I still haven’t figured how to escape an ampersand in Lemmy post titles (which regards ‘&’ as a control character). So I chose as similar an alternative character as possible. \

    The HE GETS US campaign has to be my most hated reddit advert of all time.

    Ohhh is that why he allows all the atrocities of humanity? Because he knows deep down we want to suffer? He lets children be trafficked and murdered because he gets us. He lets newborns know nothing but pain before starving or suffocating in a trash bag in some piss soaked back alley because HE GETS US

    They say “GOD IS GOOD” on a facebook post about a child waking up from a coma. Okay what about the thousands of children who didn’t wake up from their coma today? Where’s his credit for that? They happily attribute every petty little fortune to god and put their attribution-blinders on to all the horror.

    “no it’s satan who is responsible for all the bad things!”

    Well isn’t that fucking convenient! The problem is that their god is omnipotent, all knowing and all powerful; satan is not. So anything satan does inherently must be done with god’s tacit approval.

    HE GETS US

      It’s all nonsense and one major thing I don’t miss about reddit, even if it was ironically one of the only places I could go where I could express my athiestic views. I heard they actually might have used the ad tracking for political spending too, to make it even more sinister.

      Even worse is the idea that God uses tragedies for our edification, and won’t give us anything we can’t handle. Fuck anyone who can say that with a straight face, and fuck their insular bubble

      I mean, you don’t even need to follow the train of thought that far. Why was a child in a coma to begin with?

      Dead children go to heaven anyway, so there won’t be suffering
