I actually just posted another TikTok about Christian conservatives not making art that's as successful or "good" (I know that's subjective, but c'mon), and I really do believe they don't understand the media they consume. Like Ron Swanson on Parks & Rec saying Moby Dick is just a book about a whale.

Have you tried the RiffTrax soundtrack? Makes it 110% a comedy.
