    MAGA and the Comfort of End-Times Thinking [0]

    > MAGA didn’t invent apocalyptic thinking—it industrialized it. America is described as fallen, occupied, corrupt beyond recovery. Elections are fake. Courts are compromised. Journalists are enemies. Neighbors are suspect. If everything is already illegitimate, then anything done in response becomes justified.

    > Apocalypse becomes permission.

    Rules are over. Party like it's the end of time. Jesus will forgive .... maybe.

    Is the military becoming a doomsday cult?

    Does this have something to do with that weird Peter Thiel anti christ thing? Or is it just a simpler way to set off a war to justify cancelling or changing elections to extend the GOP’s control?

    This sounds uncomfortable. Are we hastening the Antichrist, or not?

      The good news is, the Antichrist isn't real. None of that end times Book of Revelations shit is real.

      The bad news is it doesn't matter if enough powerful people believe in it anyway.

    The military is owned by the MIC. Trump is merely following the orders from the Epstein era buddies. Such beautiful guys, those bankers. </sarcasm>
