  • It's called the "prosperity gospel".

    It was invented by televangelists who told their audiences "give me all your money and God will reward you by making you rich." If you're old enough to remember Oral Roberts, he was one of the first.

    Then it spread to mainstream churches, because rich conservative "Christians" wanted to believe they were rich because they were good people, and that poor people were poor because they were bad people. And those rich "Christians" donated generously to churches that told them what they wanted to hear.

    It's Christianity, yes. And it's the most repugnant Christian heresy I've ever heard of.

  • Oh no, the country with three times more people than the entire Anglosphere is starting to have a presence on Reddit proportionate to its numbers. How horrible.

    What a shame India doesn't have a government like China's to quarantine its people behind a firewall so you can keep pretending Americans run the Internet.

  • And on the punk side of things, anybody familiar with volunteer community action, cooperative events, whatever, knows that sometimes a person doing shit for the community fails to do the shit they were supposed to do because some other shit happened in their life. It happens. We just move on to the backup shit-doer-person or find a workaround for the lack of shit.

    And this is the cool thing about a distributed network like Lemmy. If a giant centralized database like FB goes down, its users can't do anything. If our favorite Lemmy node goes down, we can log into other nodes until our home base is back up.
