In reply to the discussion: Detailed and lengthy Twitter thread about why young voters hate the GOP [View all]ExWhoDoesntCare
(4,741 posts)58. Very much not true
Your deity promoted hate and divisiveness and he wasn't even subtle about it. How about this disgusting hatefest:
But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven {send you mean disbelievers to get tortured}. Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
--Matthew 10:33-38
The hate and divisiveness permeating that is downright trumpian. That alone negates the totality of any good he had to say, which wasn't much to begin with. And that's before getting to the depraved sadism of his many hell threats.

Outstanding thread - all FACTS. I do find it hard to believe there are young women who support R's.
