  • why is it relevant? Hitler supported animal rights, yet I'm not out here calling vegan activists nazis (even the radical ones)

    Why in western democratic countries Zionism is not banned like Nazism?

    Jump

  • Because the zionists didn't do the holocaust.

  • Exactly.

    Every morning, in schools across the world, children assemble in uniforms in an orderly fashion. Are you going to call them the SA as well?

    Because that's literally the only thing here that they have in comparison with the SA- Assembling in large groups in uniforms.

  • They were out in Soho which is famous for being an LGBT hub harassing people for "sexual deviancy" telling people they were going to hell and needed to be "saved"

    That doesn't sound like violent intimidation tactics. It might cause offence, yes, but a mixed group of unarmed men and women of different ages from various races chanting "Jesus Saves" in a street is hardly terrorism- it sounds more like a peaceful protest if anything (albeit, extremely unorthodox and counter productive. But again, this is within the character of charismatic movements). That doesn't change even if you think they're nutjobs/disagree with them. In fact, it's quite a refreshing change from that march in London a number of weeks ago. Street preachers aren't anything new in the UK. People probably wouldn't have even noticed if Turning Point hadn't used a video of them for content, and the Canary just wanted something to fearmonger over.

    Soho is also famous for being a nightclub hub in general. I don't know the area though so I cannot tell if they're particularly targeting a gay bar or not.

    However, seeing people call for violence or calling people terrorist over speculation is deeply disturbing.

  • The SA was a paramilitary that had a party - the Nazi Party.

    What party does the King's Army - notably not a paramilitary - answer to?

  • That claim is what I'm asking for sources on. What source do you have that says they are being supported by TPUSA? King's Army's website says they are non political.

  • It looks like that but they seem to be basically just modern Salvation Army copycats, especially from looking at their website

    I think we're better focusing on reform UK and the racist marches than a bunch of hyperactive holiness Christians

  • oh woah, another day, another strawman. Why am I not surprised.

    If you knew theology and terminology, you'd know that these are definitely not literal calls to violence. It's like calling the hymn "Jerusalem the Golden" zionist.

    This comes across as a holiness group. The same source of the Salvation Army. They even say on their website they have no interest in politics.

    It seems like it's more inspired by the Salvation Army than blackshirts.

    Instead of wasting your time on some hyperactive holiness Christians, why not focus your energy on actual dangerous groups like Reform UK????

  • Can we ban turning point UK and all other American social media platforms for that matter.

    Although what they did in soho does seem pretty based, but yanks out

    Just looked into king's army, they're not blackshirts at all. Still wary about their affiliations with TPUSA, though

    Seems like this article is biased and doesn't even know what it's talking about. Isn't this basically a new take on the Salvation Army? Not my cup of tea, really, but this article is quite conspiratorial

    Digging deeper, "the canary" is just taking stuff out of context.

    King’s Army soldiers believe we are at war with sin and the devil. We see life like a battlefield that is split down the middle, with two opposing armies on each side.

    On one half of the battlefield (life/light) (Col 1:12) are The King’s soldiers (Christians). (2 Tim 2:3)

    On the other half of the battlefield (death/darkness) (Col 1:13), are Satans soldiers (Demons)

    Behind enemy lines, trapped in trenches, deep in darkness, and sinking in swamps of sin, are the casualties of war. They are the dead (spiritually), or dying lost souls. (1 Pet 2:9)

    These are children of The King (2 Cor 6:18) who were deceived, and drawn away by their own selfish desires (James1:14).

    They are devoid of escape from the snares of the devil, having being captured by him to do his will. (2 Tim 2:26)

    Hidden here are legions of sons and daughters blinded to the truth. (2 Cor 4:4)

    Their hearts have been poisoned by a terminal virus called sin, for which there is no earthly cure. (Jer 17:9)

    There is however, a heavenly antidote. This antidote is hidden in the form of a bullet, a salvation bullet, containing one drop of God’s Holy blood.

    When fired from the weapon of the Gospel (2 Cor 6:7), the bullet finds its target (black heart) and there the salvation serum is released. It swims into the blood stream, reversing the terminal death process and bringing life everlasting. (1 Pet 2:9).

    We believe the mission given from the King to all of his soldiers, is to take back that which was stolen! (Matt 28:19) (Col 1:13)

    There is NOTHING here promoting actual violence. Still a bit weird, but the canary is also promoting the fearmongering conspiracy theories which also caused someone to murder Charlie Kirk in the first place
