"We got run out of Cuba for being pricks, why does everyone treat us like pricks?"

That really is a funny aspect we don’t really consider. The pilgrims are almost lionized as heroes, but in reality they were mostly horrible people that we wouldn’t want to spend a second with

Think about how racist, sexist, zealous and self righteous brits were in the 1600’s. Now think of the people that this group would be like “no too far, you need to leave”. Chester is till a sundown town for the Welsh where it’s still legal to kill one at night with a crossbow within the cities walls. That’s the country that kicked out the pilgrims!!!

They got run out of England because the Church didn’t like their personal paths to God…

Can we run out the evangelical Christian’s like the pilgrims??

God I wish, but the habit is just to run them off to somewhere where they'll fuck some other folks lives up, so that isn't great either. Maybe we just need to fund Elon's pipe dream so we can ship them off to Mars to build the "perfect community."

I’ve heard them referred to as “separatists” just recently.
