Now religious fanaticism is being seen all over the country.
They're now back to blaming everything on gays, illegal aliens and abortion.

Its so amazing to watch.

I mean its quite fascinating to watch. We're taught that Marx was a hack and was so wrong, yet we're seeing this play out before our very eyes.

Its amazing but not in a good way.

Maybe if drugs weren't seen as "vice" and a societal evil, opium could be the opium of the masses.

Religion is at an all time low. How are you drawing these conclusions?

Nothing has changed on that front for as long as I've been alive, over four decades.

Marx was right about many things.

Just explicitly not any of his takes on capitalism.

Yeah that number never really changed over the years. Overall christian religion is down, but the vast majority still "practicing" undoubtedly vote red and like being controlled, apparently.

And the article says the Republican supporting Christian Nationalism is a minority belief overall. I don't understand the point you're making.

Marx was wrong in thinking that religion would evaporate if utopia was reached. Frankly it's sad that his modern day acolytes think he was right about everything.

Marx also said if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce, they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does.
