel:
“Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times.”
And the weak men of the right wing have created these hard times, so I guess it checks out.
Of course, they don't think they're the weak men in that equation. They all think they're the rugged individualists who bootstrap themselves through life while listening to Joe Rogan.
Fixed it for you. Not all people, of any ethnicity, religion or other such group, etc are all the same.
As a Christian - no. No you didn't fix it.
Firstly because the some was already implied with "so-called". That was a grace given to those of us who don't have our heads shoved so far up our own asses we're tasting the Silver they paid Judas.
But also because, again speaking as a Christian...we own those that do scream hate, bigotry, and intolerance. We own them because they have a platform - a large platform. And while there's plenty being done within the Christian community to combat this (Hell the United Methodist Church is experiencing a full blown schism event over this), we still need to own the harm our fellowship as a whole has done.
While Christ may have said let not the left hand know what the right is doing when it came to charity, when it comes to reconciliation and healing we MUST acknowledge the hurt committed - committed deliberately I might add. The whole body of Christ doesn't get to backhand someone to the ground with their right hand while the left hand offers them a way back to their feet. Christ taught on that too. We must cut off the right hand that offers such offense. Until we do that fully, we have to accept our own contribution to continued pain and injustice.
For my part, instead of insisting "I'm not with them!" I use the shame of being associated with such people to drive me to demand my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ be better.
As a Christian myself, I've often seen "so called (insert group here)" to represent ALL of the aforementioned group being discussed (online), especially Christians. If you didn't mean that, then my apologies and thanks for the clarification.
