This would be such a relief to me, as it would suggest that many of the trivial, shallow, grossly unchristian things that circulate from those groups don't reflect what Christians think and believe, but instead follow what games Facebook and serves foreign interests. I understand it's not good news in general, but it's reassuring to people who expect more of Christianity.

I understand it's not good news in general, but it's reassuring to people who expect more of Christianity. Its not reassuring, IMO, because the reason it effectively games Facebook and serves foreign interest in is because American Christians lap it up and relay it.
- JasonFruit 5y agoThat's true, but I'd still rather American Christians be susceptible to the same manipulation as everyone else than that they originate such drivel.
- ftio 5y agoWhat's the difference? My family members who repost these things don't feel manipulated at all, by any of this. They agree with it, passionately.
