"Every detail of her life was controlled, she says, from her clothes to visiting her parents. “I was not allowed to spend Christmas with my family or attend my grandmother’s funeral. Often, they denied our requests, telling us to ‘offer it up’ as a sacrifice to God. They hid behind God to use us.”
This is where Gilead is going.....
"The women also say they faced extreme control, their letters were censored, and they were banned from reading anything but children’s books or religious texts. When they eventually escaped, the women say they were left without money, clothes or qualifications."
Opus Dei is creepy as fuck and nothing more than a cult by the looks of it....

So, I took the day away from reading the news and what happened? Pete #Hegseth; #OpusDei #WhiteNationalist Drunken Wife Beater is now the #SecretaryOfDefense. I haven't looked at who voted for him, but there better not be any Ds on that list.
As Cassandra I say; This is bad. This is very, very bad.
As someone raised around special forces my whole life, I say; This is way worse than civvies know. I spoke to a [redacted] at [redacted base] today and he said that a lot of the command sector, who have all served well past when they could have retired, are considering retiring asap. #defense #uspol #OhFuckNo
