College Republicans: “Wishing you a happy and prosperous Kwanza!”
MTG: “Stop. It’s a fake religion created by a psychopath. You aren’t bringing in new voters, you are turning them away. People are tired of pandering and BS.”

Sure, pander only to White Supremacists under the delusion that it doesn’t count as “pandering” and wonder why other races aren’t too keen on supporting your party.
@Creativerealms #108500
Possibly she’s referring to Malcolm X or Louis Farrakhan? Both of them promoted the holiday, but neither of them created it.
@Vanto #108527
Yeah, that’s probably it. Of course, it’s also worth mentioning that the creator was a major figure in the Black Power movement, and the US government around that time REALLY wanted the leaders killed or locked up, so you can ask serious questions about whether the whole thing was a setup…

That’s it and definitely a vile act. That said, it wasn’t connected to the Kwanza stuff and the holiday itself is fine and a great celebration of Black American pride.
Unlike “White Pride”, it isn’t based on racism but rather a historically oppressed people reclaiming something of their roots. Whites have no excuse because they aren’t oppressed whereas Black Americans are mainly descended from West African slaves (but whose knowledge of which exact country is mostly lost to the sands of time due to centuries of oppression).
It’s not a traditional African festival, it’s about being an African American.
That said, if the guy who came up with the idea was a torturing monster, he must be called out for it, and I hope and pray he regretted what he did.
That said, I have no problem with the holiday and Mad Maggie is a bigoted moron. She needs to be zoarched by Jewish Space Lasers, Muslim Ray Guns and Christian Holy Hand Grenades.
Okay. Happy Winter Solstice. Happy Festivus. Happy Hanukkah. Happy Holidays.
Happy now, Marjiepoos...?! [/Doug Piranha-levels of sarcasm]
Stop. It’s a fake religion created by a psychopath
Millions drowned in a 'Flood': all those innocent unborn murdered when their mothers drowned.
If psychopathy creates fake religions, then you should stop your BS and become an Atheist.
Don't make me get out my Hosea 13:16: Murder, Abortion & War Crimes.
Long-time Christian Jonathan Edwards became one purely on the basis of he realising that he could be a good person without a 'God', least of all a religion.
So what's your excuse - certainly for continuing to be part of a worse -than false religion by definition of it's hyper-psychopath of a deity - Marje...?!
Hosea, Joshua, Deuteronomy, Leviticus all show god as psychopath. Unless she says something like the demiurge wrote those books her argument is dead
Anyone wishing unconditional happiness on others is, according to Republicans, not really a Republican and an evil to be stamped out.
… And then when you factor in the racial subtext…
Confused?
