Ann Coulter: "Muslims and the Jews and the various exotic sexual groups and the black church ladies with the college queers" are united in hating white men. Ray Comfort again: Watch this video of two budgies flying about in an aviary and you'll believe in God. Alt-right douchebag releases "video game" in the style of the racist video game shitfest Ethnic Cleansing, unsurprisingly claims it is "satire" when facing inevitable backlash as a result of releasing tasteless crap like this. Police department in Alabama blames Satan for murders. Because why do your jobs when blaming Satan is more convenient? Steve Milloy: Global warming isn't an existential threat to Earth because Venus still exists. PragerU on how bureaucrats are the new kings…or something. Terror will bring people closer to God, says Banana Man Ray Comfort Tommy Robinson wannabe and self-described white nationalist James Goddard dons yellow vest, and films himself and his mates blocking vehicles - including an ambulance - from crossing a bridge. UPDATE: More fun and games from the Poundland Fuhrer The Federalist: Conservatism is more stigmatized than teh gays. Andrew Sullivan on America’s New Religions: “We have the cult of Trump on the right, a demigod who, among his worshippers, can do no wrong. And we have the cult of social justice on the left, a religion whose followers show the same zeal as any born-again Evangelical. They are filling the void that Christianity once owned, without any of the wisdom and culture and restraint that Christianity once provided.” (A thorough refutation and analysis of Sullivan's arguments by Ezra Klein can be found here.) Jordan Peterson: The term "climate change denier" is used to equate people called this with people who deny the Holocaust! PETA suggests phrases such as "kill two birds with one stone" should be changed due to being "speciesist". Birds are, of course, a class - Aves, not a species.
