It is not a good meme in any real sense. I believe it is supposed to make you think “Oh wow, America is going off a cliff — we are closing schools and building nursing homes.” Obviously the picture is much bigger than that, but I think (?) that part is supposed to hit you and you’re supposed to dive into a moral panic, and that’s why it had some small degree of virality over the weekend. I’m not endorsing it as a quality meme or societal indicator, just trying to explain in response to what you said. Hopefully that makes sense.

Heather, their female leader (the male pastor’s wife), did an IG Live probably back in late October/November 2024 — their Council vote to get their facility approved passed in December — where she openly mocked some members of the neighborhood next to the church, including calling people out directly for (a) their age, (b) infertility, (c) what they sell for a living, and (d) in one case, how their husband looks coming home from work (???). Weird, weird place. I believe she deleted that IG Live and it’s lost to history, but it was a doozy. They released a 2-hour, 42-minute-ish video on their YouTube detailing their whole “journey” into Ft. Worth and the facility they’re attempting to build. It’s still there. I don’t feel like linking it. Initially, when they dropped it in early 2025, the title was “CHURCH VS. CITY.” They renamed the video within a day or two. I asked a few people I know at the city and 2-3 told me Mattie and co. were livid the video was titled that, especially since Mattie voted for the facility (it’s called “bending the knee”), so the main concession Mercy made was to change the title of a YT video. We live in interesting times.

Feels like we need a lot more. Bike lanes are rough with potholes (in places where bike lanes exist) too.
