I can’t get over how revelations says the followers of the antichrist will wear a blasphemous name on their heads and the MAGA/Trump people don’t connect the dots to their Trump hats.

It’s like they’re playing a connect the dots but don’t know the numbers show the order to connect them. They just draw random lines until pareidolia kicks in.

Literal death cult - I think some of the more religious ones genuinely believe he is heralding the rapture, which is good? I guess? Back to daddy?

[–] Asafum@lemmy.world 19 points 3 months ago (2 children)

It's all so fucking stupid.

Like do these people seriously not think that their God would be pissed at them for forcing the conditions to occur just so they can pull this "Jesus hates this one neat trick to force the rapture" b.s and get into heaven earlier than should have happened?

We all know the famous quote from the Bible: And God said unto thee: murder and bomb people, once you cause enough bloody chaos we'll open the gates! Extra virgins for you the browner the victim of your onslaught!

...

I agree with the sentiment but god does command some serious carnage:

Ezekiel 9:5-7 (ESV): "Pass through the city after him and strike. Your eye shall not spare, and you shall show no pity. Kill old men outright, young men and maidens, little children and women."

Psalm 137:9 (NIV): "Happy is the one who seizes your infants and dashes them against the rocks."

1 Samuel 15:3 (NIV): "Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys."

[–] eestileib@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 3 months ago

The one about the Amalekites is being cited today by the Israeli government to justify killing everybody in Gaza and Southern Lebanon (and soon the West Bank).

The US and Israel are insane religious states just like Iran.

...and, once again, the surest way to anti-theism is to actually read their texts.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 4 points 3 months ago

Don't forget the Flood story where he killed nearly entire human race, and numerous other tales of death and destruction (Sodom & Gommorrah, Jericho, etc.).

The God described in the Bible is a monster.

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Remember that time that God told Moses to strike the rock so that the people could drink water. Later, Moses struck the rock again without instruction from God, and God was all like, "oh, that's cool. I'm a super-chill and reasonable being; you don't gotta ask me for permission to end your own suffering."

Oh wait, I'm misremembering what God said. I believe it was actually something along the lines of, "I'll fucking kill you, Moses. I'm gonna make you slave and toil to bring these people, who I've expressed nothing but hated for, to the land that you've dreamt of seeing, and then I'm gonna fucking kill you right before you get to see it. You know what, motherfucker? Write that shit down. You're gonna write a fucking book about how powerful I am compared to you little shits, and you're gonna write about your little fuck-up, and how I'll fucking kill you. I decide when the suffering ends!"

So, yeah. Let's assume that so these pious assholes and their moody invisible friend are right/real. What part of their book has ever indicated that God wants them accelerating his plans?

[–] notwhoyouthink@lemmy.zip 9 points 3 months ago

Yeah mate this only works under the assumption that not only do his followers read the Bible they also understand it.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Weren’t they supposed to buy and sell things with a mark on their hand? Pretty much what Trump is doing.

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 months ago

Yes, a symbol on their head and a mark on their right hand. And if you don’t have it you can’t buy anything and they kill you in one of the later chapters.

I lurk on a Qanon forum sometimes, and they were having a hard time dealing with the “demon” with three horns in the original. They came to the conclusion that the image was Satanic, and Trump was cleverly using it to flush out fake supporters or something.

[–] nightofmichelinstars@sopuli.xyz 5 points 3 months ago

Sometimes being a deluded dumbass takes real commitment. You gotta learn those mental backflips and do them on command, every time.

[–] shawn1122@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago

Way too generous to Kash Patel.

[–] wolfrasin@lemmy.today 19 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Tfw it's clearly AI but you're not mad this time

[–] Gloomy@mander.xyz 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'd even go so far as to say it's as close to art as AI can possibly get.

[–] wolfrasin@lemmy.today 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

There is another. Back a while ago someone set a video montage of blatant AI nonsense to "This Is America" by Childish Gambino and it's fabulous ;)

[–] Zoot@reddthat.com 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Id love to watch this if you have a name or link!

[–] wolfrasin@lemmy.today 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Since you asked! Cw: from 2025, all AI, graphic gay sex, least censored version available, sorry about the click thru adds

This is Trumpmerica https://www.bitchute.com/video/oWpybbBRDCul/

[–] Zoot@reddthat.com 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That is not at all what I expected

[–] wolfrasin@lemmy.today 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I've expanded the cw. Hope you're okay!

[–] Zoot@reddthat.com 2 points 3 months ago

Haha no it's okay! I appreciate you finding it, thank you :)

[–] VeryVito@lemmy.ml 12 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Fun fact: The original AI (and Trump himself) did such a piss-poor job of imagining the U.S. flag that he got the stripes wrong (the outermost stripes should be red, not white).

[–] Tyrq@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 months ago

The one thing it should be good at, pattern recognition, is bad, ironically people don't understand that ai as it stands also doesn't truly understand anything

[–] jrwperformance@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

My favorite part is the F-22 Seagull.

[–] Birch@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

I'm more than a bird

I'm more than a plane

I'm a bird-plane

Motherfuckin bird-plane

[–] AzuranAurora@piefed.ca 1 points 3 months ago

Doesn't that sound familiar?

Doesn't that hit too close to home?

Doesn't that make you shiver, the way that things have gone?

And doesn't that seem peculiar, 'cause everyone wants a little more

It's something I do remember to never go this far

That's all it takes to be a star

Heavily insulting to nurses, they work hard

[–] Vupware@lemmy.zip 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

My dad’s dumbass MAGA girlfriend is a nurse.

When that thing passed that declared nursing to no longer be a “professional” occupation, she was sad. She said “I’m not a professional anymore”. She did not say “this makes no sense, my specialized knowledge absolutely indicates that my career path is that of a professional”.

It was a soul-crushing example of the destructive thought patterns that the alt-right preys on. A blind respect for authority, even when the decisions made are harmful and illogical.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 months ago

They passed a thing? Dictating what was considered a “professional” occupation? For what purpose? I wonder if I’m still a “professional.”

[–] fisch@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

This is a work of art. Epstein, Bibi, that ghoulish lady... I love it.

[–] gh0stb4tz@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Who is the person above Maxwell? I expected to see Putin in this picture, but it doesn’t really look like him.

[–] nightofmichelinstars@sopuli.xyz 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Putin would be god in this allegory. For a few more layers, we could lean Catholic and make Orban the Holy Ghost.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 months ago

Body of Christ is the Big Mac.

Blood of Christ is hydroxychloroquine.

I'm still curious about that dolphin fighter jet hybrid in the background.
