No, she wasn't Lutheran. I'm from the south, so she was probably some type of evangelical Baptist schism. There were so many different little splits of protestants in my hometown.

Not to mention that most Christians around where I'm from just go on vibes rather than specific theology. I didn't mean to specifically draw attention to my classmate's religion though. I just meant that she reminded me of this very vibes based thing Grimes has going. A very empty statement of empathy towards everyone without truly meaning it or knowing what they're saying.

Expressing universal empathy can be good though, it's good to recognize shared humanity. It falls apart when you're doing like Grimes and repeating Nazi ideology.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
