Typical discussion with any right wing Christian:

“I’m a devoted follower to the messages of our savior Jesus Christ.”

“Didn’t Jesus said to love your neighbor as you move yourself?”

“I don’t follow that part.”

It's just a little weird and terrifying to see so many narcissists collapse in real time. It's almost as if our whole culture is built around propping up rich, harmful a-holes. We pay to see them in movies, play sports and read every thought they burp out. They pass harmful laws and then -on the occasion that we vote them out of power- they fucking collapse. Maybe I'll just spend a quiet night at home.

Me, I’m just glad to see them finally collapsing. I think more than anything else it’s that narcissists live in a fictional world of their own making. And when you lose the amount of money that someone like musk has lost, that’s when you come right up against reality. There’s no way to spend that. So his whole world falls apart. Not sure why Trump hasn’t hit his reality wall yet, or maybe he has, he sure isn’t as visible as he used to be not too long ago.

Though religious people of all groups like to quote it as an argument in favor of their specific religious practices.

You could fill a whole book with Christian lessons that American Christians ignore. It's the Bible. That book is the bible.
