And people dont understand why I say the orange clown is an Antichrist and may be the Antichrist.

The doomed by a perfect circle is very disturbing accurate.

Came here to share the same article.

It's truly uncanny

I reckon it has a lot to do with personality traits of evil people

[-] Schmoo@slrpnk.net 8 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, while there are a few odd specifics that line up, most of the predictions are just describing the personality traits of a tyrant.

If someone asked me what Trump sounded like I would never think about a lion. His voice is nasally and weak. That part reminded me a lot more of Hitler yelling into a microphone

That's also how I interpret the traits.

It's common warning signs but using colorful language.

Yeah I'm not a Christian, and I know many Christians hate the "reasonable hope for salvation of righteous nonbelievers" thing, but I'll say this, I've got a strong suspicion that if I'm wrong about the veracity of Christianity then Jesus will still prefer my behavior to the maga christians'

Ehh, isn't the antichrist supposed to be a nearly impossibly attractive person, in charisma and looks? A lot of people either hate him or are entirely indifferent and the reasons don't seem to be religiously motivated.

I just settle with him being a douchebag.

Don’t forgot about how all his weird followers depict him in their fan art though…. They seem to at least perceive him as exactly that.

This is still what baffles me. We aren't losing our country to a charismatic, two faced mastermind. We're losing our country to a fucking obvious loser. He's literally so bad it's hard to parody him since even the parodies are tame in comparison to what he actually does. It's ridiculous

Most people are not sharp enough to see that.

We are doomed by the cuts to education they made 40 years ago

Premillennial dispensationalism/rapture theology is a group creative writing exercise with little relevance to the text. The prophecies in Daniel refer to the Greek king Antiochus, which is clear when one reads chapters and not verses (unfortunately uncommon in your typical Protestant church…) Revelation is referring to emperor Nero.

Really, it’s more that folks like Hal Lindsey popularized the concept by traumatizing children in church basements that’s given it the culture cachet.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

As others have said, that part's more modern. But also, look at what's going on, a lot of people hate him, but he has some sort of charisma to draw so many people to lockstep with him.

And one of the big things in revalations about the antichrist is that a lot of Christians will follow him because their faith is tainted and corrupted
