Buzzfeed Is A Joke

Once again, the left attacks successful Christians

Buzzfeed Is A Joke

So last week the fake news site Buzzfeed (along with others such as the not so wonderful Cosmopolitan) released an article about Chip and Joanna Gaines who have the show "Fixer Upper" on HGTV. Now the piece is just another cowardly attack on Christians because Chip and Joanna go to a church where, get this, the pastor reads the Bible! What a bigot am I right? The article has since been updated, but the original intent is still well-known.

Bullying Christians has long been a favorite past time for those on the left. It happens all too often and if you say anything they just respond with "It's not a thing, it never happens." Oh but it does happen, all the time. It comes as a shock to them that apparently millions of Americans believe in traditional Christian values. All those bigoted homophobic people (satire). Now Christians believe that homosexuality is a sin and many on the left believe it is not, both different beliefs. However someone having a different belief does not fly with the left. See, the left claims to have the moral high ground (though most of the time they are relatively immoral) and thus bully those with different beliefs.

This ridiculous tactic is used all the time by the media and Hollywood, and it is not very effective. You want to know why Trump won? Insulting his supporters or those who reluctantly voted for him is a huge reason. Articles like the one in Buzzfeed or the one from Cosmo could easily be described as "Reason #83 as to why Trump won". The left just does not get it though, they go on the extreme thinking it will be effective and it has backfired on them instead.

I am not surprised that an article like this came from Buzzfeed. The "journalism" that they have is really just nonsense. They are on the same level of ignorance as other sites like Huffington Post, NowThis, Seriously.tv, ThinkProgress, Salon, Occupy Democrats, Vox, and The Young Turks. There are plenty more, trust me. These sites have a fairly large influence on millennials, just scroll through most of the articles here on Odyssey and it becomes obvious where these "writers" get their news.

The piece on Chip and Joanna Gaines is absurd. Just like how it is absurd for those bakers to lose their business. The definition of a bigot simply put is one who is intolerant towards those holding a different opinion or belief. Chip and Joanna, those bakers, or any other person who believes in traditional Christian values are not bigots. Can you guess who are the true bigots?

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
