October 15, 2026: Christian revenge for entertainment.

Nothing has been more muddled, discombobulated and propagandized as modern Christianity. One sect praises peace and practices it, one sect degrades another sect, one sect degrades women while somehow “protecting” them, and they all seem to have reason to kill each other when the disagreements boil over. (PS: it’s not just Christian monopoly, other religions kill their own besides others.)

They also all need money. I had know idea God was so broke.

Which brings to mind the latest Trump administration pile of acrid excrement, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. Armed with religious zeal that harkens the Crusades, Hegseth’s ego has renamed his department from “Defense” to “War”, as if it’s his personal mission to feed the creed of an early, more barbaric era – also armed with a piety and asserted moral authority to be able to conduct war with impunity.

Too bad he can’t prosecute it worth a shit.

On February 28th, egged on by Fox News chicken-hawk wannabees, the Orange Slob and his minions launched a military incursion into Iran. The goal? Who knows, since then the mission has drifted from preventing nuclear weaponry to removing tyrants to thinking the Iranian people would rise up to over throw them.

These dips didn’t get any of it right, and have since pissed away a majority of American armaments, missiles, and other weaponry, making our nation more vulnerable; as well as disrupting the global supply of energy from a major oil-producing region, creating shortages, driving prices up and triggering an inflationary spiral that has harmed economies, including ours.

That alone should have had Hegseth shit-canned.

As in most Trump sideshows, distraction is the theme. Not to be outdone, Hegseth suggested the execution of Nidal Hasan, who carried out a mass shooting on Fort Hood, killing nine, should be livestreamed. This is a descent into barbarism converted into “bread and circus”, no matter what his reasons are. Much of it comes from another perversion of a tenet of a Christian sect, the Communion of Reformed Evangelical churches. Who knows who would be lined up to sponsor it…. Fox? Wal Mart? Koch? Buc-ees? Chick Fil A? Good “Christians” all. (As of this morning, Trump says it won’t be livestreamed, taking over a week to trigger a sense of civilization in his addled mind.)

Welcome to Trump’s America. Welcome to Hegseth’s Christianity. What pieces of shit.

When they are convicted of war crimes and crimes against the American people, I would expect the same treatment.

Footnote: My complaint of the AI-generated right-wing cesspool that Facebook has become seems to have been relieved, by apparently an unwitting, but admirable hero: Vladimir Zellensky, president of Ukraine, had airstrikes carried out on Russian data centers. After the attack, right-wing bots went almost silent. Trump complained. Musk complained. My answer to them is stuff it; I hope Zellensky takes out more. We could only be so lucky.
