“The first thing for me was he didn’t release the Epstein files. They’re even acting like they didn’t exist,” he said, before moving on to his other grievances. “And, of course, they’re sending Israel and Ukraine all of our tax dollars just like the numb-nuts before him did. Putting America last, and now he’s blaming the beef farmers for the price of beef.”

Mitchell added, “Hey, I’m not biased, man. He talked a good game; he tricked me. I was fooled. I admit it.”

"Yeah, I do think that Donald Trump is that beast of Revelation 13:3."

there's a lot of writing about how the Christians were coding their language at this time because writing about the god king was sure to be death, especially if you're trying to warn others

Anyways the code for number of the beast, 666 or 616 was basically Nero. He killed a lot of Christians. Revolations is code for the prediction of the fall of Rome

be real and think of that bronze age world and consider how much Rome controlled the world of people who could read and write. It was something very special to write a long message. It would be something that stands out like a big screen tv does to us. they had to hid meaningful things inside fantastic stories so when their caught, they have a way out

Definitely makes sense, I don't know enough of this kind of history.

I kinda wrote history as a subject off because all my schools focused on wars and not much else. So "history" felt like a bunch of wars and almost all of them were some variation of people in power wanting to show off their micro PPs with a few important revolutionary wars sprinkled in where the common people got sick of the people in power.

So I'm lacking in my "important details of history" knowledge that really help frame conditions as they are now. Appreciate the info, gonna go look up more.
