Guess you've never been kettled and charged by horses for taking part in a (up until that point) peaceful protest against the ideology of the ruling government? I have. It's life threatening, and has proven fatal on more than one occasion. And undoubtedly terrifying. This is state oppression of the population by any definition I understand.
Or been detained indefinitely without charge and sleep deprived, partially drowned etc... No I haven't but its not hard to imagine how that could also be seen as oppressive and terrorising and is now admitted by the US and complicity admitted by the UK.

Not the same dude. One is a browser of arguments. I.e. rational discourse. The other may be seen as God bashing, but it purely uses the Bible's words to do so. That's like saying Principia Mathematica Abridged Notes is Physics bashing.
Niether, irrationally assumes a significant proportion of the population are in need of being 'cured' of their genetic condition (which is, of course, as best science can tell, currently, practically impossible - whether it's desirable or not).
"cure" is a medical term. Medicine is a scientific and beautifully empirical endeavor. Religion is not. Clouding the two is a kin to using pseudo science to sell anti aging cream, but with MUCH more significant ramifications for the victims of the deception. Rather than keeping a few wrinkles and loosing a few bucks, you get psychologically traumatized. Potentially for life, often by your own family.
I believe such deception should be legally prevented. I still think the trades description act should allow for prosecution of this kind of deception.

IMHO, this is more of a PR stunt against American culture
What a load of self absorbed crap.
The qualification factors are CO2 emissions per mile. As they should be. Not car shape. You think US invented the SUV? No just the dumb and incongruent name (I presume).
Don't get me wrong the shape and size are both important factors in European annoyance at there rise in popularity in our narrow overcrowded streets.
They also get refered to as Chelsea Tractors. I've lived in Chelsea. You're right to ask who would want to ride a huge SUV there. Sadly the answer is Every dumb selfish twat. If its bigger my children will be safer (and the neighbours' less so, but I don't care), my ego will be better supported, my status further bolstered.... You have a concentration of rich, self-centered people in city centers. Which is why Chelsea has the highest concentration of 4x4 owners per capita in the UK, despight one of the lowest snow and flooding rating. And next to no mud.
This is not an attack on American culture, but on selfish individuals. The fact that you identify with these individuals in the way you do, is potentially illustrative of your own understanding or perception of your countries culture.
