In reply to the discussion: New Details Revealed About the Nearly 2 Dozen Young Girls Confirmed Missing from Christian Camp After Devastating Texas [View all]Bluetus
(3,106 posts)The point I'm trying to make is that what happened is a DIRECT result of climate change, and Christians in general have been the primary enablers of the Republicans who have fought every attempt deal with the climate crisis. The news coverage should make the obvious connection.
Religious freedom means that anybody can have camps like this. But there is a direct connection between the climate change that took these lives and the political activism of Christians in our politics, and that should be stated out loud.
It is a tragedy that anybody had to die in these flash floods, but I'd wager the vast majority who were affected have consistently voted for politicians who have blocked all attempts to deal with climate change. We cannot let the RW continue to bully us into not stating these obvious connections.
Consequences. Just like Uvalde and el Paso.
