@ImMeme0 He was talking about supporting black women within the party he is affiliated with. That black woman from Virginia may be skin folk but she ain’t kin folk. We don’t need an Aunt Tammy at this time. No thank you!!!
Mike, if you actually read what Jesus said, you’d realize most of what you’re calling “socialism” is just Christianity put into practice. Feeding the hungry, healing the sick, helping the poor, forgiving debts, showing mercy instead of greed, that’s not Socialism or Marxism, that’s straight from Christ’s mouth. Matthew 25:35-40 spells it out clearly: “For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was sick and you looked after me... whatever you did for the least of these, you did for me.” That’s not political ideology, that’s the foundation of the faith you claim to represent.
Zohra Mamdani’s work, fighting for fair housing, healthcare, and living wages, lines up far more with what Jesus taught than anything coming out of the GOP’s corporate talking points. The early Christians literally pooled resources so “there were no needy among them.” That’s not radical leftism, that’s the Book of Acts.
The irony is that Christ warned this exact thing would happen, that the powerful would hijack his name to serve themselves while condemning those who actually live his message. You can shout “Lord, Lord” all you want, but he said himself in Matthew 7 that many who do that will hear, “I never knew you.” So before calling others “socialist,” maybe look at the Gospel you claim to follow. It’s been preaching compassion and equity long before your party learned how to monetize fear.
@highbrow_nobrow@atrupar The way the govt is operating right now is exactly what they claim to be against. They literally accuse others of exactly what they’re doing. And they are counting on you not waking up from you blind faithfulness to their agenda until it’s too late.
