>>110772145Great job buddy, now you've got Manicheans, Mithrasism and Gnosticism. If you thought Christendom was bad about browbeaitng you over sins of the flesh you haven't seen nothing yet. Enjoy a faith where the mere existence of eating, shitting and drinking is something you should feel shame about.
>>110772427"Spiritual but not religious" (Which is lazy bullshit which means 'I lack the discipline and commitment to a faith') is increasingly popular. I'd say that generally this is what defines people leaning left and a kind of Voltarian "If god did not exist we'd have to make him" cultural false christianity (Think "Deus Vulters". Much the worst notion of protestantism where just saying you believe is all that matters, not what you do) is popular on those who lean right.
>>110772526He's absolutely right. How is this wrong for the popular culture today? What is popular culture today? It's woke, it's progressive, it's defined by Hollywood and the mainstream. You can be left-leaning and recognize this, it's delusional to think liberalism is still rebellious and the counterculture today. It is not 1985 anymore. It's not 1965.
>>110772642It is a representation of real life. You saw what happened when states went against the prevailing culture on trans rights. They had multinational corporations boycott their state, they had every single public figure except for conservative politicians speak out against them. Sorry bud but when General fucking electric, the NBA and Apple are supporting your causes you ain't the scruffy rebel and downtrodden underdogs. You're ascendant when huge companies align with you and nobody but bible-thumping jackasses align with the opposition.
