    What was your job? I doubt the “foreigner god” has anything to do with you losing your job

      I won’t go into specifics for my own privacy but I was a government contractor for the United States federal government. DOGE is apparently responsible for my department losing funding.

      While you are correct that the “foreigner god” isn’t directly responsible, but that’s due to the fact that the conservatives (or just the ruling class in general) didn’t drape themselves in Christianity they would pick up whatever is most convenient.

      The reason I use the term “foreigner god” is because I don’t like any religions except for those of the aboriginals of the Americas. I’m a Mesoamerican history fanboy and from my perspective nothing good came from the Old World discovering the New World. Christ is a foreigner and so am I, both alien in nature on soil that would have been better off without us.

        Christ is also a foreigner in Europe and Asia, though. I don’t know why God’s nationality really matters
