    I’m not a Christian but man this Trump guy keeps matching what revelations said the anti christ would be so well that I might look into the religion if it wasn’t oppressing me and I wasn’t already happy with my gods

      I wouldn’t be surprised if project 2025 had an entire unpublished section discussing strategies to co-opt the imagery of antichrist to use as propaganda to further muddy the waters and aid in confusion and prevent a cohesive resistance.

        It has to be deliberate. Trump and Musk match the beast and the dragon so closely that it’s uncanny. There’s no way it’s a coincidence and given that we know that the author of revelations was ranting about Nero, they have to be playacting trying to trick God into fulfilling their prophecy fanfiction.

          🤣 > trying to trick God into fulfilling their prophecy fanfiction.

          I was thinking more along the lines of galvanizing their current followers like Hillary’s “deplorable” comment did.

          It’s like how evangelical Christians support Israel as a way to trigger the end times. They don’t care that this means a third of Jews will be cast into a lake of fire, they just want to make Jesus come back.

      I don’t believe in God, but rapture appears like a good start. Bunch of religious freak leaving for heaven would mean the median IQ raised a little bit.
