It's the same fanbase
Do you think Elon bros love Jesus? It doesn't strike me that way personally.
Where's the picture of Muhammed?
I agree, Muhammed's fan base will kill you if you dare depict him, just look at what happened with Charlie Hebdo.
They'd have to find me first, eh?
Iconoclasts absolutely fuming right now.
kid rock has fans? TIL
I used to be a fan of kid Rock....
It was the early 2000's.
I'm still down with a lot of music from that time, I'll still rock Smash mouth, I sympathize with what happened to their lead singer, but kid Rock is entirely self inflicted and instead of the world moving on from him (like smash mouth) they have him on a pedestal. Why should anyone from my generation be on a political tour because of music they made? It pretty much all sucked. They didn't write any of it themselves... Barely any of them even performed it live. I respect Nickelback "Rockstar" for calling this out.
Always forget people are a big fan of that guy (Jesus)
white american jesus specifically
Supply Side Jesus specifically
I honestly think Jesus would be a little embarrassed to have people hanging on his every word and ascribing meanings to it in the form of a book report on them every Sunday that he probably didn't mean. It's nice to teach us how to treat others and so on, but people loudly assuring others that Jesus loves them; well I have trouble believing Jesus thinks a lot of child predators and rapists myself. And I like what Jesus taught, but I don't think everyone in the world is salvageable.
To be fair, there is a considerable amount of overlap.
Seriously Jesus. You're a cool guy, and I know your thing is you take in the broken, but your other thing was suppose to be love. Like you said one commandment, love, and that shit is severely lacking.
I think the person Jesus actually was loved everyone, but the trouble is conservative people hate gay people and rewrote the texts to say that.
Yeah, Jesus, the historical figure was trying to reshape Judaism. He wanted to reform things and he wanted the focus to be on loving your brother. He got killed for it and he knew it would kill him because he was hanging out with the religious leaders.
Then by a miracle he succeeded because he didnt have any transgressions against the temple and he followed Jewish teachings but was still setup to be crucified in the worst way imaginable.
Then after that he was co-op'd for other purposes but his message is still true. Believing in christ is believing a man named Jesus lived and he was killed by no fault of his own but for the benefit of others.
Being a Christian means you understand Christ's message. Its real easy, love your brother, and you live in a way that reflects that.
Well... A lot of their biblical evidence is less a rewrite and more of a translation issue. Take the whole Sodom and Gehmorra story about tje two angels that everyone is so keen to turn into a condemnation of the gays.
In the OG text the words used to describe the angels were analog to genderless forms of the word "master" and because there were two of them they were always referred to by genderless they/them plural... Which is probably why there were two of them. We are probably supposed to imply the perceived gender of the angels was irrelevant to the tale.
The first Latin and English translations off of Hebrew however used gendered terms for the two angels that coded them as male. Stuff like "Masters" "Lords" that kind of thing in large part because those societies were respectively fairly misogynistic and not primed to interpret either of the two genderless entities as possibility female coded. Then you see the anti same sex interpretation gain popularity in the case of England and France at the time they were going through a population crash via plague which caused amoung other things criminalization of same sex unions as a threat to sexual replacement of a sharply diminished population. So really we can trace this story being interpreted as God's condemnation of the gays rather then just regular old rapists around the same time the word "sodomy" came into the lexicon in the 1300's and the first waves of plague.
That Venn Diagram is a circle
It's all basically the same fan base!!
There's 2 billion Christians in the world and maybe 28 kid rock fans in 2024
Can't say it's a good enough filter, but the pic does at least kinda narrow it down to "Jesus is a white guy" believers
Why catholics hate queers so much if Jesus was into drag?
Some questions history can’t answer.Fun fact. Joseph's coat of many colors is more accurately translated as a coat with long sleeves. That likely references an outfit made from a mother's bridal gown and passed to the daughter.
That is: Joseph was an effiminate youngest child who didn't do men's work and wore women's clothing. He was also persecuted by his brothers for it.
He also ended up being the de facto ruler of Egypt and savior of the Jewish people.
As fun as that fanfiction is, there is no textual evidence for the Joseph's kitonet pasim being made from his mother's bridal gown (especially as first marriage bridalwear was plain white cloth, something Joseph's cloak was famous for not being.) Additionally, Joseph's story is chronologically VERY VERY early in what wasn't yet even Hebrew culture, so would likely bear zero resemblance to post-Canaan Hebrew culture.
The reference to 'long sleeves' has to do with his brother's jealousy at the quality and material excess of the garment. Not the source the garment was made from.
It's kind of bigoted of you to assume that he was gay just because his brothers picked on him.
It's easy, gays don't make babies and the catholic church has run out of countries to convert. The only major growth for their faction is to force more people to have kids.
So the Catholic Church and the GOP are on the same page of that playbook.
You all missed the f*ing joke and spam my inbox with some insane shit
Im pretty sure this is a question history can answer
Sometimes the answer is not really an answer but merely another question
Why catholics hate queers so much
Once you explain to a Catholic that their son/daughter can still deliver grandkids despite being queer, they come around.
Kinky, more kinky than any queer person I know
Fanbases plural?
They're the same picture meme for sure
I like how the Amazing Apartheid Boy is trying to do a Trump scowl - and it manages to look just as characteristically fake as Trump's does.
Dafuq is this all-that-no-cattle,parking-lot-princess-drivin' mouthbreather?
Does Musk still have a fan base? I haven't seen anyone speak favourably of him for a very long time.
I think he still has some Twitter fan bois.
Elon's fall from grace has to be one of the most spectacular I've ever seen, without committing some heinous crime. I used to think he was incredibly smart, if a bit nuts, and had all these left of field ideas that occasionally worked out for him.
Hell, if twitter/X never existed, I would probably still think that.
fan bots more like
Rich doesn’t smart just as religious doesn’t mean moral
Rich does smart!!!
lol it sure does
You missed the Apple guy.
Tim Apple ?
I mean, as a high schooler I enjoyed ba with da bah and whatever else was on that album. I still find some enjoyment in those songs, but I think it's mostly nostalgia.
Not sure what my point is. Shame he's a conservative piece of shit. As an adult I'm not exactly surprised.
Need to squeeze Rogan in there too.
Nah. If we include every derivative asshole with the same fanbase then it will be an endless parade of chucklefucks.
Don't agree. I'm not Christian, but I would replace Jesus with Steve Jobs. Or just the apple logo.
Jobs is a bit too dated a reference. I'd probably replace what's his face on the top left with someone more relevant, though (or Apple as you suggest, they are indeed annoying).
The first three go into the same bag. So the fourth should also fit. Maybe an American flag? Or better yet, an AR15!
Kinda felt the same way, but I found a middle ground solution

From the movie Dogma, Buddy Christ
The dirty secret is that it's the same set of people.
i rarely ever see the kid rock fanbase
I rarely ever see the kid rock fan
base
the jesus fandom has a sub-section of hypocrites in America that keeps changing his canon
We have an extremely small sub-sub-section of Christians in Germany who bust a nut over their persecution fetish so hard, they move into the US.
Thanks for taking those USA. You’re the real MVP 🇺🇸
It’s not just America
Spoiler alert: they're all the same fanbase
Doesnt this guy who married and raped a 9 year old have a rabid fan base who foams at the mouth at a simple cartoon depiction of their holy idol? I mean, fuck everyone in OP's post, but like, cmon, you only had room for 4?? Throw in a kpop group as well. There's an overwhelming abundance of insufferable zealots outside of dipshit american conservatives. Lets try to be inclusive here.
That Jesus is a little swarthy, you couldn't find a pinker one?
I've found people saying they like Pinker, and not very often at that. But I've never found anyone that annoying or that fanatic about him.
(Honestly I've also never found any kid rock fans either, go figure)
Adolf Hitler has a really annoying fan base too, this one time they got do upset over Verdun and made it everyone's problem. Typical hooligans 😤
Coincidentaly also the people who have the most annoying banfaces.
What do they have in common? They're all fake...
Jesus disapproves of his fans, making him the realest.
As society progresses, people that hate femboys are going to notice their Almighty has been the paragon all along.
I usually find they aren't fans of Jesus but following a crazy institution mangling the words of him.
Vince McMahon still has fans.
@BonesOfTheMoon who is the one on the top left? 🤔
Robbie from Joe Dirt.
More like Old Man Country these days.
White Jesus' labia beard is offputting.
A painting of a random pope's son? He has a fan base?
It's a different set of fans, but I'd toss KPop fans in there too. Those people are insufferable.
Can... can someone combine their faces into one?
There are actually five people in the picture.
If you know, you know.
Isn’t this just a circle?
Surely you could do this with different fanbases
I bet fans of these people are getting quite annoyed by people making these memes lol
Surely must go both ways.
It's funny, but there's never a situation where these four should be in the same picture. You're implying that following these guys is following Jesus, or at least that's how it'll be portrayed when it's convenient.
where is the linux penguin
This is the Fediverse.
i.e., it is always implied (btw) :-P
