I'm noticing more and more protective conspiracy theories cropping up. These are conspiracy theories that appear and get boosted to protect real secrets and conspiracies, cloaking the weird in the ridiculous. I'll go back to an OG for my example, the Moon Landings.

Since nations, as moral entities, have a moral and natural duty to acknowledge and worship God, nations have no need to receive a special, God-initiated covenant to do so. It is a duty of immutable nature.
Time for WASP nationalism
But this has always been one of my problems with Christian Nationalism as a rallying point, it is not specific enough As Jack points there are disastrous nations that have protestant populations, this is not enough to identify why America is what it is

Saying America was founded on ‘Protestant Spirit’ is like saying Rome was founded on Jupiter worship The Founders did not envision America as some multi-ethnic Protestant utopia They founded a nation-state built by and for their specific heritage and civilization

It is wicked to make your son compete with the whole world to retain his inheritance.
“The Deception of Lights” In the days when the world was young and wide, And the night was a velvet cloak unfurled, Men gazed at the stars with wondering eyes, At the silver rivers that swirled and swirled. They whispered of gods in the glittering host, Of mysteries vast in the…
Dystopian. The pagans are blinding themselves with artificial lights so that they can avoid the cosmic dread of seeing the stars.

Democracy is not a Christian value
Democracy is not an American value.
From the early 19th century until the 1950s, the phrase Native American was used to refer to people of European descent who settled the American continent. Indigenous peoples here were referred to as American Indians, or simply Indians. It was a completely Orwellian revision of…
If our retro-futuristic diner turns out well, which I think it will, @Tesla will establish these in major cities around the world, as well as at Supercharger sites on long distance routes. An island of good food, good vibes & entertainment, all while Supercharging!

This is one of the best tweets I've ever seen
An elderly couple got to an estate sale before me and snatched all the +100 y/o leather-bound books. Disappointment. I heard them saying how they didn't know what the books were about but they looked "pretty" and wanted to give each as a Christmas gift. RAGE. They had artifacts…
The North, however, embraced the doctrine of total war. There's a direct line from Sherman's march to the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Come on guys. Please tell me that no one still thinks this guy is on our side
