Behind the Inclusive-Sounding Ads of this $100 Million PR-Blitz-for-Jesus it's the Same Old Conservative Christian Fantasy This month, a $100 million advertising campaign and website have been launched nationwide to help a particular figure rebrand. In the current climate, just who, do you think, might warrant such a mass...

I’ve been covering the “He Gets Us” Jesus PR campaign since 2022. I was the first or at least one of the first to expose it as a right-wing evangelical recruitment effort, though RD and I didn’t get credit when bigger outlets picked the story up

and so it was that while Israel dropped bombs on the packed city of Rafah, the only person with the power to make it stop was otherwise engaged, dropping dank memes about a sporting event conspiracy on a white nationalist’s website

Non-profit rebranding Jesus for Gen Z also funds hate group The Servant Foundation, known for its He Gets Us ad campaign, is the main funder for Alliance Defending Freedom

Your reminder the organization behind those Christian "He Gets Us" ads you'll see during the Super Bowl also gives tens of millions of dollars to the Alliance Defending Freedom, the far-right lawyers who overturned Roe and write most of the anti-trans laws in the country

the "he gets us" campaign for a loving, modern, inclusive christianity is run by white christian nationalists who do not believe in what they want you to think they're promising

The organization responsible for attempts to re-criminalize homosexuality just ran an ad about how "Jesus didn't teach hate"

The He Gets Us campaign is run by The Servant Foundation, which has been waging lawfare on gay and trans people through tens of millions in donations to the far-right legal activist group The Alliance Defending Freedom since 2018

This isn’t new. They haven’t written new policies in Nola for over at least 12 yrs.

When I can see past my rage and panic about what he has and wants to do, I keep wondering how horrific was his childhood, to create such a person.

I think his girth makes it look like that. And all the bluster. Actually, he’s shorter than Obama even with the heels. Not by a lot but in his twisted narcissistic brain any height difference is likely deeply threatening.

Actually, I think yes. Trump wears kitten heels (there’s photos) and his massive front, plus the heel over power the back end.

I think this is how a non-drag queen manages standing in heels. He’s being pulled forward and the only way to counterbalance that is to slump bc he likely lacks the ab strength (and skill) to stand up straight in those lifts in his boots.

True. But he made it quite vocally last year. I had hoped it was true because I think he’s a really good human. And loved that he was at Tulane.

Wonder what happened to the ‘I’m going to retire at Tulane’ desire.

I recently saw a TikTok listing all the movies coming in 2024. ALL sequels - across all studios. Not a single ‘new’ title. I thought this really is the end times. We aren’t creating only rehashing.

Mother Nature tired of overheating. She gonna blow up whatever to cool down. But seriously, all systems seek equilibrium, and our current climate is dramatically out of balance. The system will find a way to normalize.

Thinking that protesting an actual genocide is anti-Semitic bc the Israeli govt is the one committing the genocide is so reductive. And is actually incorrect. Anti-Israeli govt is not anti-Semitic. And there are lots of Jewish people confirming this.
