Pretty excited to watch the Waco Netflix series. I remember the Branch Davidian incident from when I was a kid. Iām really interested to see how different it is from what I remember. I was a member at a fundamentalist church at the time and I can remember adults in the church defending David Koresh
This is because fundamentalist conservative types are libertarians with respect to the government interfering with their activities. They will tend to leap to the defense of anyone else being āoppressedā by the government because they want a free hand to do what they want to do, and will frame it as āfreedom of religionā instead of just, you know, breaking the law.
One comment that stuck in my mind was one of the deacons saying āThe only thing the government has showed us is a guy reading from the Bible! They are coming after Christians!ā Even back then when I was really into the whole Church thing, I was skeptical of that take.
New episode of Picard is unreal good from the opening. Finallyā¦Geordi!!!
Got a theory brewing about character reveals.
Beverly Crusher is the secret changeling. The real Beverly is already deadā¦or held hostage and will be entirely different than who we think is the real Doctor Crusher.
