The comments by US House representative Tim Walberg of Michigan drew condemnation from progressive political quarters, including from some who expressed disbelief that a former Christian pastor would advocate for what they called the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.

WWJD: Love thy brother. Nuke thy neighbor.

Christians are fucked in the head.

Not only that, but nuke the region that was the home to Jesus.

End-of-world evangelicals want the world to end. Global pollution, climate change, human rights, et al. don’t matter because rapture or some crazy shit like that.

Imagine being a genocidal monster and genuinely thinking God is going to come and save you for being good. If he came, he would take one look at you, charge up 2 million volts of electricity from the sky at your location and then smite the ever-loving shit out of you into fine ash.

Genuinely sanguine. Please sit down and think about what you just said, because that’s genocide denial at best.

A lot of citizens also say that. Why do Americans think their election is an Angel vs satan. It’s just bad vs worse.

I don’t think anyone who says “genocide joe” agrees with what Joe is doing quietly nor what Tim Walberg is saying out loud.

you haven’t encountered very many actual leftists, have you?

edit: you’re a lot closer to being one of those republicans you hate so much than any leftist who wants to hold both of your war-mongering parties accountable for their role in a genocide btw

God sometimes when I read stuff like this as a post I reflexively down vote because I hate it so much until I remember it’s just a post calling attention to someone being a piece of shit and not agreeing with them. I up voted again to fix it lol
