It’s also because historically, theocracies
Don’t have to appeal to what is right or logical or even remotely sane cuz they can just say
“God said so”
And commit all sorts of atrocities and use cultic mind control to get ppl to go along.

Absolute power, corrupts absolutely

Yeah it does
Fascism is not just governmental
It’s also cultural

Bratty Kat @brattykat.bsky.social · 10h

It’s fascism
Which Covid definitely accelerated

There is a strong correlation between pandemics and fascism, historically

You ever notice how there are like 3 groups of tattoo ppl

1st group, strategically plans their tattoos, they are very artistic

The next group gets tattoos that have meanings but are just here and there

Then there is the ppl who look like they scribble on themselves with a tattoo gun

Bratty Kat @brattykat.bsky.social · 12h

I always hate watch those with delight 😂😂

Right wingers are not stupid
They PLAY stupid so they can manipulate stupid ppl

But they are insanely evil

If RW politicians and media says something absolutely false
Don’t assume they are ignorant
They are lying and manipulating

True evil looks like stupidity
Don’t underestimate them

Bratty Kat @brattykat.bsky.social · 1d

They know they are lying

You gotta go on the offense, not the defense

“You are bold faced lying cuz wanna starve children, underpaid workers, &disabled ppl so you can funnel that money into more profits for Billionares who don’t need more money
You are trying to manufacture consent to end SNAP

Sara Luterman @slooterman.bsky.social · 1d

You can’t even use SNAP to buy a hot rotisserie chicken unless you live in a state with a special waiver.

ROB SCHMITT: People are using SNAP benefits to get their nails done, to get their weaves and their hair. This is a really ugly program.

SEN. RON JOHNSON: That program needs to be dramatically reformed.

What they are doing is manufacturing consent to scrap the program

You can’t fight them with
“Oh you are so outta touch”

you gotta call their BS

“You are lying because you wanna end the program to funnel that money into more corporate tax loopholes”

You gotta keep 100
To defeat the propaganda

Bratty Kat @brattykat.bsky.social · 1d

They lie like that cuz RWers eat outta their hands, every foolish thing they say.

They know it’s not true

Bratty Kat @brattykat.bsky.social · 1d

Good luck
I hope you feel better
