Do remember that it's only some men that will get that power, not all men. WASP is just the start of the verification process for you. The lie that men like you will get this power is what gets regular joes to buy in without realizing they'll never see those promises materialize.
I've worked enough retail to know that there are plenty of people out there who will gladly jump at the opportunity to be a petty tyrant themselves.
Can confirm, was also raised as a woman in a fundamentalist church. We didn't stick just to the KJV, but then the pastor would turn around and preach out of LaHay's Left Behind series too, soooooo.
When I was 17, I went to a youth christian convention, and during the main speaker, they had the thousands of teens and 20somes in the audience participate in a mass marriage to god. They said that god would provide a good husband for me.
Then I got raped and made the mistake of turning to the bible for comfort. The bible says that women who get raped in the city should be put to death, and women who get raped outside the city need to marry their rapist. Now, the text I read made it sound like it wasn't really the location, but whether or not she screamed, and I had screamed, so I reasoned that I needed to marry the man instead of killing myself.

Getting people to switch is honestly a little complicated. People haven't switched to Mastodon because the accounts they follow aren't on Mastodon, but the accounts aren't on Mastodon because the people who follow them aren't there.
If you want to help, it might be beneficial to reach out to the accounts you follow and tell them you'd like to see them on Mastodon too.
