Charlottesville, Trump, GOPe and Pentecostals
I had to stop reading Twitter, I was becoming so angry. All the tweets from spineless GOPe politicians, falling over each other to score political points by criticising the POTUS over his denouncing of alt-right extremists. Most are out right lies, claiming Trump didn't clearly denounce the groups.
Then I'm reading through FB and see this post from a UPC person, who's black, ranting against white Pentecostals for voting for Trump. When someone posts Trump's statement denouncing white supremacists and neo Nazis, the dude gets even more mad, responding in all caps.
From then on, replies are mostly black vs white, with such anger.
These are supposed to be brothers, and yet they're arguing over if Trump was clear enough or not. A couple even mentioned this as an example why the PAW formed, because whites don't admit to racism.
I'm angry. I'm sad. I'm sick of all of this division. I'm tired of the media and politicians trying to implement a silent coup.
It's bad enough to hear coworkers argue and read the news. Now we have Pentecostal/Apostolic brethren fighting over race. We do not well.
