Mormon leaders, military veterans and elected officials reacted with anger to a new Department of Defense policy that does not consider The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to be a Christian religion as part of a wider effort to cut down the U.S. military’s list of recognized faiths.

They’re also on Nebula (paid though)

Not sure, but that’s the only place I’ve seen those videos.
Someone else noted that they’re on Nebula.

First they came for…
my funky underwear?
