Well worth listening to behind the bastards on this guy.
He has no clue about history, makes up religious bullshit, and if he could rob every soldier in that room he would do it in a heartbeat.
Hegseth is a parishioner of Douglas Wilson’s church. Douglas Wilson is a self described Christian nationalist. He recently went on Sam Harris’s podcast (episode 443) and talked about all of his beliefs and goals, and hoo boy, what a ride. It was a really good, honest dive into the mind of a devout Christian nationalist. Even having grown up in the church, I learned several things from Douglas during the podcast. Well worth the listen for people interested in learning the true viewpoint of Christian nationalists. At the end, Douglas thanks Sam and says it was the best interview he’s done in years.
Fucking dickhead.
So, he failed miserably while he was in service, right?
how that work when they are both xstian nations?
Jesus fuck!
And like Christ, in earthly ways our brave warriors are not called to appease the world, they must confront it.
“Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.” John 18:36
Everything that comes out of these people’s mouths is white nationalist revisionist bullshit because they all gave up any cause for Actual Bible Jesus a long time ago, which is its own brand of bullshit, so whatever I guess. I’m just sick of people in positions of power feeling comfortable shoving their fairy stories down everybody’s throats.
Jesus said a lot of things, you know who else says a lot of things? Me and I say fuck biblical debates
I sure wish Pete would save himself.
Zoom!
You first you Nazi fuck.
Just a heads’ up — I get these messages, not Hegseth.
It’s deffo kinda weird when people do it. Like, I understand being frustrated and wanting to vent but there is no way any of them are going to see a lemmy comment, of all things.
I totally get being mad, and the fediverse is complicated enough and different enough from other social media experiences that I totally understand where the intuition comes from. I just want to invite people to come join us, and making the threadiverse a more friendly place to the humans that interact here is a prerequisite for me.
Hell yeah.
Just a heads’ up — I get these messages, not Hegseth.
You understand that in that context (because of how the headline is worded) the response is to Hegseth and not you, right?
When I’m replying to a headline a person posted, I’ll specifically address the person in the article by name, but I wanted to let you know that most people aren’t going to think you’re a Nazi because you’re posting a new article about a Nazi’s behavior.
Yeah, it just takes a minute to orient myself since the context I see it in is my inbox, rather than in the thread. I mostly just mean that if you want more people to post more things, making it a pleasant experience is likely to help, and spending 30 seconds trying to figure out who you pissed off and why, only to find it’s addressed at some third party is not a particularly pleasant experience. “You” in a top-level comment is inherently ambiguous — you could be addressing me (the OP), the author of the article, or the subject of the article, and it just takes a sec to figure out.
Oh is that how this works?
So, you’ll pass on the message.
This is fun, reminds me of telephone.
Yeah, I’ll do my best. I just wanted to remind you that I just get a message in my inbox that says I’m a nazi, even though you mean it for someone else.

If heaven existed and was any way “just” US soldiers would be on the fast track to hell given how much harm they spread throughout the world.
St. Peter: It says here you died for American oil companies.
Sir YES SIR!
(Lee Greenwood America bullshit music starts)
I’m sorry, these gates shall remain closed to you. You may wander over there in purgatory or simply burn down there to your left.
I don’t check in on the mortal world that often… Are they really killing each other over the stuff they put in lamps?
I don’t check in on the mortal world that often
Yeah that much is obvious
Yes but the lamps are now transportation machines called planes, trains, and automobiles.
What’s next they get some virgins when they die too?
They don’t wait for death for that. Where are the rest of the Epstein files?
he should lead the way
Pretty sure he thinks Jesus is the Blood God from warhammer.
Wait… So Hegseth speaks for Jesus now?
“Eff around, and find out.”
- John 3:16
I think you got the book wrong — I’m pretty sure that’s Austin 3:16
