I always think this one is a good jumping off point

anthropomorphic

The funny thing is this word literally means "having the form of a human" and abstractly it could cover a lot more than just furries.

Reminder that r/neoliberal was created by and is astroturfed by a fossil fuel think tank called the Progressive Policy Institute, as part of their "Neoliberal Project"

PPI has been around since 1989 and views itself as Bill Clinton's "idea mill" aka think tank. Why I call them a fossil fuel think tank is detailed here. They oppose climate action, defend fracking, and receive donations from Exxon Mobil.

it's safe to say that their upvotes are farmed, and their organic support is mostly bourgeois economics and political science majors and interns who hope to work for PPI or a similar think tank one day. It's basically a Neera Tanden farm.

The creator of r/neoliberal, Colin Mortimer, is the Director of the Center for New Liberalism at PPI, which seeks to "develop a salient identity around the center-left values that have increasingly come under fire in this age of populism."

Had to brush up on this stuff again, to make sure not to talk out of my ass: Evangelicalism is an interdenominational movement within Protestantism, while Baptism is more of a specific Protestant denomination (with its own sectarian flavors).

So not all protestants are evangelicals, but all evangelicals are protestants, and different denominations within protestantism may or may not have a strong evangelical constituency.

redditors famously don't like it when you quote stalin

I think the person who made this thread is confusing the evangelical position with the baptist position.
