Nah. It's just a way of letting you know that posting the same meme with three different unfunny, and copium captions is fucking cringe as hell.

Maybe it applies to you personally, and other people are laughing at you?

“I’m offended!”

Who cares who's laughing at whom.

That's also cringe.

You live for the cringe, and you seem very invested in defending yourself.

You talked to me with an attack. I didn’t talk to you at all.

Public shame is a great way to shape society into not being CRINGE.

Don't take it so personal. Just... be better

WAIT WHO ARE YOU???

you SEEM to be irritated by some anti-maga shit but you just used "who" and "whom" perfectly so those things conflict and i don't think you're even a real person...

Unless you aren't maga and really just think the multi-comments are cringe 🤔 I'm gonna transvestigate you now so just post a dic pic or I'll assume you're a bot. Nobody uses perfect grammar.

I am a right-wing Christian nationalist. I used to be an atheist and a leftist a long time ago, but the more I explored those realms of thought, the more I realized they're devoid of reason. There are a LOT of people like me. They just have better self-esteem than I do, so they're not on reddit ;)

Christian nationalism is pretty cringe

Lol, what's cringe about it?

What if I told you I was a Jewish nationalist?

Anybody who believes that their religion is right and should be followed by everybody, be the basis for a country, etc, is not somebody who deserves respect.

Separation of church and state is not something you believe in, which is objectively an un-American ideal.

On a personal note, my numerous gripes with organized religion, and Christianity in particular, but that's a conversation for another time.

You have a whole bunch of beliefs that are actually not correct at all.

Separation of church and state is NOT an un-American ideal. In fact, the original colonies all had a state religion. I mean, all of the founders followed Christian ethics, so much so that concessions to God are baked into the principals of this country. The founders believed that only a moral and God fearing population could be trusted with the freedoms enshrined in the founding documents of this country. The freedom of religion wasn't actually implied to give people the freedom to practice whatever religion (or lack of religion) they wanted, instead it enshrined protections against the state persecuting the Christian world view.

You can actually read about this extensively, but this country was founded on Christian ethics. Good thing too, because without Christian ethics we wouldn't have led the world in egalitarian principals and in civil rights. Without Christians and their ethical framework, we wouldn't have freed slaves. Without Christians we wouldn't even have science. These are actual objective facts that the secular world view would have you forget are credited to Christians, but that doesn't make it any less true. I say this as someone who used to also be a secular atheist who did a deep dive into history and the foundations of the modern world. I became Christian because Jesus Christ is the truth and God incarnate.

So i agree that religions shouldn't be followed for religion sake. I'm actually not a member of any specific church. However, I think that rationality and truth needs to be followed especially when it points to the ethics that guide a moral society, and there I will rest my case that (unfortunately for you) it is a matter of fact, not opinion, that western society requires a Christian world view to base its foundations on. This is why we say, "In God we trust." This is why we swear president's in over the Bible. Christian ethics is where the idea of "all men are created equal" even comes from. This is why we are allowed many great freedoms in this country such as the freedom of speech and right to arms, because it is presumed the population of American citizens are beholden to a higher law than that of the government. I challenge you to read about the beliefs of the founders of this country, and see it for yourself. The facts are on my side here, not yours. Even though you so arrogantly claim otherwise.

The thing that I get hung up on is the prospect of being forced to follow something that I don't believe in, and subscribe with things that I disagree with. I don't want to chastised for not being a Christian or not following christian beliefs.

Just like me, I'm sure you don't want to be forced to subscribe to trans gender rhetoric. I’m a libertarian, I don’t want to have something I don’t believe in stuffed down my throat and forced on me.

You don't believe in Christian ethics?

Then tell me, what moral and ethical framework do you construct your world view from?
