    this is the kind of take you get from people who literally never leave the internet. a man doing an extreme act of self-sacrifice for a cause he believed in (and a cause that is plainly correct)? to the average person he’s a hero, but to the internet-addled liberal he’s a mentally ill tankie

        You forgot about capitalist, supply side American Jesus comrade! You can see him on the billboards alongside the highways. A tall, bearded, long haired white guy who helped build the president’s estate! Both the motive and the conscience of the sinner due to God’s all knowing nature! The force behind the army and the alt right! Infinitely kind is his allowance for everyone to participate in capitalism!

        The only time Christ used violence was against money changers, it’s just the biblically correct position

          I mean, non-theology pilled christians can’t easily answer you how self immolation for your truth is different from praying in the whatever garden before going to be crucified. Jesus knew he would die, he was afraid and he still did it, difference is negligible

            In the US they tend to be so indoctrinated on the ideology of rugged individualism (owe nothing to society, thus owed nothing) that concepts like martyrdom are just meaningless words they read in religious text. Extremely ironic because it’s a concept that is near universal to all religions.
