Bandcamp's ridiculous anti-Christian, front page article

I rarely pay any attention to the front page, but when I saw a Bible verse mentioned, I knew I had to take a look.

The article equates evangelism with colonialism, among many other completely ridiculous statements.

We should all only buy from this site on Bandcamp Fridays, where all money goes to the artist and none to the people who run this site and their woke, anti-God agenda.

As usual, I find John Frame to have some wisdom here:
“Scripture does not require believers to support only industries and institutions that are morally and religiously pure. Jesus taught his disciples to pay taxes to Caesar, taxes which supported the emperor cult, among other things. Paul taught the Corinthians to buy food in the market place without asking whether or not it had been offered to idols. Scripture is realistic enough to know that if we had to inquire about the religion or morals of every merchant before doing business with him, we could not buy at all.
I do not think it is wrong for Christians to boycott industries which they believe are doing social and/or religious harm in the world. They are certainly free to withhold their economic support from those industries. On the other hand, I do not believe that Scripture @UN(requires) us to boycott such organizations. We really could not do that in every case without completely isolating ourselves from the world.”

With all the wokeness lately when Miller Lite did their ad, it dawned on me (duh!) that even when big companies are espousing things we like (I thought of "Baseball, Hotdogs, Apple Pie & Chevrolet"), they are still only putting into their ads what they think will sell.

Then where did all this false-reality nonsense come from? Did every company decide to embrace woke ideology at the same time? Or have they been given "incentives"?  

If these companies' woke advertising campaigns aren't being decided of their own volition (suicidal pandering), who is telling them to market to a tiny minority of people in their ads? Since when is that a good marketing strategy? 

No this is all intentional. 
Our society is in the process of being subverted by cultural saboteurs and hijackers who ultimately want a one-world government.
