Angelica, a fairly popular ASMR YouTuber recently made a hard right turn after being a communist. It’s very disturbing to see since she originally supported the LGBTQ+ community and now she has completely turned heel here. She even posted an “apology” video that was so smug and awful too.

Another cringe video she just posted: “Why I Left the Left… Kids Need Protection” https://youtu.be/jos6Gpsu4mg?si=CEL5_gzKtetKjvBM

    Evangelicals, and probably tradcaths too, are starting to turn on Jesus. Like explicitly stating to their religious leaders that Jesus is a wuss and they can’t do that turn the other cheek crap in the face of the liberal threat. They’re complaining Jesus is too woke. It’s great. I love it. I am super enthusiastic bout this, the greatest of all anime betrayals.

        afaik, yeah, basically. They’re the same kind of brainworms as the Evangelical Christian Fascists with a thin Catholic veneer. I think most of them denounce the pope? Basically just more of the schismatic hard-right-wing reactionary heresies that America nurtures like mushrooms in shit. It’d be fun to get a list of world religions and see just how many of them have a wildly heretical American-spawned schismatic sect.

        Some freeze-gamer I know went “tradcath” after years of Warhammer 40K bullshit and “ironically” spouting Imperium of Man fascist shit. It wasn’t their only influence (up-yours-woke-moralists likely had more to do with it) but it contributed.

        There was a story the other week interviewing reverends and priests saying that their parishioners are complaining about Jesus’s teachings being too woke.

        It’s not the same as what they said, but people I know who work at a church have told me that it’s not unheard of for someone who donates a lot to the church to talk to the pastor about talking less about Jesus in the sermon. It might be exaggerated (maybe not idk), and it’s not a majority opinion (or is it?), but the energy is there.
