People are tribal. As more an Americans identify less with a religious identity, they replace their tribalism with a political identity.


And what happens when religious identity and positions are intertwined with politicians and policy? ie the Evangelicals


What about it? The point is the amount of people with strong religious identity is declining. Secular religion is the new wave.


Secular religion? Like worshipping a politician or political party?


Not necessarily, though it could be. Fervent, bordering on religiously zealous, adherence to a cause, belief or person.

To take it out of a political context, the increase in celebrity stan culture is an example. BTS Army, Swifties, Sussex Squad, BeyHive etc.


Yup.

Trump is a religion for his hardcore MAGA followers. They speak about him as if he's the messiah and a prophet. It's very similar to fervent religious adherents.


Religion? Then we have DEI, Climate Change and Woke. You can't even see it, can you?


These examples are two sides of the same coin. Same thing, but one side blindly idolizes Trump, the other blindly follows DEI/social justice/equity nonsense. Blind belief in these competing ideologies gives them a sense of belonging, direction, and purpose that would have previously been filled by religion.


You wouldn't think the equity stuff was nonsense if you were one of the people on the short end of the stick.


You wouldn't think of MAGA as a cult if you were one of the people trying to save America from ruin.


Ah, but here is the rub. MAGA are the ones who staged a coup. After that, you can complain about the left and their policies until the cows come home. No one who actually loves their country tries to overturn an election in a violent manner, particularly now, in hindsight, when we see the planners and plotters admitting it was all a lie. Shocking that you somehow still think it was a fake election and that the coup plotters are still patriots.


Yawn. You are trying to make this some competition and are missing the point. Still stuck of the belief rather than the behavior

No one who truly believes in justice, equity and inclusion would engage in massive destruction and looting of small businesses (many of which were owned by minorities). We could do this all day. You're just so caught in your bubble, you can't see past your own "righteousness".

Do you take pamphlets with you when you proslytize?

Just one of a million examples.


And the right has similar videos about climate change and DEI alarmism.

Yet you ignore the fundamentalism and evangelicalism rampaging through our country courtesy the Republican Party. Why is that, why do you seek to pretend that reality isn’t what it is?


NP - even accepting that religious identity remains more significant for people on the right, the observation seems to be that people on the left are behaving in ways that seem religious / tribal (e.g., the pressure to confirm viewpoint, shaming, ostracizing non-conformists). These are all “tribal” behaviors. Us v Them.


So it is tribal to be a person of color fighting for equal rights? or at least the right not to be shot by a cop in my bedroom?

GOP voters have shown you that yes, that’s tribal to them and no, it’s not worth an argument. You are less than them and your concerns about not getting blown away while sleeping are invalid.

Even average people that couldn't even describe the meaning of DEI know that Trump is a criminal.


Yes, average people love sitting through those useless DEI trainings at work...


Given the random harassment and attacks of American Jews because of what is happening in the middle east, or because of the right wing indoctrination of SOROS SOROS SOROS and Jewish Space Lasers, it seems clear we still need those trainings.


When the same people who are virulent proponents of those trainings and ideologies are also the ones cheering violence against Jews and even excusing Hamas? Very curious...

Yeah, exactly what we need more of.

Yup! Hit the nail on the head. Exactly why Trump did better in every demographic in 2020 relative to 2016 except for white men. Hmmm....

And you are missing the point. The people protesting Floyd's death were peaceful. There is evidence, based on charges, that the deaths and rioting that took place were instigated by right wingers. You are so caught up in your bubble, you didn't know that. I posted links already in this thread and you have chosen to ignore them.

Did they find any guns at the Capitol on J6? Don't organized coups involve guns and other weapons?

You can go to the Trump Lunatics storming the Capitol thread and see the various weapons, including guns, that were seized. Again, if you don't know that, then you need new sources of information.

Just like there is evidence that J6 was instigated by undercover agents from three letter deep state agencies and ANTIFA. You are so caught up in your bubble, you didn't know that.

See how this goes?


Show the proof what what you posted.

I showed my work.

You won't be able to because there is ZERO proof of ANTIFA involvement in J6 or any "deep state" instigation of J6 activities. There is proof of Trump cronies in positions of power influencing the activities of Law Enforement and Military on that day, however.

Secular religion? Like worshipping a politician or political party?


Not necessarily, though it could be. Fervent, bordering on religiously zealous, adherence to a cause, belief or person.

To take it out of a political context, the increase in celebrity stan culture is an example. BTS Army, Swifties, Sussex Squad, BeyHive etc.


Yup.

Trump is a religion for his hardcore MAGA followers. They speak about him as if he's the messiah and a prophet. It's very similar to fervent religious adherents.


Religion? Then we have DEI, Climate Change and Woke. You can't even see it, can you?


These examples are two sides of the same coin. Same thing, but one side blindly idolizes Trump, the other blindly follows DEI/social justice/equity nonsense. Blind belief in these competing ideologies gives them a sense of belonging, direction, and purpose that would have previously been filled by religion.


You wouldn't think the equity stuff was nonsense if you were one of the people on the short end of the stick.


You wouldn't think of MAGA as a cult if you were one of the people trying to save America from ruin.


Ah, but here is the rub. MAGA are the ones who staged a coup. After that, you can complain about the left and their policies until the cows come home. No one who actually loves their country tries to overturn an election in a violent manner, particularly now, in hindsight, when we see the planners and plotters admitting it was all a lie. Shocking that you somehow still think it was a fake election and that the coup plotters are still patriots.


Yawn. You are trying to make this some competition and are missing the point. Still stuck of the belief rather than the behavior

No one who truly believes in justice, equity and inclusion would engage in massive destruction and looting of small businesses (many of which were owned by minorities). We could do this all day. You're just so caught in your bubble, you can't see past your own "righteousness".

Do you take pamphlets with you when you proslytize?


And you are missing the point. The people protesting Floyd's death were peaceful. There is evidence, based on charges, that the deaths and rioting that took place were instigated by right wingers. You are so caught up in your bubble, you didn't know that. I posted links already in this thread and you have chosen to ignore them.


Just like there is evidence that J6 was instigated by undercover agents from three letter deep state agencies and ANTIFA. You are so caught up in your bubble, you didn't know that.

See how this goes?


Show the proof what what you posted.

I showed my work.

You won't be able to because there is ZERO proof of ANTIFA involvement in J6 or any "deep state" instigation of J6 activities. There is proof of Trump cronies in positions of power influencing the activities of Law Enforement and Military on that day, however.


You are posting from your "Bible" MSM and suggesting to atheists that this is the one true way. Then look in wonderment when they scoff at you.

So post something that isn't MSM that shows what Roy Epps did as you allege.
