I’m flabbergasted. I hoped this group would disband when JFK didn’t reappear, but that was ages ago and it’s become increasingly apparent that these people desperately need to be led. This time by a child.

CPS should investigate her mother. Though I suppose on what grounds? She’s essentially the same as those kids with YT channels, an influencer, so to speak. I’m so bummed out by this.

Bro a cargo cult formed around a failed towel store that was objectively bankrupt. Nothing is off the table.

The motivation behind both movements is the same: Tricking gullible people out of their money. Once the dumb-dumb money runs out, they'll both go tits up like The Colonel.

You need to stop thinking logically. Groups like this are only emboldened and their beliefs strengthened when events don't happen when they are expected to happen. If they were mentally stable they would shrug their shoulders, say welp guess it's not going to happen and go on with their lives, they aren't, so they don't, instead they double down on it and push the date out further or otherwise explain away the event not happening.

It's almost as if reality news is converging with Onion news. Each passing year it just gets worse.

We truly do live in the most bizarre timeline.
