CULT: GOVERNMENT IS NOW THE NEW RELIGION?<\/h1>\n

A new magazine cover of the Jacobin is striking a nerve after it appears that the magazine is saying the government is now god and our religion, to be worshipped. It sure begs the age-old question: who do you serve?<\/p>\n

If we are ever to be free, we have to remove our consent. That goes for those who worshipped Trump as the messiah as well (and there were plenty.)\u00a0 We should have never allowed ourselves to see each other as slaves to the ruling class, submitting to democracy (which is mob rule) and letting others have power over anyone else for any reason. Our inability to take the moral high ground has led to us this point in history. Government is now your god. Like it or not.<\/p>\n

Describing Trump supporters as a cult has become a trope among his Democratic critics. Which seems ironic, considering how the very same crowd in the past four years tended to invest emotionally in whoever they hoped would end Trump\u2019s presidency. Special Counsel Robert Muller probably received the lion\u2019s share of the prayers, though figures like ex-FBI director James Comey or even Trump\u2019s fixer-turned-critic Michael Cohen basked in some limelight. \u2013RT<\/em><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Here\u2019s the cover of the magazine in its entirety for you to have a look at:<\/p>\n

Biden\u2019s larger-than-life, bare-chested figure is shown surrounded by \u2018holy spirits\u2019 of Twitter and \u2018saints\u2019. The latter include kneeling Democrat leaders in the US Congress, Dr. Anthony Fauci, fawning journalists, and manager-class devotees eagerly consuming the \u2018holy scripture\u2019 from what is probably the latest Barack Obama memoir. The former president himself is shown as a six-winged seraphim bracketed by the likewise angelic Hillary and Bill Clinton, with the trio gazing benignly from the heavens. A crowd of mask-wearing suburban laymen on Earth celebrates Biden\u2019s ascension. A pair of Reaper drones complete the picture, providing a clear hint for the doubtful that the image should be taken with a grain of salt.-RT<\/em><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
