@beinlibertarian Slightly higher than median income for the place they represent if they want more income, raise the standard of living for your district.
@rovabtw Because explaining why I'm not ok isn't worth my time more often than not. I always feel obligated to explain myself if I tell someone I'm not ok.

Christians mustn’t hate Jews and/or idolize their skin color.
Just spoke with another brother in Christ who started down the Jew-hate white supremacy road and then by the grace of God, repented, and rejoined the narrow road.
He explained that he began listening to The Stone Choir podcast, and slowly but surely he began to change (for the worst).
His heart had grown darker and darker with suspicion, bitterness, pride until one day he realized he he had to stop listening to the podcast. He had to, as he described it, “stop imbibing the poison”.
The fruit of the spirit had been replaced by bitter fruit born of the father of lies.
To any brothers in Christ who resonates with my friend’s experience.
Please REPENT!
Put the podcasts away for a season.
Spend extended time in the word and in the prayer.
Talk to your pastor about the issues you’re thinking through.
Get off X and touch grass.
And if you’re just a guy who is questioning some historical narratives and doing a bunch of reading and research about the PWC and various historical perspectives, AND your life is filled the fruit of the Spirit and you harbor no ill will or bitterness or envy toward Jews, and you’re not idolizing your skin color then this post isn’t about you.
But there are many who are in the situation my friend found himself in.
Those are the guys I’m talking to.
Sometimes, you don’t need to
Have ALL of your objections concerned answered right away.
There are some good and interesting discussions and debates to be had around historical narratives, ethnicity, culture, and rebuilding a Christian civilization freed from the shackles of godless historical interpretations.
Yes and amen.
But those discussions and debates are only helpful when they are being had by Christians living in submission to Christ, displaying the fruit of the spirit, attempting to apply the word of God to all of life.
Sometimes the fruit of your life, and the fruit of the lives of those promoting a particular ideology is reason enough to walk away.
Corey Mauler and the Stone Choir Podcast is the prime example.
The fruit is bad. It’s vile.
Follow him and your life will bear the same vile fruit.
It is possible to OD on red pills.
Please know that I am genuinely praying for the men walking down this path.
If I didn’t care about you, I wouldn’t say anything.
But here I am saying something and praying for you.
