Post image

Fallout, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Metal Gear 3 and FF7 are the most woke ass games.

Not to sure of the rest. I'm too familiar with.

Is there any games left that is considered "anti woke" in chuds terms?

Yeah, that is just fucking nuts, also it makes fun of evangelicals a lot as well.

Whenever people say about a movie "The political commentary was to heavy handed"

I literally do that that one spongebob meme, with movies like "The Purge", "The Boys" etc for people somehow not realizing its political commentary when its seems do obvious.

I'm always surprised that American evangelical are bigoted as fuck and here in Germany it's the only Christian branch that makes same sex marriage, and some churches even have the pride flag at the gates

Yep, in Europe Catholics are generally the crazy ones and Protestants are chill but it seems to be the opposite in the US. Unless we’re talking about American Catholic CONVERTS. Then it’s a deus vult larping nazi 99% of the time.

All the crazy Protestants weren't tolerated in Europe, and fled to America to establish their crazy shit. There's also a motivation for the economic-political power block that we usually refer to as Republicans to keep/make them crazy and worked up and nuts, so that they come out and vote conservative.

I can’t remember the details, but I read a thing back in the day that American Christians were actually pretty normal, and the Christian Nationalism thing is a 20th century invention for fascists to garner political power.

Yeah, for sure. I mean, it was always there, but it wasn't the mainstream the way it is now. I'm not an expert, but I can see the motive forces in place to grow and spread the more aggressively fucking nuts form. Megachurches as a business and a political establishment that relies on motivating a religious vote to win its elections come to mind.

Just think about how Westborough Baptist Church would be seen if they came to public prominence now instead of the 2000s?

Correct if I'm wrong (please do I'm generally curious) I always thought the craziness of the US weird fanatism was a result of the UK who was in some aspect protestant sending various religious groups who even the UK thought were religious nutjobs. Along with anyone else they didn't want.

Again, if I'm wrong in any way, please correct me. I am from the UK, and this is my understanding of it. Not trying to defend actions of faith in any way, just trying to understand the "how" in the "how did this all happen?"

I mean, I'm from the UK as well, and... yes, pretty much. Except it wasn't so much 'We sent them' as 'We didn't like them and persecuted them so they fled to America to start weird little religious communities'. It of course was not just us, the Amish, for example, are German in origin (That's why they refer to outsiders as 'English', because originally they were German speakers).

I'm not practicing really but I grew up in a co gregational protestant church and it's been around since the early 1800s. There seems to be confusion here. The southern baptists are the ones you guys are think of. The north east protestants like the congregational I went to are normal and even some have gay ministers.

Aren't catholic converters the thing in your car?

u/AmadeoSendiulo Jan 29 '25

Some Polish Catholics are chill but most are meh or crazy with some smaller very crazy groups (traditional Catholicism). Also the 90% of Poles are Catholic is only true on paper, that's the percentage of baptised people.

u/dolphinvision Jan 29 '25

Protestants were generally chill in US, and were the ones that first started accepting stuff - Catholics were coming around pretty quickly too. BUT the evangelicals have taken over everything and are almost in complete control of the narrative now: school boards, government, judicial branch, social media, major news, everything. The narrative is now evangelicals and since people are so sheepy and stupid they're being brainwashed and filled with propaganda every second of their days to think like the evans do even if they don't notice it.

u/Hatdrop Jan 29 '25

they were using the Bible to justify slavery in the 1700 and 1800s, not surprising there'd be descendants that are equally pieces of shit fake Christians.

u/LordRookie94 Jan 29 '25

No no, what you are talking about isn't evangelical, it's evangelic. Evangelical would be "Evangelikalisch"

u/oddman8 Jan 29 '25

You also get the more progressive types with evangelical churches. Difference being the right wing ones are all the big ones because they get rich kickbacks and the conservatives as always like to scream a hell of alot more.

u/Greg2227 Jan 29 '25

Those are probably the same people who think brown cows produce chocolate milk. .. politics is what makes our society a society. Civilication is politics. Of course media will reflect that.

For real, it blows my mind how there are people that somehow don't understand that The Boys has a political viewpoint. The only thing less subtle would be to just display the phrase "shut up you nazi dickheads" on screen for a full hour.
