They don't care.
Things like this have never stopped religious #fascists.
They are hypocrites & use their hypocrisy as a display of power to show the rest of us that the rules don't apply to them.
I mostly agree, which is why Falwell Jr is such an unusual example, because his ass got ejected pretty quick. That organization actually got rocked by revelations for once.
No real consequences though. They are all literally still rich & powerful & continue to use their fortune to tug on the levers of power behind the scenes.
Well yeah, they already had money and were offered more to gtfo. But they’re not in charge of that university anymore, and its reps still struggle with that as part of its history now.
How's Liberty College doing?
Depends on who you ask about it. Some students give the impression it’s all going great, others don’t want to be associated with it, but didn’t have other options lined up, or it’s too much hassle to transfer out at this stage, etc. Still others did drop them and went somewhere else. All my news from there is secondhand from people I know in the area at the point, and we’re all outsiders so it’s difficult to know what’s actually going on (which isn’t much different than before.)
