It was time in 2001

Personally, I identify more as a Christain and an American than I do a white person. I don't really have a strong identity in my tribal group. Both of those identifiers are based on creeds that welcome people of all ethnicities.

I find that the social darwinism tendencies in the first card, that 'if you didn't meet your goals, you didn't work hard enough' mentality is more common on the liberal/tribal side than it is on the right/moral side. We obviously value hard work but we believe in loving your neighbor and helping your community. those points often get lost in the discussions because we value our freedom and don't like to be coerced into giving.

That's the main item in the graphic that I don't agree with, maybe that and the wealth=worth + your job is you idea, which again I see more as a left wing tribal idea. In certain parts of the country the introductory question is 'what do you do' and in others the first question is 'where are you from', the whatdoyoudo-ers are blue states and the whereareyoufrom-ers tend to be red.

Apart from the wealth/job fixation most of this looks like positive universal traits that anyone is welcome to adopt without making one 'white' Liberty, work ethic, Godliness, rationality, clarity, family, beauty, punctuality, none of this is specific to white people. This ethnic separatism we're seeing so much more of these days is sad and unamerican. We live under the same laws, fight in the same armies, do business together, worship the same God, live in the same neighborhoods, speak the same language, intermarry, share in each others arts and history, by any other metric aside from melanin count we function as one people group.

Come to North Carolina, we're on the edge of turning blue and need reinforcements

Good to see the Bible getting so many upTrumps

Some Bible tips for new believers or the curious: You can read through the whole Bible in about 72 hours, but 72 hours for the entire book is a really ambitious pace, I'd recommend spreading it over a year at about 30 minutes a day, then taking time to think, process and pray through the deep truths it contains. The book is divided into new and old testaments, Old covers Creation to the end of Israel (prior to its re-establishment in 1948 of course), there is a 400 year silence that lines up with the time of Alexander the great, then the New Testament begins with the arrival of Jesus Christ and ends towards the end of John's life (one of Jesus' followers).

The Old Testament is about 2.5 times the reading length of the New and is a bit trickier to grasp because of the specifics of the Jewish nation, but it is essential reading. If this is your first trip through the Bible I'd recommend a New Testament sandwich, start with the new, then go through the old, then read the new one more time and things will make much more sense.

If you really give the Bible a chance it resonates like no other book. The setup/fall/redemption arc that plays over and over again in the Old testament until the climax in Jesus' resurrection has echoes all over our culture, most songs stories and movies follow a similar 3 act structure pattern. No other book deals in prophecy that actually comes true, no other book speaks to the heart and the human condition like the Bible, and nobody but the Jesus of the Bible can save our souls, bring contentment to our lives and open heaven to us when we die. I'm of the opinion that a mass rediscovery of our Faith is essential for turning America back towards greatness. Give the Bible a thorough reading, you wont regret it.

We're all beyond saving, that is one of the themes throughout the Bible.

Jer 17: 9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?

Romans 3: 10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: 11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. 12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. 13 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: 14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: 15 Their feet are swift to shed blood: 16 Destruction and misery are in their ways: 17 And the way of peace have they not known: 18 There is no fear of God before their eyes. 19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. 20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. 21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; 22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

Romans 7: 18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. 19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. 20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. 21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. 22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: 23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. 24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? 25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.

Over and over again in the Bible we see stories of man failing and disobeying, and God extending his mercy to us. The climax of this trend is the arrival of Jesus, whose sacrifice provides for our salvation, not anything we are able to do on our own. What saves us is not some life improvement course, or having enough good deeds on one's report card. To get to heaven requires faith in Jesus.

Eph 2: 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Many Christians in the reformed tradition will even say that the faith that saves people is itself a gift of the Holy Spirit, rather than an action on the part of the believer, I'm not sure where I land on the issue myself, the having of that faith is more important than the theory of where the faith comes from in my opinion.

Thanks to Christ, nobody is beyond saving! I'm the worst sinner that I've ever known, and I know that I'm saved.

We have a lovely little right wing ghetto here, but I think we still need to go out into the public square and convert people if we're to have any hope against the ongoing demographic replacement program.

We absolutely should be on reddit and all the other liberal hangouts, refuting their arguments and pointing out their hypocrisy. We'll get silenced and attacked but it converts a portion of them over time. We lost control over culture because we got soft and ceded all offensive to the left, if we don't mount an attack we will lose.

I have no confidence that she'll actually survive long enough to testify, I'll believe it when I see it

I'm on board, we have a lot of work to do in setting up an alternative infrastructure to avoid being cancelled.

DNS, web hosting, adtech, payment processors, CDN's, all of them have been yanked out from under conservative communities in the past. I think we're in a pretty good place as far as alternative social media is concerned, the platforms exist but we just need to use them.

The challenge with most of the things is that they aren't cheap to set up, but I fear that we must try before we are cut off from the internet.

I too disagree with the Karen meme.

For as anti hate as most people are, they don't seem to appreciate that they haven't reduced any hate, they've just redistributed their hate to new made-up people groups. Karen is a big one, but there's also niceguys, fragilewhiteredditor, starterpacks, etc. Reddit's favorite activity is to make up new people groups and run hate trains on them.Their second favorite activity is the never ending spiral of correcting each other one upmanship.

I'd like for win to be a better, less hypocritical place than reddit was

Their fans also call then the hogs, I wouldn’t object to that as their new name, we could switch to offending the Muslims instead.

We’ll just have to sing extra loud to make up for it in the other states I guess.

I go an IFB church in the southeast, if one of you California churches wants to connect your speakers to some singing remotely I bet we could make something happen.

Amen, between this and the Lemon test last year, we're making some pretty good steps forward on religious liberty.

Now that we're reclaiming these liberties, we believers need to act more boldly and express our religious views more often.

We don't have to let the public school system shove atheism down our children's throats anymore, we can erect religious monuments and displays in public now, lets celebrate those things and take advantage of them while we still can.

all/new is constantly disgusting, one glance at that page will tell you what reddit really is and how infected our culture has become.

I do agree with getting rid of porn on reddit. We should keep it off of the winners as well.

Beyond that, the industry could use some serious regulation, especially the Miami side. The camera prostitution that has grown so popular in recent years needs a serious review as well, sometimes I feel like more women are selling their nudes than are not and its sad. Linda Lovelace wrote a book about her experiences in the porn industry, it's sad.

Kicking porn addiction is work worth doing. Once that temptation to jerk off to some porn fades away, it feels like you've recovered from being drunk, its a while new level of clarity.

I was really looking forward to his North Carolina appearance. I can speak to what I'm seeing happening in my area with the virus if anyone is interested, here goes.

I live in a fairly populated area (for NC that is) and drive past one of those drive thru clinics to work every day. It was pretty much empty up until about 2 weeks ago, when lines of cars wrapped twice around the building. Something happened recently that caused a spike.

I go to a church that gets about 2000 people on a typical sunday morning (prior to the rona, were around the 500's now). The preachers are excellent ministers, keeping up with our lives and announcing prayer requests for the sick. They pay particular attention to the shut-in's in nursing homes. There has not been a single request related to a member getting this virus since the lockdown began, just the typical cancers, surgeries and funerals. Most of the elderly crowd is staying at home though.

The closest rona patient to anyone I know is a friend's sister, who went to the doctor for a pregnancy checkup and was told that she tested positive for the corona anitbodies, and likely had the virus without symptoms a month or two ago. My friend tells me that she never felt sick since the beginning of the lock down. I have another acquaintance that works in nursing homes who has come into contact with a couple elderly rona patients, who tells me that they felt sick for a time and recovered without the need for a ventilator.

I don't doubt that the virus is serious in some cases , but I feel like I have enough of a sample size between my church, workplace and friends to say pretty fairly that the public response to it in my area has been larger than necessary. My fellow NC republicans, please please show up and vote, we can't let our state flip blue. We have to cancel out all those Charlotte bankers.
