Shadow government

Oh boy I wonder who THAT could possibly be!? Oh! Wait! The church! The religious institutions!
A retard "But I'm religious! The church can't be a shadow government!"

Hym "So... They aren't an unelected body that influences politicians and billionaires and millionaires and every other kind of 'aire' to shape public policy and perception to control the behavior of the people in out country? It's not direct and/or indirect control of people's moral framework, is it? Like, you don't have millions of people who have ceded (entirely) their personal morality and their own claim to shape the moral landscape to an overarching body of authority and they're not going to act in accordance with that authority, indefinitely, are they? Because that SOUNDS like a shadow government to me!"

A different retard "It's not the religion! It's the nationalism and fundamentalism (taking the religion literally, like, actually believing the shit makes it "fundamentalism" and is, therefore, the bad kind of religion)!"

Hym "And what's difference nationalism and religion? You're either on the side of God or you're not. ("I mEaNt ThE cOuNtRy!" She interjects) It's a 'religious country.' The religion IS the country. What's the difference between the fundamentalism and religion? You're either doing what the religion or you're not! What would religious on-fundamentalism look like? It's religion but instead of doing what's in the religion they just do something else... THAT'S religious non-fundamentalism. It doesn't even make sense."

Government Shutdown

Oh hey, would you look at that? They're taking another vacation! Fantastic! I'll just sit here and let the infection continue to eat away at my brainz and then you just fuck off into the night and do whatever, right?
Hym "Ho! That is not a surprise at all. There was never a 'Well maybe we won't shut it down if so-and-so does whatever.' No. The government shutdown was always going to happen. They are going to do to the rest of you what they are doing to me and what they have been doing at those town halls. Walk away from you as you're talking to them. Go to their homes. Pull up the shutters. And wait it out. Wait for you to tire yourselves out. They are going to come back later with 'Alright guys we did it. We did the deal-contract and now we can get back to talking about UFOs. FuUuUuck me! No I'll just sit here though. Don't mind me."
