Night! #dogsofcoso

@Longjacket the perfect list

@Anouk And some lecture us on why staying is the moral thing to do

@SassySherry7 There are only two forks my brother likes to use. He’s a normal guy other than that.

@BosFanTina It is

Not the calm day I had pictured. Warning loud children and dogs

@andreviens Have you watched How to ADHD on YouTube? It’s really useful and fun.

@kerrywth I know this is a positive place, but I’m feeling a twinge of resentment towards you. You are the me I wanted to be today.

@BlueStateBabe I'll need an update

@BlueStateBabe that story is a damn tragedy

@rpardee 😂consider me warned

I’ve come to realize that one of the best aspects of coso is that people aren’t constantly lecturing and exhorting each other to do or think something. We are permitted to just be.

@Dane one of my faves

Here is a blog from 2017 in which someone discusses their personal experiences growing up among #ChristianNationalists and the hope that people put in #MikePence #religion https://www.autostraddle.com/i-was-trained-for-the-culture-wars-in-home-school-awaiting-someone-like-mike-pence-as-a-messiah-367057/

While the groups I have written about have been evangelical and fundamentalist protestants, a few Catholic or Catholic adjacent groups have similar beliefs. For instance, Justice Amy Coney Barrett's People of Praise embraces many of the same gender and political beliefs. While obviously Barrett works outside of the home, she has been in a subservient role within the belief system. #ChristianNationalists

@peterquirk oops. Yes. I’ll fix. Thank you

#ChristianNationalists. #Quiverfull Though children are kept out of most nongroup activities, they participate in such groups as Generation Joshua, TeenPact,6 and
debate groups, which prepare them for social roles (Butler, 2013). The
emphasis of many activities is on strong debating skills, so that the
Joshua Generation can convince others of the superiority of their way
of life, or at least win access to political power.

The Quiverfull movement utilizes some of the same methods as those
of the Twelve Tribes, but Quiverfull also plays a longer, more political
game by educating their children in political debate and politics, and
by giving birth to enough children to gain greater political influence
(Crank, 2005). #ChristianNationalists

1 fear of #ChristianNationalists is that secular humanism will lead to a world government. This fear has been disseminated since the 80 at least.
(LaHaye, 1980; Campbell, 2017). Because of this fear, they believe children should be trained up to hold important government posts and fight against a secular state. For more info, you can read this article that I wrote with a colleague. warning: The article does discuss #childabuse https://www.ijcam.org/articles/religion-and-state-authority-control-of-the-child Page 16 has some of the pertinent info.
