Arguably, "so-called" accuses them of not deserving the label, and is thus if anything a denial of the fact that many mainstream churches, and the words actually in the Bible, actually do contribute to the problem.
I would say that it's not the Bible, but rather interpretations of it. Regardless, there will always be cases where even a "perfect" example of a (Christian) will be at odds with the standards of "the world".

White people refusing to apologize for racism don't realize how douchey that is. When someone's dog dies, the first thing you say is "I'm so sorry for your loss", even though you didn't kill the dog yourself. So why is it so hard to say "I'm sorry for white racism" even if you think you've never been guilty of it yourself? Why is it so important to you that your government doesn't apologize either?
 

wonko the sane?

You may test that assumption at your convinience.

Because to those people: apologizing is for the weak. You aren't the pinnacle of your culture and society if you aren't outright and shamelessly exploiting everyone and everything around for your own gain. Racism isn't wrong: it's literally just eliminating competition for scarce resources. Admitting you have a problem, then trying to atone for it: well, that's for democrats and beta cucks.

Really? The Supreme Court is considering a precedent which would allow companies to sue workers for "economic damage" when the workers go on strike?

This truly is the shittiest timeline. But, you know ... her E-mails.

Anyone else read The Pelican Brief? I do wonder how much more provocations it will take before someone takes that road.

A Trump-appointed federal judge in Texas has ruled against the Biden administration’s health care protections for LGBTQ people.

President Joe Biden has been applying the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in Bostock v. Clayton County – which made anti-LGBTQ discrimination illegal in the workplace – to other areas such as education and health care.

In Bostock, the Supreme Court found that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which bans workplace discrimination “on the basis of sex,” applies to LGBTQ people because it is impossible to discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity without taking sex into account.

Well then. Let's see how far this SCOTUS wants to go in terms of placing itself on the wrong side of history.
Alito and the other extremists are smart enough to understand their place in history. The moment they leave their precedents will be overturned yet again. All they've done is buy their particular brand of extremists a decade or two at the price of lives they consider unimportant. They'll go to their grave knowing that, happy that they did good work.

The death of Obergefell is not an "if," it's a WHEN.

And for those who didn't hear about it, while hearing arguments today Justice Alito decided it was a good time to make a joke about black children in KKK uniforms and imply that a fellow sitting justice is having an affair using popular website "Ashley Madison".

Stay classy.

Their actions in a series of pending cases, reaching out for issues before they’ve been aired in lower courts and taking precipitous steps on culture war dilemmas, demonstrate that they will continue to defy norms and the usual judicial bounds.

“We are a court of law, not policymakers,” Justice Neil Gorsuch admonished his colleagues in late December, as he dissented from the majority’s latest incursion on immigration policy at the southern border. Gorsuch’s words were not without some irony as he usually joins with his conservative allies moving aggressively on the law.

Liberal justices had warned last June when the majority reversed Roe v. Wade that it had other precedents in its sights. “No one should be confident that this majority is done with its work,” the dissenters wrote.

We'll see where 'cold feet syndrome' gets them. Trump's judges were put there for a reason and if they don't deliver I'm sure there will be consequences. Even if they can't be removed I'm sure there are other parts of their life that can be made more difficult.
