Between this and the "sin of empathy" stuff it's all getting a bit satanic round maga way.

Dave Brat, a Senior VP at Liberty University, said today on a local news interview that the tariffs are following “reciprocity,” which he said is the Golden Rule: “whatever you do to us, we’re gonna do to you.”

then you will love all the nerds who are into "end times" christianity stuff (as a hobby, not a religious belief) all getting increasingly nervous about how well trump fits the anti-christ lists from like "left behind" and stuff

He was literally wounded in the head!

Isn't left behind the one where the anti christ is a cosmopolitan euro-guy and they establish that by having him make a speech at the UN where he names all the countries in the UN?

jadehawk.bsky.social•1 day ago

oh it's worse, the speech lists all countries in the world and in reality that would cause immediate war depending on some choices he'd make or not.

but the book (and its sources) are working off lists of supposed traits the anti-christ will have, that's what i meant.

presidenthellsatan.bsky.social•1 day ago

Oh ok. I never actually read any of those books I just remember reading a blog or something where they described that.

jadehawk.bsky.social•1 day ago

i only second-hand-read them, via fred "slacktivist" clark's blog readalong :)

Don’t blame that on Satan, that’s just plain old fascist assholery.

That's basically a paraphrase of Levay's satanic bible!

We've known for awhile that it's all projection but I had forgotten about the 70's 80's satanic panic and now I'm getting (more) worried

Dave Brat was the guy who ousted Eric Cantor in the House primary. He was a herald of Trumpism a full year before Trump announced his presidential campaign in 2015

katharinethegeek.bsky.social•1 day ago

Huh. He must be reading from a Trump bible instead of any of the translations I've read.

Narrator: but that was not the Golden Rule. Something an actual Christian, or even just a good person, would know...

I keep waiting for someone on that side to realize how overt it's gotten and I'm still waiting

#Empathy in #action is a form of #resistance to #fascism.

I'm not, like, a professional ethicist or anything, but I seem to remember the Golden Rule going differently.

Wait...

Too woke.

Trump is using Fentanyl as a reason to skirt USMCA. It's called The Essential Security Interest Exception - "The trade agreements do not preclude their signatories (i.e., governments) from taking actions considered necessary to protect essential security interests..." A ruse to use tariffs. #cdnpoli

the satanic temple’s first tenet is empathy tho?

hikemix.bsky.social•1 day ago

Dave Brat is a piece of work, he's the guy who unseated Eric Cantor by running further to the right. He was in economics (I think?) at Randolph-Macon, a liberal arts college, and his research is on how Capitalism is morally required by Christianity.

lizdynan.bsky.social•1 day ago

As above, so below, as below, so above. Hellish new Golden Rule. May involve chanting.

erinslick.bsky.social•1 day ago

I thought Satan was supposed to know the scriptures though 😂

philosobobby.bsky.social•1 day ago

This interpretation of the Golden Rule is like selecting that specific kind of incorrect answer to a multiple choice question that has all the right words in it but you would know is obviously wrong if you read with any care at all.

Possibly related to them being in thrall to a symbol of greed, gluttony, lust, empty pride, envy for dictators, hate for anyone other than him, who's never done a day of work in his life—a man whose entire life is a lie. A veritable prince of lies, one might say.

The NAZI's had a plan to slough off Christianity, too many contradictions. They liked the Occult, guessing that's where the Trumpanzees will settle eventually.

neilanderthal.bsky.social•1 day ago

Reciprocity sounds nice ... where can we get some?
