I think that you can learn from the (well-deserved) roasting you get here - I mean that honestly. we all make mistakes, the key is to take the lesson to heart

I know a little bit about it because one of my best friends is also a convert - that's why I recognized the ritual three refusals thing, too (: I am also a member of a religion (Satanism) that does not proselytize. I wish no religion did; they should stand on their own merits

I'm not sure if it's still the case, but you used to have to take classes to convert to Catholicism, too (my mom had to to marry my dad in the 70s)
this is it, the core realization that needs to spread. they will ALL tear gas your mom. Democrat, Republican, Libertarian - and believe you me, if socialists get into power to establish a "worker's State" and you act up, they'll tear gas your mom, too

you could have gone with Luke 22:36 which is a *direct* analogue (or Matthew 10:34-36). like most Christians, your understanding of your own holy writ is embarrassingly bad

an-caps are a small (and despised!) faction of anarchists for good reason
you are at best a minarchist; in actuality, just an edgy capitalist
@jorymicah
I'm not a Zionist - I stand for a Free Palestine and oppose all imperialism. but this you've just become a frightening example of the current conflict radicalizing people into anti-Semitism, which inevitably will lead to a form of fascism or soft ethno-nationalism.
had to unfriend and block someone today who's moved from anti-genocide to anti-Semitism. it really bummed me out until I realized a few things. 1) I'm not here to people-please 2) I won't *ever* call for mass deportations 3) communists often do and have no problem with it

you seriously need to do some reading on this subject, i.e. one (1) book

many (not most, but many) white supremacists are Zionists, actually, because they view Israel as the "Jewish ethno-state" where they will send American Jews

an understanding of real life politics teaches you that authoritarianism is a cathedral of human suffering built on a foundation of lies, whether it wears red paint or not
it's time for a variation on my recurring feature: "Which is Shittier: AI Art Propaganda Made by Mormons or AI Art Propaganda Made by Communists or Fascists?"
I used to love yoga.
Did yoga on lunch breaks. Did yoga on retreats. Did yoga with friends.
I heard the warnings from some Christians, but I dismissed them because I really loved yoga. It was so relaxing! So delightful. I didn't want to give the warnings any credence because
