    The true blue motherfuckers will spin it to defend the rich. I tell my dad to sell his shit and give it to the poor if you want to get to heaven. He just tells me Jesus didn't mean everything. Plus he drives around on Thanksgiving handing out Panda Express to houseless people.

      American Christianity has been so thoroughly twisted to support the institution of slavery that appealing to "classic Christian values" is a complete waste of time with them. If any of that mattered, Trump wouldn't be enjoying steady 70%-90% approval ratings from them throughout his presidency. Trump is almost the perfect icon of everything the teachings of Christ are meant to repudiate, yet no American Christians see it like that. Why? Because Trump promises to make the country a white supremacist wonderland for them, which is the actual religion they believe in.

          PresterJohnBrown is my chapo character where I play a mysterious abolitionist in the far east with an army of antifa at my side, perpetually marching towards Christendom to save it from itself.
