Did something change with the babylon bee? Sudden surge of actually decent content all of a sudden

Right wingers are starting to act non/anti-christian more prominently from power, it seems. So Babylon bee has material from the right to make fun of. Or maybe not, it kind of always existed, now thinking.

Idk, I always felt that there was a conservative slant to the bee. It's never there 100% of the time, but it's kinda like if the Onion was written by a bunch of bootlickers.

This is exactly what it is. Seth Dillon was also the guy who recruited the Libs of TikTok lady, if memory serves.
