Hard to imagine that politics is the new religion for these people when every single one of them identifies as the same religion, and that religion spends its Sundays spouting Fox News talking points form the pulpit.
This is Protestantism: My Righteousness Means Your Money.

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Ginni Thomas has reassured the American people that she is doing everything in her power to keep her husband’s mounting ethical issues from interfering with her work on the United States Supreme Court.
Acknowledging that her husband’s controversies were a “distraction,” Thomas said, “They shouldn’t keep me from doing the important work I was sent here to do.”
“There are reproductive rights to shred and environmental protections to erase,” she said. “Regardless of the mess Clarence has gotten himself into, I need to keep my focus.”
Calling her post as Associate Justice of the Supreme Court “a job I’ve loved for the past three decades,” Thomas said, “I’m hopping mad that Clarence would do anything to jeopardize that. But anyone who thinks that I’m giving less than a hundred per cent to my work doesn’t know what Ginni Thomas is made of.”
Your post raises the old “dumb” versus “evil” argument. I also think the question is what is politics about, power or policy.
To begin with the overwhelming support for Donald grab her by the …" Trump proves beyond all doubt that “values” in front of the word voter is and has always been code for race.
Or to put another way, if we are experiencing “decreasing religiosity” it is only because the veil of true motivation has been lifted and revealed.
So while religion can be followed blindly, I do not agree the same can be said for politics. Finally, notice how “WOKE” has become code for anything that threatens White and White male and Christian dominance.
That is in my view it is not decreasing religiosity as the religious aspect was always a phony excuse to provide a policy excuse that is really nothing but a desire for power.

Nah, most of them are also the same religious fanatics they always were.
The linked article doesn’t describe what the close to a million bucks bought in the way of manual counting equipment. Pencils, paper, and calculators? Chairs and tables? Desk lamps?
Legally bland?
A penny for their thoughts…
FIVE TONS of dimes in a Walmart parking lot???
What was that driver thinking when he left the unmarked trailer in that Walmart lot and drove home to sleep a while??
And the thieves didn’t manage to steal alla those dimes.

Between this and getting shot for shop lifting… I think I’ll pass on visiting any Walmart stores.

But can that model be kept off the grid? How can we be sure?
Well duh, it’s purely analog, unlike this model. Me and the pillow guy got this.
Wonder what effect will this have in Dominion’s defamation lawsuit against Lindell?
Rickert told TPM that her brother, a psychologist, once said that Americans have replaced their spiritual life with politics. “I think that’s a fairly good description,” she said, “because these people are religious fanatics about their politics.”
I find this observation to be enlightening.
I dunno, looks kinda woke to me…
And aren’t abacuses Chinese? Hard pass.
Ah, almost had forgotten Slats Grobnik!
The 2020 election had more partisan Republican poll watchers than any election in history. Interesting strategy on the rightists’ part, doubling down to the n’th power with allegations that could only possibly be true if their own observers are a bunch of blistering incompetents, liars, traitors or all-of-the-above.
What you mean. In November 2024 the vote is going to be 99.2% Republican. They are switching to manual because that makes it much easier to manipulate the results. Especially since it’s going to be the same dipshits that are counting the votes.
And yet they are probably petrified over the prospect that “Sharia law” is coming to the good ol’ U.S. of A.
Morons.
