    The mainstream capitalist media around the globe talks nonstop about how a fascist was actually Jesus for days on end and people…know about it?! Truly perplexing stuff.

    Though a lot of Christian evangelicals think Africa is trapped in the “stone age” or whatever and don’t realise that these rural villages in Zimbabwe have electricity, and TVs and phones and internet. They legitimately think they are “tribal savages” who are like innocent naive children in desperate need of a white saviour to teach them about Jesus.

    If there’s even a single grain of truth to this I guarantee it’s only because of all the propaganda spread by evangelical missionaries in Africa over the last 30 or so years

      This explains why it is so important to shoot missionaries on sight.

      I mean it’s Rod Dreher and Zimbabwe. Guaranteed it’s a descendant of a rhodesian settler, of course those freaks are talking about kirk.

        Yeah this isn’t really surprising. It’s like saying white South Africans are talking about Charlie Kirk.

      even if the email is genuine “talking about it” could mean they were celebrating and the priest or Rod are simply omitting that for political purposes

    Just left Zimbabwe and everyone was talking about Elizabeth Warren. ‘Yoooo ya girl bro! That’s that heat we need for Trump!’ When you are getting talked about in Zimbabwe — you know it’s real.”

    I’ve mentioned something about this (Kirk’s death) to my grass-touching boomer friends and they were like “with shit he was saying no wonder someone popped him”

    Oh yeah? Well:

    Just left the barbershop and everyone was talking about Tyler Robinson. ‘That’s that heat we need for Kirk!’ When you are getting talked about in the barbershop — you know it’s real.

    Or maybe:

    I just a left a hipster coffee shop. It was packed with liberals, whispering amongst each other about what a commendable job Tyler Robinson did with Charlie Kirk this week in Utah – America is PROUD! 🇺🇸"

      I was at work when I announced that Charlie Kirk was dead, everyone stood up and cheered, my boss (wiping his tears of happiness away) presented me with a Powerade bottle full of this own piss and asked me to spread it all over Charlie’s grave for him. Then the CEO showed up and gave us all the rest of the day off (paid) and then even took us out to femboy hooters afterwards, which was running a special “Charlie Kirk” happy hour. America is truly healing.

    Talking about how if Charlie Kirk listened to the Wu-Tang Clan’s 1992 song “Protect Ya Neck” even once, he’d still be alive today.

    Rod Dreher has emailed himself again

    to his credit I think he faked this himself instead of asking an LLM to do it
