Andrew Torba absolutely nailed it when he started using that line.
Only problem is Torba has his own tradcon blind spots where if we were to adopt his mentality it'll just lead to another pendulum shift back if we 100% went with how he thinks about shit like porn.
I know, I agree with all of you that too much degeneracy and porn addiction is one of the reasons why so many men are weak and emasculated now, however do remember part of the reason why we had this hard left backlash to what we had in the 80s and 90s is because trying to use the government to enforce your ideology leads to dumb shit that we're fighting against from the left.
Christ is King doesn't mean much to me since I'm less religious than some of you folks, but I find atheists absolutely insufferable these days considering they have their own type of religious fervor on how BADLY they want to DEBOONK religion to "prove" God doesn't exist. There's an almost childish and immature energy behind atheists who try so hard to debate religion where it's pointless energy spent arguing over something nobody will change their positions on.
I also think it's not an offensive thing to say "Chris is King". I also know when a Christian says it, that's the equivalent of I guess some atheist saying "The sky is blue". It's a part of their basic belief structure, so getting offended that a Christian fucking says "Christ is king" is as retarded as getting offended at people saying simple trueisms - water is wet, light is bright, grass is green, etc.
I'm not terribly religious but I've found it more and more irritating seeing the demonization of Christians in the past 10-20 years.. Christians live in the heads of leftists, and I suppose both Jewish and Islamic nutjobs rent free and it absolutely baffles me there's so much goddamn butthurt in a "modern society" over the Abrahamic religions fighting with each other like that.
The Nosferatu compared "Christ is King" posts to burning a cross. People may be threatening him, but they're not doing so with "Christ is King" posts. What should be fairly understood as the other half of the "Christ is King" post is not "we are coming to get you" but rather "we are coming to expose you." The other half is "And We know who You are, You who reject Christ".
This sunlight causes the Nosferatu to squirm, but nobody's at his house burning shit yet.
I’m not sure that that’s true. Remember, most of the leftist thought we’re dealing with now can be traced back to various bolsheviks and marxists and communist academics and revolutionaries and the like. That shit started bubbling under the surface way, way before the 80s and 90s. It seems more accurate to suggest that the left successfully captured academia and much of legalism sometime leading up to the 60s. That’s why they managed to get the campus protests (riots) and the Civil Rights Bill, which indirectly has made much of leftism unchallengeable, passed at that time. Their unrest continued into the 70s as the Weather Underground (among contemporaries) and consequences of integration, among other things, played out.
Conservatism in the 80s and 90s was just a pushback against this stuff, but if anything, its fault was in not going far enough. Leftism sunk away from the public eye for a bit, but it stayed alive in the various influence circles they had created and corrupted before. Patronage networks, lawfare, and political influence saved people like Bill Ayers and later Susan Rosenberg, allowing literal far-left terrorists to influence high levels of government. The right did not conserve its own temporary power nearly as well.
It’s easy to say “rightward overreaching allowed for the left to grow in popularity,” and there’s maybe some truth to that, but one should also remember that the left has been on a long, long campaign which the right ultimately has failed, at every turn, to effectively quash. One in which they do remember their allies and fight to retake lost ground, while their opponents do neither and pretend it isn’t happening.
I'm trying to remember which boomercon / shabboscon tried to claim that "Christ is King" was the same thing as "black lives matter," claiming that Christians publicly expressing their own religion were engaging in the Marxist linguistic fuckery that is so common today. He, and those who think like him, really betray much about themselves. They don't really believe in Truth, and they certainly don't believe in an individuals duty to the Truth. I question if they understand that other people can care about the Truth, and (gasp!) believe their own religion. It is lost on boomercons (but not Jews) that "Christ is King" is proclaiming the Truth.
What if is isn't the Truth? Then you would expect opponent to challenge it, would you not? Why instead of saying "this is not true," did so many instead chose to say, "this is anti-Semitic"? Why can a skeptic say "Christ is not King," but those at the DW cannot?
They would either challenge it or consider your claim empty and not worth replying to. They wouldn't act offended.
