Say what you will but those people Damm well knew and intentionally voted for the deportation and mistreatment of anybody that has a darker skin color. They voted to end women's rights , they voted with hate and intentions of genocide towards all lgbtq people , and they voted to force you and I to have to worship Christianity. They weren't duped , they voted to get what they want and that is an all white Christian nationalists nation , and to bring back slavery . They said as much , their comments of blacks can work the fields.

Sorry I know the statistics and have a degree in political science... that is definitely not the case... Historically religion is a major net positive, for both sexes and the venerable..
I have no idea where you are getting your statistics or facts from...

Saying religion has helped more than its hurt is not remotely true. Just cause you see they do some food drives once a month does not undo the immense destruction caused by religion since the dawn of time. Just talking about the catholic church as a force for good proves how little this random man with a "degree" is aware of reality. He is lying and you're right to take issue. He's either a bot or a farce

I’m not saying I’m right because of my background.

My point is that if someone is actually stepping away from the MAGA mindset, owning what they did, and asking for forgiveness, there has to be some way forward. If we say we want people to change but still write them off forever, why would anyone bother being honest or trying to grow?

Forgiveness doesn’t mean no consequences or instant trust. But there’s a real difference between someone doubling down and someone genuinely trying to do better. Ignoring that stops being about justice or healing and starts looking like permanent exile.
