Most noteworthy for me is the fact that more Americans think that porn (52%) and homosexuality (39%) are wrong than spanking children (23%) and being ultra wealthy (18%).

I'm from a MAGA cult fake hypocrite 'Christian' family like this.

That I've had to ghost to the point they likely think I am dead, to finally stop their abuse and escape their dysfunction.

Been trying to explain the level of moral depravity of the average American for around 25 years now... most people acted like I was being hysterical, untill very recently, when we elected basically the AntiChrist, certainly a insurrectionist rapist corrupt traitor conman, twice.

Beyond 1/3 of the country openly and obviously being duplicitious anti-democracy theocrat bigots... almost everyone else just acted like that was fine, at every level of society, interpersonal to institutional, for my entire life.

We, as Americans, deserve this.

Everyone else does not.

Oh sweet (non-religious) jeez....yes, the american average numbnut probably deserves that. But the poor fucks like you, being open-minded in such a ...well...that must really hurt, especially if it's the own family that's like that. As I always say: cut out toxicity in your life, no matter if it's family or not. I simply couldn't deal with such people. I only like to surround myself with people I like and respect.

So, my condolences that you have to live there AND in such a family :( And yeah "christian" is almost always synonym for "xtreme hypocrite"
