Christianity was a religion that started out small, with members hunted down and killed. And then it grew, and once it gained power it did a lot of hunting and killing of its own.
Very often, persecuted underdogs end up being just as awful as the persecutors.

It's almost as if the whole point of culture war is to climb to the position where you can use death as a propagation tool.

Gotta love how they stole religious days from other groups and made them Christian days

Christianity is also one of the original (or at least an archaic one with long term reach, as there've been many others that faded away) social justice movements. So it's an excellent baseline for just how nasty those advocating for social justice can way too easily get.

HURRAH for revolution and more cannon-shot!
A beggar upon horseback lashes a beggar on foot.
Hurrah for revolution and cannon come again!
The beggars have changed places, but the lash goes on.
