TWGB: Burning of Babylon

 


The whore of Babylon. You see, I take this personally. The Rod of Iron Ministries is a cult that descends from Reverend Moon, and loves guns, and I guess loves Trump? But where you see "Whore of Babylon" here--see also "Jezebel Spirit" elsewhere--like in the church of Lance Wallnau where weasel-human hybrid JD Vance briefly rallied. Where people spoke from the pulpit to proclaim Kamala Harris was using witchcraft to appear to be a competent leader. 

What if, though, female humans had the same entire mental capacity for leadership? Like Deborah and Judith? They could be intelligent and accomplished. They were better than the men around them. You say "any prophet" and I say Rahab. 

And the walls came tumbling down--very selectively. So much for your "Jericho marches". 

I have spoken of how I think "Fight Fight Fight" is just a desire to see carnage acted out by a deranged mind. But many people following Trump seem to be self-deranging. And are looking at him as a kind of Messiah figure. The casino bankrupt pussy-grabbing guy. Like his redemption redeems something else. 


Let me straighten you all out--he isn't getting redeemed. Not by whatever weird lawfare or attempted assassination attempt you want to pretend for him as his own individual trial and tribulation that forges him stronger and better. Ain't no Pilate project happening here.  He would have to ask of his own volition and this asshat doesn't even understand that he has ever done anything wrong. He isn't touched by grace. He is just a sinner looking forward to your goodwill to go ahead and sin again. He still lies about the elections and why he sent his Proud Boys and Oath Keepers. 

Maybe we need an Esther. Courageous and capable of preserving a nation. 

Maybe we need someone who knows we are better than this?



Maybe we need to listen to this felon differently because he says provocative things but there is a threat there.  He isn't a hero.  He's a threat. And the way he has co-opted religion is a profound example of why church and state need o be separated.

T**** is so toxic he should be glowing in the dark. And his obsequious followers are like the slavering orcs from Lord of the Rings. Completely blinded by rage and hate. This pestilence rises every four years to try and darken our way forward. But their numbers are literally dying off by their own hand in refusing to support science, health care, and help that our government offers.

As a military veteran and having worked in many diverse private company cultures, I can only say that I benefited immensely either reporting to or supervising or working side by side with a wide range of incredibly smart talented people from all walks of life. We’re not going back!

Thank you for your service and your comment--the thing that infuriates me is how anyone can be insulated against a culture of diverse excellence? Like, literally be unaware of an actual meritocratic system--but it happens in the military and in civil service by design. So-called "woke" DEI business cultures benefit from a range of perspectives. It helps prevent tunnel vision and funneling towards dead-end ideas.

They do it by just never looking up and being the example of why their model is a recipe for eventual failure. They are a closed system and entropy sinks in.

Drone-Mania!!

  You know, while the quality of mercy is not strained with respects to highly performative Republican arsehats, the benefit of the doubt ha...
