Christian filth. So common.

Too lazy to find it but somewhere on the fediverse there's a community called priestarrested which is full of stories like this.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !priest_arrested@lemmy.world

Thanks!!

I'm not thanking you out of any kind of enjoyment, that's for sure. But it's good to have the reference point.
