People need to witness this.

Dominionist Christians are a political movement, not a religion.

Believers are being urged to commit violence and given approval for “shedding” blood.

Don’t think these calls to violence are limited to the US. Dominionism is a global movement.
Dominionism is NOT a religious sect. Churches that have adopted the belief that the bible is the literal word of god, also known as inerrant, are Dominionist.

Various denominations have moved towards taking the bible literally.
Reform, Calvinist, Baptist, Lutheran, United (Methodist), Catholic, Anglican, Mennonite, Mormon, LDS, Orthodox, non-denominational.

All are represented in the Dominionist movement.
This movement has been building for several decades.

It’s NOT every church. It’s NOT every believer. It’s a slow indoctrination from the tenets of Christianity to the tenets of fascism, libertarianism, and extremist religious beliefs.

And it’s culminated in Trump & autocracy.
These efforts have moved towards a fascist uprising.

When political leaders call on likeminded Christian soldiers to take up arms against their fellow citizens, give them permission to harm and kill, we’ve reached the stage of fascism.
This isn’t religion. It’s a fascist political movement that has hidden behind religion to build momentum and operate beyond scrutiny and detection. For well over two decades.

Several journalists and authors have written about this movement.
The public assumes this is fringe politics. In the US, about 55% of the population are active church going Christians. But Dominionists are limited to about 30-35% of the population. They are the majority of Christians & have been indoctrinated and turned into spiritual warriors.
The remainder of Trump’s electoral base are Q’Anon.

The factor connecting those two communities is the propensity to use magical thinking vs critical thinking.

We all use magical thinking to some degree. But these people have been told to abandon critical thinking altogether.
Every Dominionist church demands their parishioners abandon critical thinking and obey. Obey the inerrant bible and forget secular laws, norms and social conventions.

Some of the charismatic church leaders tell their followers they are in direct contact with god.
Those charlatan charismatic “Christian” leaders tell their followers that god has chosen Trump as his instrument of change to install the Kingdom of God here on earth.

Millions believe this provides the far right the blessing and support of god for their political movement.
It’s not god who has created this movement. It’s people with fascist ideals and malignant intent that have infiltrated and hijacked the evangelical Christian faith communities and used them to achieve political power.
Just like the Dominionists infiltrated & hijacked political parties in most nations across the globe.

Federal and state US Republicans are heavily populated with devout evangelical Christians of multiple denominations. Ted Cruz is Protestant, Amy Coney Barrett is Catholic.
It’s the same movement, different denominations, but aligned goals. The Christianization of North America (not just the US) and the establishment of a theonomy.

Sound crazy? Who would have thought republican police, political leaders, business leaders would storm the Capitol?
Many of us did. Many saw this coming for years. Decades.

Many have warned about this outcome for the last 4 years. Some much longer. I’ve accurately predicted many of the outcomes in Canadian and American politics, months before they occur.
This is fascism. This is organized and globally coordinated fascism hiding behind religion to escape scrutiny.

This phenomenon has swept across the globe. Brazil, Turkey, Hungary have all moved sharply to the far right & authoritarian governance.
All have used faith as a shield.
As you struggle to accept the events happening in the US, and the implications that will impact global world order, please know. The CPC has about 90 MPs that are Dominionist. Ford has several in Ontario and is connected to Charles Mcvety. Kenney has about 50 Dominionist MLAs.
Harper is a devout Evangelical Christian and is currently the Director of the International Democratic Union (IDU). The IDU is connected to Brazil, Hungary, Italy, Turkey and EVERY other nation descending into autocracy. That is not a coincidence.
Kenney, Scheer, and O’Toole are evangelical Christian Dominionists. Leslyn Lewis is a female version. And far more radicalized and committed to theonomy than O’Toole or Scheer. She scares me that she is so extreme. And I don’t scare easy.
Please wake up to the Dominionist agenda. It is not a typical fascist agenda.

None of these people care about the people in Canada. They only want to tear down the institutions of a democracy to pave the way for predatory anarcho-capitalism.
This would be why they continue to exacerbate covid. To enable them to dismantle democratic institutions, challenge the federal authority relentlessly with disinformation and hand out chunks of Canada to their cronies and wealthy donors.
We aren’t waiting for fascism to try to get a toehold here in Canada. It’s here. If you didn’t notice, Harper installed it while you weren’t looking.

Now we have to get rid of it. The first battle is to recognize we are already compromised. Then we get organized.

UCP is at it again. Holding the public’s health hostage to contract negotiations with Radiologists.

That’s what mob bosses do.

“Nice population of Alberta you got there. Sure would be a shame if anything happened to them because you won’t sign this disadvantageous contract.”
For crying out loud Alberta! UCP are behaving like thugs to get contract compliance.

It’s not like we can live safely without Radiologists or rely on Telus Health Babylon Artificial Intelligence Radiology algorithms for accurate readings and reports.
The UCP are using Albertans health and welfare as leverage.

How do you feel being used as a bargaining chip?

I’m feeling fairly deposed as a human being worthy of health and well-being.

I would prefer to depose the UCP.

The likelihood that McConnell and Pence didn’t know at least partially about January 6 is low. Bill Barr left early for a reason.

Since Trump is connected to organized crime, I would bet my bank account lives are dependent upon loyalty and silence about what comes next.
Barr remained silent. Don’t hear anything about Barr being targeted. Pence disobeyed Trump and paid a price. Death threats and becoming a target.

McConnell may have revealed plan B. Which is why the National Guard has been deployed. As well, metal detectors are now mandatory.
McConnell’s wife left cabinet when 25th came up for discussion.

Trump has deep mob connections. McConnell was in tight with Deripaska for aluminum in Kentucky.

The next week is going to take ten years to get here.

This is what the far right stands for. Treason, murder, betrayal.

The ends DO NOT justify the means! Throw that treasonous rat in prison for the remainder of her natural life!

This is not normal! This is a cancerous malignancy hiding behind a sweet smile & sheep’s clothing.
We MUST root out and identify these treasonous people in Canada to prevent them from committing the same violent insurrection here.

This is not a witch hunt. This is preventative measures to secure our nation.

McCarthy was after anyone who didn’t think and believe as he did.
This is vastly different! The people McCarthy vilified and demonized were innocent of the accusations he made.

These people are not innocent. The far right have been actively obstructing covid measures for months & chipping away at democratic norms and principles for decades.

O’Toole’s main job just became distancing the CPC members from the exposed Republican traitors that committed disgusting acts of sedition resulting in 5 deaths so far.
Good luck Mr. O’Toole. People like me have receipts and we have the ability to point out the deep connections between Canadian conservatives and American traitors.
What’s that old saying?...

Lay down with dogs, get up with fleas.

Or

You are known by the company you keep.

Or

Birds of a feather flock together.

Or

Betrayal is an inside job. It isn’t betrayal unless it’s committed by an ally.

Erin O’Toole, in his best about face yet, is sacrificing the white supremacist voter base to attempt to save the Conservative Party from imploding.

Conservatives did vilify Muslim domestic and foreign terrorists. But they have NOT historically condemned white nationalism.
In fact they have fostered relationships with these groups and fought for hate speech to be free speech in Canada. Scheer’s platform in 2019 included sanctions for college campuses that blocked hate speech.
Too little too late O’Toole. CPC does support stochastic terrorism.

Your original slogan was a dog whistle to those who desire to overthrow democracy. Take back Canada?! From whom?

Provincial cons demonstrate cons have no allegiance to democracy once elected.

Obviously there are untreated mental health issues here.

The question to ask ourselves is how is Republican far right toxic propaganda destabilizing those with mental health concerns (vulnerability) so effectively?
A more detailed description of the Atlanta area man can be viewed here.

11alive.com/video/news/cri…
The text messages he wrote reveal a seriously disturbed individual with murderous intent.

While Trump isn’t responsible for the mental problems, he is directly responsible for shaping the intent of the man’s violent fantasies and actions.

That’s stochastic terrorism.
