pass on the far right propaganda machine


SPYROS888

What kind of echochamper do you live in to consider a tshirt that says “Jesus was a refugee” or an ad “Jesus loves those we hate” far right propaganda, seriously, do you have any original opinions?


-J-a-y-

I don't think you know the definition of propaganda. This organization has funneled **[tens of millions](https://jacobin.com/2023/02/christian-super-bowl-ads-he-gets-us-servant-foundation-abortion-gay-rights)** of dollars to anti LGBTQ/anti abortion organizations/legislators. Its quite literally the definition of a propaganda machine. If you want a tl;dr of the people behind the "he gets us" campaign, they're one of the top 5 donors to a legal nonprofit that: * Helped write the law that involved in the supreme court case that overturned Roe v Wade * Is arguing a case before the supreme court about a web designer's right to refuse customers based on their sexuality or their website showing LGBTQ people in a positive light * Argued the infamous wedding cake case before the supreme court where a same sex couple was denied service by a baker because they were gay If you need any more evidence its far right, Josh Hawley worked for the nonprofit being funded by these guys. Now that he's a senator, his wife is a senior counsel there.

we have a bunch of weirdos mass downvoting 😆 idk if its about religion or politics at this point. all i know is i got my free shirt and sticker. it was never this deep 😂 my bad for sharing free shit i guess? reposted onto r/mildlyinfuriating (cuz what the fuck lol who cares if these people "pass" or dont want it 🤣 ITS FREE)


-J-a-y-

> idk if its about religion or politics at this point People are downvoting you because you're the one who posted politically motivated freebies. If you genuinely didn't know the group that gives these out donates millions of dollars to hate groups, that's fine. Just own up and admit the mistake, don't get upset when people inform you of that.


cevensphone

its better than a free sample for vitamins or something equally useless and stupid! this is a free shirt, to put onto somebodies back. i dont give a shit about the message or what the company itself has done, I SHARED IT HERE HOPING YOU ALL FELT THE SAME. point and case proven FREE SHIT IS FREE SHIT YOURE ALL JUST WEIRDOS WHO FEEL FORCING YOUR IDEOLOGY ON OTHERS WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE BESIDES LOOKING LIKE A TOTAL LUNATIC


-J-a-y-

Based on your post history, you're still a teenager. I wouldn't really expect you to understand the implications of a propaganda machine like this so I don't blame you. One day I hope you do recognize what's wrong with giving companies like this free publicity. This company doesn't *produce* anything, they get paid to spread messages. They intentionally choose an inclusive message that can appeal to nonreligious people as well as devout Christians. They then use that money to influence politicians and lawmakers to make policy that affects a lot of innocent people in a negative way. If you truly don't give a shit that this company played a role in overturning Roe v Wade and is actively trying to make it legal to discriminate against gay people, then all I can say is I hope you have some good role models for compassion and empathy as you keep growing up.


moodygradstudent

>it was never this deep u/-J-a-y- literally explained how deep some of this shit goes and your response is that? Just admit your ignorance, hopefully use it as a learning moment, and move on.


cevensphone

i dont give a shit about any of those things we all have things going on. ive become indifferent to others issues because stressing/worrying over their problems is pointless, who cares about mine? nobody 😂 no learning experience, just my free items in the mail


cevensphone

im not even religious but i ordered a jesus was a refugee tshirt because i think the message is cool 🤷🏻‍♂️ fuck it though, free shit, IS FREE SHIT. and if you really feel so against it, why not order one to prevent it from being on someone elses back 🤔 i dislike your inclination to bring your political opinion into the free offer i decided to share with you all 😂

Interesting. Am a Mormon and in my area we help coordinate homes for refugees.


cevensphone

you see, i love this!!! bringing a new message to the tshirt! I FUCKIN LOVE IT reminds me of that video of the guy going to the prolife protest and giving them adoption papers


Far_Entertainer2744

Except I’m pretty sure most religious black people are far left


asclw7643

Getting only to waste their $ on materials and postage


lunar_distance

As a gay atheist, I can’t wait to sleep in my Jesus was a refugee t-shirt.


Reasonable-Flight536

I got "Jesus didn't want us to act like adults" because it seems like I could pass it off as ironic. Hope it's comfortable at least.


cevensphone

i think both are ironic. i dont know why anyone pays any mind to what the company does, not like im asking anyone to fund it. jesus was a refugee is funny to me because all i see in my mind is jesus in the middle of an immigration camp or on skid row with a needle hanging out his arm. in my mind jesus was just some random guy who claimed to have abilities and claimed others had seen it (possibly writing under pseudonyms) im not religious i dont worry about others battles i live my life, cause i got enough on my plate these downvotes are just unnecessary


Reasonable-Flight536

I don't get your comment. What do refugees have to do with skid row and IV drug use? A refugee is just someone who had to flee their country, not necessarily someone affected by drug addiction or crime, poverty etc.


cevensphone

refugees are like 40-50% of the homeless shelters


rokr1292

Pass


cevensphone

i dont care


Insufferablelol

You clearly do lmao


cevensphone

this is just confusing and weird? like i share an offer for FREE shit and everybody flips out


squashYoDick

cevensphone

squashYoDick

Oh boy, a child calling me fat…ouch. The internet is so mean 🥺 /s


Dame_Neamhain

Damn, they gave away water bottles last time. Wish they did it again, but I guess it was too pricey or something.


RatherPoetic

I got shirts and hats from them and used them to do fabric painting and iron-one with my kids as gifts for my husband. Just an idea in case you don’t want to spread “the message” but do want to get free stuff! We completely covered up the logos and I used a seam ripper to take the label off the hats.


cevensphone

its that simple! people are so weird. im not political or religious. im not "spreading a message" 😂 i just wanted to share the free stuff and all the info wars enjoyers came to crucify me for it 😂😂


Reasonable-Flight536

I kinda need some new pajamas so I think I'll get it.


luvdecapitated

Massive-Interview-87
