This poetgirl on Instagram says some off the wall shit.

Some of these old bitches have totally lost their mind and just spread misinformation.

This is more than mildly infuriating for me but I wasn’t quite sure where else to post this lol.

    God, fucking Christians. We need a slur for them or something so badly. I’m so sick of them.

      4chan had a term; Christfag.

      If you take out the offence to the gay community, it’s actually a brutal phrase. It conjures up connotations of being literally gay for Jesus (which is really offensive to them).

      Note: I’m not condoning the phrase, it’s obviously not something people should be saying.

        I’m aware of the term Christfag. I was there, Gandalf. 4chan also had an incredibly abrasive board culture as a means of social filtering, so {append}fag was their way of referring to someone who had identified as some way, or else for someone to refer to themselves as that thing, usually because they were trying to tell everyone they had unique perspective on what was being discussed. It got to the point where I saw a person open their post identifying as a “Gayfag.”

        I don’t like using the term for this because its punching down at an actually oppressed minority who would be caught in the crossfire.

          The crucifix is an implement of torture and execution, upon which the titular Christian god was executed to fulfill a blood oath. Executionists, torturers, blood magicians, nailers, death cultists, the forsaken (Psalm 22)…

          Being shephered by a higher authority is also a common theme. Sheep is right there, although some actually use that directly.

          Another common theme is the second arrival of their god, starting the end of the mortal realm and the death of all mortals. Death cultists again, apocalyptics, doomsdayers…

          There’s lots of heinous things in their book, but most reject them or are unaware. You could call out lots of things there.

      Comedian James Acaster offers “crizzos” in one special. That’s got some zip to it.

      I refer to them as Fundies (i.e., Fundamentalists). That seems to cover all the obnoxious christians.
