A Thought

The Jesus myth is very appealing to the current batch of wingnuts - evangelical and otherwise.

Jesus was horribly wronged, and persecuted, and crucified. And in the upside down and backwards MAGA world, he was victimized by a Mid-Classical Period version of the Deep State - a combination of the globalist Romans and the bureaucratic Pharisees, aligned to rig the system against him.

They've been taught their whole lives to be like Jesus - and like the early Christians who stood up for their new religion in the face of official suppression and blah blah blah - and even though most of those jokers haven't seen the inside of a real church since about the 4th grade, they've adopted (ie: co-opted) the persona of the long-suffering martyr.


Add to that a couple of convenient accoutrements, and we've got us a brand new gospel.
  1. Jesus returns and rules with an iron rod - Alpha Jesus does not hold with all this woke DEI shit.
  2. Y'mean I can be as big a shit-heel as I wanna be the whole week as long as I take a minute to ask forgiveness while I'm warming up on the first tee on Sunday? Shit - I'm in.
So eventually it becomes a matter of needing to make a show of your borrowed victimhood in order to claim and maintain your rightful place in MAGAdom.
