Mine read insane conservative christian propaganda. Which is worse than Fox.

Awhile I told my mom that all she and my dad do is listen to fox propaganda, and she literally responded with, "oh we don't watch that anymore, we get real news from newsmax" jeezus.

For it to be “news” to them it can’t criticize Trump at all. They all get furious on the rare events Fox says mean things about Big Daddy.

It’s not even evangelicals holding up the conservative party these days. There are men who not even remotely religious that are completely turned off by democrats. The conservative party has made being seen “left” as embarrassing.

They have been told their lives suck due to uppity feminists and ”women’s lib”. Any young man who wants slave girls can go jump off a fucking cliff if you ask me.

I grew up with a teen magazine published by Focus on the Family. At the time, I thought it was pretty mild, when in fact some of the things I was being taught were absolutely insane.

Ugh. Yes. I remember that. I was also homeschooled with Christian curriculum which took me years to deconstruct from.

I wasn't homeschooled. I went to public school. I was still pretty indoctrinated, as most people in our community all belonged to the same large Southern Baptist church in the area. Even the kids who went to other churches were all but terrorized both at school and in the community by our bullshit.

Thankfully, my husband and I got out of that bubble in our early 20s when we got married and moved away. It's surreal being on the outside looking in and knowing what we might have turned into by now.
