    No one is sending you anywhere. You know Trump isn’t even a Christian himself, right?

      The Gulag was a government agency in the Soviet Union that administered forced labor camps, particularly during Joseph Stalin’s rule, especially in the 1930s through early 1950s. Stalin was not a Christian either. Similarly, if Putin considers you a threat, you may disappear. Trump has followed a similar approach, gathering loyalists in as many government positions as possible. He has vowed retribution against his perceived enemies, much like the forced internment camps the U.S. used for Japanese Americans during WWII. He may indeed imprison those who speak out against him, having already promised to deploy the National Guard against protesters.

    I’d say start studying the Bible so you can blend in, but actually knowing scripture is VERY uncommon among the MAGA crowd.

    Probably after the other low-hanging fruit has been “dealt with”. They’ll start with illegal immigrants because they’re easier to pick out and have less people to stand up for them. Then they’ll turn their attention somewhere else, then somewhere else, but eventually they’ll get around to Atheists, because obviously they’re all ungodly heathens who commit all sorts of atrocities, not at all like Church leaders and devout Christians, who can do no wrong.

      illegal immigrants

      And that’s a dog whistle for “the coloreds”. Not just the illegals, but anyone who doesn’t “belong”. Racism and bigotry have never been more rampant in this country in my lifetime.

      It’ll be the LGBT groups, just like last time. Do you hear how violent the rhetoric has become about trans people? They’re also a small enough and defenseless group.

      But yes, it will be other groups before atheists.

      “First they came for the immigrants, but I did not speak up because I was not an immigrant…”

    Hopefully not until Putin takes over the UK since that’s where we’re fleeing to.

    It might not be the best country, but it is a country where the government is actively working on banning conversion therapy with cross-party and church support.

        I see, you want to stop citizens from going to a country where they are a citizen.

        How Trump of you. (Or, I suppose, Farage.)
