    What frustrates me is this is going to back up my parents end times bs. Wars and diseases and natural disasters. The Bible foretold it!

    And you fucking voted for all of it. Is it really a prophecy if the followers push for it all to happen?

      What else can be said? It’s going to get worse. Things have to get so much worse, until Trump fulfills his promise: “We’re gonna win so much you may even get tired of winning and you’ll say ‘Please, please. It’s too much winning. We can’t take it anymore. Mr. President, it’s too much.’”

      This is what winning looks like to him.

        “We’re getting these babies now–strong, American babies–these babies are at temperatures, big numbers, numbers we haven’t seen for 60 years here. Yesterday I had… a baby came to me, tears in his eyes, he said ‘Sir’–these tough babies call me sir, have you noticed that?–he said ‘Sir, you’re giving us something in this country that we haven’t had in generations.’ People are saying they’ve never seen this before. We brought it back.”

        At this rate, donvict should make another fake branch of the government like “doge” and call it Ministry of Winning.

            Meanwhile, God’s re-living His glory days. After 2020, He’s still having fun bringing back various versions of Plague, and has realised that some of the oldies like measles still slap.

            As of 2022 He’s got War going again too. And this year wouldn’t you know it, despite an early attempt to revamp a classic with cyber warfare and drones, folks have leaned into retro Daseinskampf, Anschluss, and Aktivismus vibes. Kids these days!

            Things are going so well, it looks like he’s gonna move Famine from a limited to a global release in the near future.

      Yep, as of this week at least… For some background, Vitamins A, D, E, and K are the fat-soluble vitamins. This means overdosing on them can take quite a long time to fully recover from. Excessive Vitamin A can result in significant liver, bone, central nervous system, and skin damage, as well as hair loss. But I’ve not once heard RFK say anything about dosage, which is idiotic for someone in his position. Vitamin A’s primary role for humans involves regulating cell/tissue growth and differentiation. Vitamin A’s main prescription usage is for cystic or nodular acne under the brand name Accutane. Accutane’s dosage needs to be very dialed in, so much so that the patients using it must get monthly blood work, if not bimonthly or weekly. Additionally, women must agree to not get pregnant on Accutane, as it leads to severe birth defects and other pregnancy complications. But sure, the dude in charge of the department of health sees no need to say anything about dosage, just that taking Vitamin A is helpful for measles while there’s an exceptional vaccine readily available…

        Listen nerd, that was a lotta words. Nothing that matters takes that many words to say.

        You can tell Vitamin A is good cuz it’s the first one. We need to get back to basics in this country. You ever heard of a kid getting too many A’s?

        Git yer fiddly science outta my child-rearin!

      Apparently vitamin A can help with measles, but that’s, helpful when you get it. It won’t help preventively, which is the most likely way (and likely in large quantities) those people will be taking it.

        Of course it can, that’s how these people operate. There will almost always be a kernal of truth buried under miles of bullshit.

        iirc it’s also only helpful if you’re already deficient in vitamin A, which the majority of Americans aren’t. It’s the same thing with Ivermectin: it looked like it was helpful for covid in aggregate, but only in developing countries where parasites are common. So, treating someone’s parasites with a horse dewormer made the person healthier overall and meant their immune system could commit more resources to fighting covid, but someone without parasites (meaning the majority of Americans) would get absolutely no benefit.
