Stumbled across a video of a guy analyzing a KFC commercial frame by frame and how it’s satanic and going against the Bible because…. the feature demons? They curse god? No, it’s because the man is doing laundry instead of the woman. You’ll also see similar stuff with Illuminati videos

Good eye! This commercial is planting subliminal message for role reversal. The kid with long hair is hard to tell if boy or girl. In the scriptures we are supposed to be know by the length of our hair.
The wife should've asked, "Honey, would you like a glass of water?" Mom & child join Dad for dinner 🍽️ getting themselves something from the kitchen. Mom serving Dad , child, & herself some water . After 🍽️ dinner, Mom & child could clean 🫧 up kitchen & do 🧺 laundry. Keeping a harmonious home 🏡 would be better. Lady should've taken into account that Dad is probably chilling out because it's his day-off.
My husband works, but I go to school full-time. I structure my life so that I can still care for the kids. The truth is, I’m tired, but my husband doesn’t make as much because he started his career late as we’re recovered alcoholic/addicts. My point is, at some point, I’ll probably earn more than him, but I still won’t expect my husband to fold, do dishes, clean the toilets or bathe the kids. I wasn’t raised traditionally as I was raised by my grandmother who hates men, yet, I still understand how important it is to show my husband respect by reserving his energy for tasks that I can’t do, like uprooting trees or hanging Christmas lights. My husband will load the washer and transfer to dryer (which is outside) and he’ll fold his own clothes, if he does his own load, but I never make him fold my clothes or the kids, nor do I have him clean the toilets or mop the floor. And it’s not that I’m a great wife, but I won’t degrade my husband like that. Honestly, it would embarrass me to see him do those things, just as I would assume it would embarrass him to see me clean the gutters.
Ladies… is it gay for my husband to take care of our children?
I just call them every Christian who I grew up around in my hometown. I'm assuming it's the same in other small towns throughout America. Everyone I grew up around would talk about hearing voices, seeing angels, witnessing miracles, all of that. It was simply understood that mass media is demonic trickery to make you brainwashed, with the only acceptable children's entertainment being Veggie Tales or weird independently made documentaries about why NASA is Satanic. This guy saying the KFC Pot Pie treat commercial is sinister demons tricking you is about par for the course. In fact he seems like one of the more normal kind of evangelical, because he's actually putting this into understandable sentences and was able to upload it onto YouTube. My evangelical aunt would instead point at scream and start babbling in tongues.
I don't know how to express to y'all how common this mindset is if you're from the south. It's everywhere, especially from older people. You have no idea how much I have to restrain myself from becoming a fedora reddit atheist sometimes. There was a time I got sent to Bible camp and we had to do an improvised exorcism on a kid clearly having either a seizure or mental health crisis, and I'm always gonna remember that. I got reprimanded at school multiple times for alleged witchcraft. I grew up less than a mile away from a church with snake handling and drinking poison. Several of my teachers in school would teach me math during the week and seem otherwise normal, then on Sundays they'd go to church where they'd flop on the floor and scream about meeting Solomon or defeating demons with spiritual powers. Don't get me started on how difficult it is to be queer in places like my hometown.
Some of my cousins got dunked in holy water instead of getting vaccinated as kids. This entire thing is rampant, and it exists in such a bubble it's a shock when anyone outside sees what these evangelical protestants are up to. It's so widespread and ingrained into rural (and increasingly suburban) America that I wouldn't know how to fix it outside of coordinated re-education campaigns.
My family was Methodist but the small southern town i grew up in was run by these evangelical freaks, and I got into so many brawls as a kid because my friends or other kids would talk about their Sunday service or the snake they talked to and I would just go “that’s weird” or “do you really think that works.” It would lead to dumb childish bantering until one of them would take a swing because I would say something like “you can’t physically battle demons, that’s not how the rules work!” Literal children waging evangelical holy war; was so dumb
Regardless, I can’t even imagine a scenario that involves being queer in my hometown that does not end in violence, because these freaks are openly violent to non-evangelical Christian alone.
Yeah, that tracks with my experiences too. I remember my more religious cousins getting into fights with me over very small stuff, like they'd talk about talking to Jesus in their dreams, or how I wasn't allowed to bring X-men comics over to their place because they were evil. Their household always seemed so chaotic, with stuff getting banned or unbanned depending on the whims of their mother.
My middle school had an honest to goodness evangelical gang of kids who'd abuse anyone they thought wasn't holy enough. It was typical little kid gang stuff, stealing money, organizing fights, selling drugs, etc. but it was weirdly all in the language of holy god this or that. After 9/11 happened they named themselves the "Muslim Hunters" if they weren't bad enough.
In any case, out of my four cousins from that evangelical household, on became a small business dipshit who owns a burger place and fires employees if he hears them speak Spanish. One became a youth pastor in the same abusive church he came from. And one became some kind of administrative level organizer in the local KKK branch. I feel sick when I think about how towns like ours just spit out more and more of these people.

Wild, same. My high school had a Christian club and the leaders of it would out gay kids to the teachers, and those teachers would then make homophobic remarks or jokes at the students in class, or grade them poorly or harsher than normal.

Speak for yourself, bucko
Interesting. I know mega churches are huge, but I always wondered how they compared to these more apocalyptic miracle healing shit. Also, I don’t believe a single rich man believes in faith healing. So in addition to reeducation, you also need to improve their lives or else they’ll succumb to the next deranged snake oil

Yeah

I'd compare mega churches to something like the Beatles. The churches are like the preacher's fanclub. They're people who got enamored with one particular charismatic person or preaching style and have their dopamine tied to hearing sermons delivered in a certain way. They're probably more dangerous too, because mega churches are full of people who know how to act normal in their daily lives. They're full of car dealership owners and local business owners. They're like churches for capitalism, or big self-help groups. They actually seem to read books too, or at least the books the church tells them to read.
Evangelical folk in my hometown are less structured and more confused. Their religion is mostly just white supremacy with a gloss of superstition on it. They're people who don't know how to behave normally in polite society. They'll point and scream if they see a gay person, they'll openly use the n-word in conversation, they'll have occasional moments of religious ecstasy where they'll fall on the floor at the local grocery store and start shouting about visions. I had one classmate in school who'd do that fairly regularly. We'd be sitting in class and she'd start screaming about the second coming, she'd run outside with her arms outstretched claiming she could see Jesus descending from the sky.
I don't wanna be ableist, but it's just mental illness, isn't it? What else would you even call this
What else would you even call this
Stress induced mass hysteria? Like those dancing plagues in medieval times
I saw your link and one of the recommended links was that show being interpreted through
.
All I can say about that is
Mentally ill. Seriously. When they start talking about hearing voices in their head, speaking in tongues and seeing the Illuminati everywhere it sounds like untreated mental illness. And instead of seeing a mental health professional, they'll see a quack pastor for treatment which makes it worse.
I grew up in that, it's my conclusion
Wasn't it Matt who said the average American voter has the brain of like a 10th century German peasant who believes in demons or something
My mom believes in ghosts and shit but it's like, mom, if everyone who dies goes to heaven or hell, where are all these damn ghosts coming from?
She also seems to believe in this literal idea that when you die god rewinds your life like a VHS and makes you watch it to shame you. Idk what bible verse THAT'S from
10th century German peasants were much more connected to reality because of regular grass touching.
All I've got for you is the keyword "Pentecostal mysticism"
It's an element of some (most?) kinds of Christianity, concentrated in but not confined to Protestant denominations. Pentecostals are an intense example like their name suggests, but Evangelicals are practically the same deal rebranded.
Notably, US Supreme Court Justice Barrett is a prominent member of the Catholic Pentecostal organization People of Praise where she held the title "Handmaiden"
Edit: wait, does anybody else have a supreme court, or is this US-specific chucklefuckery?
Other countries have supreme courts but America's is pretty messed up and also especially powerful.
Catholic Pentecostal
I was once at a catholic event where a priest was doing miracle healing. It was extremely funny to me because growing up, my catholic mom would constantly mock these practices and say it’s part of “fairy religions.” So the priest was going around speaking in tongues and people were “fainting” and when he got to me, I just stood there lol.
I didn't even know there were Catholic Pentecostal denominations until Barrett became national news. I'm morbidly curious about their theology, and how it does or doesn't interact with Protestant Pentecostal theology. Not curious enough to dive into it, but curious
The speaking in tongues, faith healing, and getting slain in the Sprite™ sound just like some of the rowdier services I've been to
What do I call those types of Christians?
Something between 'annoying' and 'violently ignorant'. Can't get a goddamn word in, they keep screaming about how Jesus would hate whoever they hate.
Jesus of course famous for his vindictiveness and support of judgemental and cruel religious authorities
LMAO I call her mom.
When I was young I remember reading a bit of a focus on the family produced book that my mother had purchased with the intent to raise me more evangelical-y (I think I was on the verge of or had recently gotten into my "Christians are irrational fooooools" new atheist phase) and it was all about how modern media existed to make boys and men look dumb. I think it complained about the Runaway Bride movie and also some commercial (or maybe this is the opening to the movie itself) where a boy is riding a rocking horse and then a girl is shown on a real horse.
CW: Homophobia

Later in the book it talked about making sure your boy wasn't gay and there was an anecdote about someone standing in front of a mirror nude and gyrating his hips to make his dick spin like a helicopter.
Anyways it's not just YouTube comment people, the thought leaders for these kinds of Christians sound exactly the same.
I'll take the heat for born again American Catholics in the room
Or like the weird tiktok christians who get hysterical when they see pagan imagery or even like weird sculptures in the vatican. Like my guy, putting up a modernist painting or an owl sculpture is not satanic recruitment.
Satan is when gender roles are cheekily upended and the more wholesome the more satan.
Every time a child drops his ice cream and cries, the devil becomes weaker.
Planting landmines in front of the town ice cream truck to own the Antichrist
Every time a child calls you a butthead, satan becomes more evil. Every time my wife tells me to put the seat up when I piss, I pray God strikes her for blasphemy
What is with these people that assume it is the normal and correct state of things for women to do 99% of the labour in a relationship now? "I'm the primary breadwinner but I will never ask my husband to fold laundry" like women are now expected to do the 9:00 to 5:00 job and all of the housework except for the like two things that are outside zero efforts jobs. "Oh but he grills" that's like once a week for 3 months out of the year. He stands around in the back yard sipping beers with the boys and that's his entire contribution to your lifestyle? "Oh but he would theoretically be the one to clear the gutters" that is literally a child's job, it's scooping goop. Also you live in an apartment building and have never had to do that literally ever.
We are beyond the level of "Skyrim pizza sex" and "league of legends blowjob" jokes. There are men out here who have not done anything but play video games, eat treats, and get laid in years and these are the same guys who post unhinged fascist screeds on twitter.

Guys whos only seen boss baby, watching a demonic possession: "Getting a lot of boss baby vibes from this"
My god I went to the end of the video and it’s hysterical:
you’re gonna throw the laundry at him, at his face, while he’s eating! Bacteria and germs are being thrown across the room. A little piece of fecal matter could land in his pot pie

God forbid they learn about what's on their tooth brushes, and what they're cleaning their teeth with alongside their toothpaste
