  I’m used to ‘Packaged in the USA’ labeling on Made in [somewhere else] products. ‘Designed’…same-same, definitely since NAFTA, maybe before. The bible verses are new to me.

    I looked it up:

    For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

    So you have to believe that he existed, but not follow his teachings cuz they’re too woke. Got it.

    Didn’t even see that. And it’s coded so you actually have to pick up your cipher book! Or maybe it’s a dogwhistle and every christofascist worth their salt knows what it stands for.

      The second. John 3:16 is a very popular verse in the Baptist crowd I grew up around in the 90s. I don’t think it’s any more a fascist dog whistle than a Jesus fish. YMMV on how christofascist that is.

      Like, I never went to church and it’s ingrained in my brain from my classmates and reading bumper stickers.

        It is nearly always in the large crowds somewhere at sportball events.

        I believe the exact verse is:

        “And that’s the bottom line because Stone Cold said so.”

        What a difference in where one grows up. I have never once heard about John 3:16 and I had no idea what it is. You learn something new every day, I guess

      John 3:16 is an all-time well known verse. Only one I could say without looking it up.

    Right! So maybe “John-washing” cuz it’s all about the book of John.

      yeah, the only one of the Beatitudes in Matthew they seem to like is the one where they get to adopt a persecution complex. The stuff about being meek and merciful is damned un-American.
