Tucker Carlson says trans people are Christians’ “natural enemies” in doomsday rant -
Just weeks after a Daily Wire host called for “eliminating transgenderism,” Fox News host Tucker Carlson described in apocalyptic terms that transgender people are the “natural enemy” of Christianity on his show last night in a rant about the Nashville school shooter, who is possibly transgender.
“The trans movement is the mirror image of Christianity and therefore its natural enemy,” he said.

yesterday some terf was saying the left “tells trans people they are under attack” implying its all hype and scaremongering ginned up
while claiming cis women are under actual attack from, I guess mean tweets and tumblr posts?
so what’s this count as?
Carlson said that Christians are generally very humble people while transgender people are arrogant, and therefore the two groups are incompatible, despite the existence of transgender and transgender-friendly Christians.
“In Christianity, the price of admission is admitting that you’re not God,” Carlson said. “Christians openly can see they have no real power over anything and, for that matter, very little personal virtue. They will tell you to your face if they are sinful and helpless and basically absurd. They are not embarrassed about any of this, they brag about it. ‘That saved a wretch like me’ goes the most famous Christian hymn written in English.”
“The trans movement takes the opposite view,” he continued. “Trans ideology claims dominion over nature itself. ‘We can change the identity we are born with,’ they will tell you with wild-eyed certainty. Christians can never agree with this statement because these are powers they believe God alone possesses. That unwillingness to agree, that failure to acknowledge a trans person’s dominion over nature incites and enrages some in the trans community.”
Carlson provided a bizarro world description of transgender people’s experiences, somehow managing to describe transitioning as the exact opposite of what it is. Trans people often describe transitioning as living as one’s “authentic self,” not “We can change the identity we are born with.” In fact, anti-transgender activists are often proponents of conversation therapy – a set of debunked practices meant to turn LGBTQ+ people into cisgender and heterosexual people – because they believe that transgender people’s identities can be changed.
The coming out process for LGBTQ+ people, especially those who come from more conservative and religious backgrounds, often involves accepting that their gender identity and sexual orientation cannot be changed and separating themselves from people in their lives who want them to change or hide their fundamental identities.
Despite this, Carlson accused transgender people of thinking that “they’re God.”
“People who believe they’re God can’t stand to be reminded that they are not,” he said. “So Christianity and transgender orthodoxy are wholly incompatible theologies. They can never be reconciled. They are on a collision course with each other. One side is likely to draw blood before the other side.”
At least 34 transgender and gender non-conforming people were violently killed in the U.S. in 2022.
Trans People: We want to live, stop killing us.
Fucker Failson: What arrogant bunch of pricks!
Christians: We want to force everyone to live according to our doomsday cult’s doctrine, will harass and bully and even kill you if you question our doctrine or suggest we’re not 100% right and also we want to make world a shithole to game the prophecy ouf our god’s return!
Fucker Failson: Such humble people
-AdminFascism has ideological roots in christianity and capitalism. TE"r"f"s have sided with the fascists since day one, denouncing any alleigance to radical feminism by default (not even talking about other transphobes who were just unsure whether to side with fascists or Nazis).
This shitshow is anything but surprising.

Trade Unions in the British Industrial Revolution
Trade unions were formed in Britain during the Industrial Revolution (1760-1840) to protect workers from unnecessary risks using dangerous machines, unhealthy working conditions, and excessive hours of work. The trade union movement was vigorously resisted by governments and employers, but by the 1850s, unions had grown powerful enough to win better protection and contracts for their members.
