They are soulless.
It's true. I have a friend that's a barber. He says that if you look closely at the hairline of Democrats, you can see "emét" inscribed. While maybe not enough to make an immediate difference with elections, he has been covertly removing the aleph from them while giving a trim.

Does he have tips for trimming around the horns?

I don’t quite see how the opening post helps folks take the ‘non-Democrat’ side seriously.

But, I suspect that this is more about gumming up the board, via efforts from angry active believers and/or other ‘non-Democrat’ types. ; )
I believe it falls into Shades' category of building a monument.
As in, another sock puppet?

Might be. Might not be. The monument looks familiar, or maybe it just rhymes. 😉

Hmm. Well, given the nature and mode of the judgement expressed, I'd prefer 'scary', if that's all right with you.

Oh, and that guy could go out tomorrow and buy an assault rifle if he felt it was a good way to deal with all the evil people.
I don't know that it is always scary. I don't find Blair Hodges to be a really scary guy.

The opening post was intended as satire, wasn't it?

Please tell me that it was ... please ...
It has gotten to the point where I assumed it was not. I figured the worms had finished the poster's brain so that worm poop is all that is left. But Chap perhaps you are correct.

For someone who is LDS to describe someone as soulless is to say they are something other than human. After all, LDS theology says all humans have souls, doesn’t it? Religious fanatics spouting eliminationist rhetoric qualifies as scary, in my book.

Yeah, if what I had said only allowed that outcome, then I would understand this response. But what I said is that not all religiously motivated politics is scary. Example I offered was Blair Hodges, who is a Mormon progressive, whom I do not find scary.
