Following someone's suggestion on another thread, I've decided to watch Bad Faith. A must-see for every American voter.

Bad Faith is a documentary film which came out this year about how christian nationalism came to be a serious threat to democracy, in the United States.

Focusing particularly on the Heritage Foundation and its key people like Paul Weyrich and Jerry Falwell, the film discuss the movement's ideological ties with white supremacist, its avowed aim of usurping the US government and the many, many devious initiatives that the movement put forward over the last decades to build their own separate culture, in order to try to smother what they see as perverse, immoral left-wing hegemony over society.

Bad Faith exposes the dangers of christian nationalism and the ties it developed over the years with the republican party (including Ronald Reagan) and, most recently, the administation of Donald Trump and the surrounding MAGA culture.

It paints a picture of profoundly dishonest and deranged people who claim to be the purest christians there is, all the while showing little or no interest for actual christian values. Angry, bigotted, authoritarian people ready to shoot and already assuming that one day they will have to fight a holy war against the government and a society which may not conform to their beliefs.

Sometimes, people who denounce "evil" in the name of Jesus truly are the product of the deepest bowels of hell and these people truly deserve to be crushed.

Another question is why aren’t USA boxers being televised enough to be noticed who goes through trials to try to qualify for the Olympics?

I ask this because everyone knows the 2024 Paris Olympics are coming up, and there are some boxers who qualified for the Olympics, but not many are noticed or known to be publicized or televised to get attention drawn to them. The ones I've seen garner the most attention to qualify for the Olympics lately are gymnastics with Simone Biles, Gabby Douglas, Jordan Biles, and Shilese Jones, so it makes me wonder and ask why those who are upcoming boxers aren't showing Olympic trials to be broadcast for those to watch for everyone to be familiar with for who would be qualified to go to Paris for the Olympics, but people probably aren’t interested in watching.

Also, there still hasn’t been a guarantee or word about the sport of boxing being a part of the 2028 LA Olympics. I question: Does it still matter at this point for boxing to be part of the Olympics this year, but come 2028, there’s probably no chance?
