Where TF has he been? This "alarm" should've happened at least a decade ago, if not three.

They were hiding the alarm button from everyone until it was too late and they could go "oh no .. well, I guess we better accept Christian nationalism now since it's too late now. Let's go lynch some minorities"

I tried to tell my parents in the 90s, but I was a child. They hit me and forced me to comply. I was a christian for decades. I finally realized the truth and confronted my parents again as an adult, but they're denying everything and insisting I gave myself the problems they violently forced on me.

It's a death cult. Mom voted for Trump and now everyone suffers. People are stupidly tolerating our mutual slaughter instead of opposing deadly idiocy like our lives depend on it, which they do.

Yeah man, this is the second round of them being in the white house. Appreciate you sounding the fire alarm after the house has burnt down.

The house didn't burn down (this time); it was bulldozed.

Is he blind? Why did it take him this long?
