America Lost and Right Wing Christianity was exposed as the Temple of Hypocrisy that it is

Re: Nov 5 election results:

I am proud to have been on the side of goodness. I always am displeased when my team doesn't win, but the Hillary and Harris DEFEATS (Hillary didn't really LOSE) are unique in that they left me bitter, broken, and depressed. If they had lost to a real person rather than to a cartoon villain, I would simply be "damn, we lost." But when Simon Bar Sinister was given the keys to 1600 P (grab) Avenue, it wasn't that my "side" lost, it was that America and in some ways the world lost. Decency lost. Truth lost. Kindness lost. Compassion lost. The quest for equity and fairness and justice was certainly set back. This isn't one democratic ideology being more popular than another, this is autocracy, oligarchy, and Neo-facsism being given a green light to ruin lives. and that is heartbreaking. We still have the tools of democracy to retard and sometimes prevent the march toward dystopia, and in two years we will have the chance of congressional victories that will offer more protection, and if we take our local and state elections seriously, that can provide another level of protection. But all the Bible and prayer and morals and decency talk that we were raised with meant nothing to those who taught it (or at least nothing to the ones they tried to teach) which is why the judgements and condemnations of evangelicals and fundamentalists should from this moment on mean not one damn thing to anyone ever again.
