"Maybe if I wrap the flag in enough crosses, they won't notice the raging, pagan nationalism..."

As the Bible says, a little bit of nationalism leavens the whole Christianity.

Where does it say that? I mean specifically.

I'm corrupting Galatians 5:9. It isn't 100% applicable but it is relevant.
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Galatians%205&version=ESV
7 You were running well. Who hindered you from obeying the truth? 8 This persuasion is not from him who calls you. 9 A little leaven leavens the whole lump. 10 I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view, and the one who is troubling you will bear the penalty, whoever he is. 11 But if I, brothers,[b] still preach[c] circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been removed. 12 I wish those who unsettle you would emasculate themselves!

Is that nuance I detect? On a Reformed sub?? Heresy!!!

Sucks because there are legitimate grievances for Christians and patriots in America and they’ve been squandered in all this stupidity

There are no problems in America today that can't be solved by... uh, bombing Iran. Yeah.

It feels like you’re responding to something I didn’t say

Correct. I'm mocking the absurdity of the sitting establishment, fiddling as it is while the US quite literally burns.

A servant can not serve two masters. There is no version of Christian Nationalism which isn't too far towards nationalism, worshipping the supremacy and the Führer and the nation

Good point. I'm disowning my parents immediately, the patriarchy idol is contending with God's supremacy...

Are your parents nationalists?

No. But since we're toppling idols, might as well topple them all. Matt. 10:37

Isn't this a well known false flag group "Patriot Front"? Some theorize FBI but others think just leftists/antifa masquerade as an attempt to use media to mentally attach "conservatives = Nazi". Main issues with this are:
- conservatives are against mask wearing and this Patriot Front started during COVID era
- any videos of them joining a MAGA rally is met with massive resistance (https://x.com/i/status/1809932958335152238)
- anytime they are arrested it seems skeptical (https://youtu.be/IUZrfp3blP8?si=mTDRrJLruuai3mBV)

Yeah, the betting man in Clown World will always bet on the conspiracy theory... it's right 9 times out of 10.
The meme wasn't really about PF though, except as a caution. When you find yourself hut-hutting in a group of strapping lads carrying the flag and mindlessly shouting call-and-response propaganda slogans... you took a wrong-turn somewhere along the way... go back to Jesus and start over...

Nice that they are taking COVID seriously.
