This is some cult bullshit. Build a narrative that paints large segments of society as irredeemably monstrous, say good followers morally must not engage, except with hostility, that's obligatory. This is a toxic mindset incompatible with a functioning civil society.
It's not a high bar to cross my dude. Ain't asking for them to become communist soldiers at my command. I'm simply asking that you don't call my wife and friends existence a crime against humanity and God himself. Thems is fighting words boy.
That is reasonable, but I think the OP post can easily be interpreted much more broadly than that.
The probblem being that your wife and friends insist in ONE TRUE GOD and that only they can speak for "him" and that anyone who believes differently, as well as black and brown human beings, as well as disabled human beings, trans and gay human beings; human beings from beyond their empire's imposed borders, and so so many other human beings are all called "a crime against humanity" by yr wife, friends and you. Enjoy your bubble, the rest of us want nothing to do with you fascist wierdos and all your rightwing authoritarian violence.
