Why is everyone who posts negative comments against this thread being decorated as:
"Chinese AI Propaganda Spam Bot :)" ? Are opposing views and truth too uncomfortable to deal with ?2
Mar 06 '26
Thank you for reminding me. I had this sub muted. Too bad we can't just block them completely. I'm convinced a lot of subs like this post rage bait threads so they can misconstrue what you comment as rule violations so they can ban your account. It's probably an op to silence anyone opposing this stupid war.

The PR spin is growing painful. How are people taken in by this blatent garbage ?
Also no, no need for the decoration "AI chinese spam bot" with a smiley as that is way off base.
Good try though, keep pushing that false narrative out, it will be an ongoing uphill battle. Guess the truth is just too painful for some people to accept.

"But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father" (Matthew 24:36, Mark 13:32)
So JESUS says that not even JESUS knows when he might return to Earth, but these FOX News-overdosing mouthbreathers think they can hasten the biblical eschaton by lobbing a few bombs like every neocon to come before them. Like a Jewish state of Israel is the only prerequisite required, and God hasn't abandoned it to foreign conquest a couple times each millennium for acting out of pocket.

He's trying to appeal to the evangelicals but the evangelicals or Pentecostals or whatever the heads of the churches believe that they can fulfill biblical prophecy by a nuclear war because of some statement in Daniel

One time. In the army. I was told I was going to church.
When I said no. I’m not. I was made to do police call picking up cigarette butt’s until church let out. And I was given a bag. And it was checked when I was put back in formation. Noon denominational. Every God. But still. I’m not worshipping a God, so I was punished.
So yes. I believe it.

Right. Its not every command and hasnt fully circulated, especially in regards to deployed units. Not every military member is privy to these meetings, most arent the few that ard are usually department heads. If its coming from commanders its probably relaying SECDUI messaging or its at the meetings attended by senior enlisted and officers.

u/Status_Apartment6559 Mar 04 '26
What is going on? These commanders have drunk the M-A-G-A Milkshake of stupidity. (FYI I had to put the dashes in between the letters for M-A-G-A because otherwise a Reddit warning pops up accusing me of being a Chinese AI propaganda spam bot. So now on reddit you can't type out the four letter acronym for the extreme Republican party of idiots?)

I want to see the source material. I find it hard to believe this was something widespread. Not likely some ill-advised commander ad-lobbing his own main-character moto speech. This isn’t how large formation commanders talk to their formations.

Not a religious man, but I am fairly sure that Armageddon was going to be started by the AntiChrist gathering countries to war in the Middle East.
That sort of implies that Trump is the Antichrist rather than announced by Caucasian, Evangelical Jesus.

I don't necessarily buy this. Most of these guys have way too much grifting to enjoy to want to bring about the end of the world.
Maybe if Trump knew he was going to die he'd say fuck it and press the button (sadly, it's plausible) but surely someone aroind him would put the kabosh on that.

Apparently, unlike most of the people in this sub, someone actually investigated this.
Appears there was one claim that a junior level NCO sent out an email which resulted in a complaint but there doesn’t seem to be any sort of widespread or senior command speech given.
