This. All of this. Every word.
This. All of this. Every word.
@martinvermeer @haselbach Ich weiß, worauf du hinaus möchtest und in diesem Rahmen hast du natürlich recht. Aber das ist gar nicht die Ebene, auf der ich meinen Vergleich gezogen haben, sondern eins darüber.
Auch „das Gesetz“ bindet nur die Menschen, die daran glauben und sich dementsprechend verhalten. Bibel und Verfassung sind menschliche Konstrukte, kein Naturgesetz und haben damit keine allgemeingültige Verbindlichkeit.
@sherold @haselbach Es ist natürlich wahr, das Bibel und Verfassung auf abstrakter Ebene keine allgemeingültige Verbindlichkeit haben. Aber der Preis eines Verbrechens gegen das Gesetz ist in der Praxis unendlich höher, auch wenn man nicht daran glaubt.

@sherold a year ago the same short (which apparently is from a story The Young Turks did in 2018) apparently also went viral in response to Polish government also further limiting the autonomy of people with a uturus, and #AnaKasparian of #TheYoungTurks reacted to the virality of her own rant at the time: https://youtu.be/VAvFfrYA2LM
Fortunately this video came with #ClosedCaptions, so I was able to extract the #transcript of her rant:
«These comments might be strong, but it's how I genuinely feel I don't care that you're a Christian.
I don't care what the Bible says.
Like, I feel like it's a clown show, like sitting here trying to decipher what your little mythical book has to say about these very real political issues, right?
I don't care if you're Christian.
In fact, I will fight for you to have your religious liberty and practice your Christianity, I believe in that.
I don't believe in Christianity, which means that you do not get to dictate the way I live my life based on your religion.
I don't care what the Bible says.
You have every right in the world.
All those women who identify with your religion have every right in the world to not get an abortion, to not take birth control, but they do not have the right to dictate my life, and what I decided to do with my body.
I don't care about your goddamn religion.
I'm so tired of having non stop conversations about what the Bible says.
You live your life in the way that you interpret the bible.
Again, I don't care, but you don't get to take the bible and tell me, well, the bible says this in this chapter and this verse.
I don't care, I don't care, I don't believe in it and I have the right, based on our constitution to not believe in it.»

Ohne die Unterstützung christlicher Nationalisten hätte Trump nie die Wahl gewonnen. Während seiner Amtszeit hat Trump zahlreiche Forderungen der religiösen Rechten umgesetzt. Doch was steckt eigentlich hinter dieser Bewegung und was sind ihre Ziele? Die Autorin Annika Brockschmidt hat sich in ihrer Arbeit intensiv mit der Entstehung und dem heutigen Einfluss der religiösen Hardliner auf die US-Politik beschäftigt. In ihrem Buch "Amerikas Gotteskrieger" beschreibt sie, wie christliche Fundamentalisten es geschafft haben, ihre Forderungen in den politischen Mainstream zu tragen. Wir sprechen unter anderem über die Entstehung der religiösen Rechten, christliche Pro-Trump Medien-Filterblasen, "Purity Culture" Sex-Ratgeber und "religiöse Kriegsführung".

Vielen Dank für die Podcastempfehlung, @Eremit!
Ich kann dich gut verstehen, @adamsfan. Mir hilft folgendes: All die progressiven und liberalen Gesetze sind nicht selbstverständlich. Ihr Fortschritt verläuft nicht automatisch linear weiter, bloß weil sie jetzt einfach da sind.
Nationalisten und Rückwärtsgewandte kämpfen für “ihre Rechte” und die freiheitliche und humanistische Gesellschaft muss dafür kämpfen. Immer wieder. Und das wird uns gerade schmerzlich bewusst.
@sherold »You live your life in the way that you INTERPRET the bible.« (word interpret stressed by me).
I second every word she says.

She's Ana Kasperian. As talking heads at The Young Turks go, she's better than most.
Fair warning: she's a bit of a terf, and she's scared of unhoused people.
But she's not a screaming dumbass like Cenk.
