@MadelaineLucyH According to some analysts, the goal is to plant the meme that will be memorable: whether that is pleasure (Pepsi generation, bouncing babes) or cognitive dissonance (arms that don't seem to be attached) or anger (negroes fondling blonds).

Ok I can explain this to you, because unlike this bunch of losers I’ve worked in marketing. What we market to you is this: An identity you want > A product > A sale Doesn’t matter if it’s a teapot or a banking app. That’s what you do with an ad. Does it make you feel smart? Prestigious? In on the joke? Cool? Safe? That’s how advertisers think. If I say “This hat is cool, and good!” that’s a 2/10 ad. If I say “This hat is the hat you wear on holiday this year when the warm Italian sun floods the vineyards” that’s already put the hat on your head and a luxury holiday. Now, most people do not like racism. I know that’ll shock you because of Elon’s whack algorithm, but most people identify as “not a racist”. Easiest way to say to someone, look how open minded we are, and you are just like us? Diversity in an ad. It’s just sales. You’re just dumb so you see an “agenda”.

@Ihateudot @BonifaceOption No I'm talking about your characterization of the virgin, what she is in God's eyes, and how you know that.

@RealTimHarris @BonifaceOption Not claiming any such thing. I posted this same thing on another thread and Tom Buck liked it. That's the approval. Besides, it's obvious that this is what he was saying.

What this means, of course, is that Tom is obviously instructing the lovely young ladies in his church that there is (probably) something sinfully wrong with them if they feel the guy who spent the last decade as a fat, lazy, stoned slob, often in and out of jail, who just last week got saved, stopped smoking pot, started going to the gym, and finally found a job is NOT an ideal prospect for marriage.

@Sola_GPT @rogerecoff The examples you give to prove your assertion aren't in any creed though.

@rogerecoff It’s not just Calvinism The god of creedal Christianity in general is pretty moral abhorrent Binary flip a coin Heaven-Hell is a cartoon- this isn’t how God operates Harps and clouds vs flaming 🔥 forever doesn’t ring true to most people and they are crashing out

One reason why I hate the doctrines of Calvinism is because it gives an easy W to false religions.

@Ihateudot @BonifaceOption Wow. A claim of divine omniscience combined with a rejection of every feature of civil society.

@BonifaceOption No, I think it means what he says. ie; that he'd rather his son marry a blood bought repentant woman who's past was promiscuous rather than a self righteous virgin who is still in her sins and is still filthy in God's eyes. Paraphrased it for you.

@elonmusk It's not just impossible to prove. It's impossible not to be occurring. It's an iron-clad law of human behavior.

No voter ID, especially when combined with mail-in ballots, means the system is engineered to make fraud impossible to prove. Everyone knows that you can barely get through your week without showing ID for the most banal activities, like shopping at Costco. The only reason to ban ID is to hide massive voter fraud.

@UltraDane I seriously doubt it.

c. 1933 5th wheel for parking! A hydraulic mechanism lowered the spare tire to lift the rear wheels slightly off the ground, allowing the car's rear end to pivot or slide sideways for much easier parallel parking or tight maneuvers.

@ShoahUkraine Your own words will condemn you on the Great Day.

I get hundreds of comments every day accusing the Red Army of this or that, trying to trick me or others into morally siding with them. Let me say this once and for all. Whatever you are accusing the Red Army of, I think they should have done 100 times worse. The fact that we did not build a Tower of Babel from the skulls of dead Germans in the middle of Berlin means they got off easy.

@PastorAndyWebb That poseur Ron Henzel was doing his slander already 10 years ago.

@PastorAndyWebb I deeply resent Spangler getting all the credit. I was pointing these truths out 20 years ago. firstword.us

Every Day on X, Michael Spangler further vindicates the decisions of the OPC, ARP, and RPCNA against him and his fellow Spanglerites. Today it's calling for "A Protestant Hitler" to be our ruler, and attacking Reformed Christian Corrie Ten Boom and her family (most of whom died in Nazi Concentration camps) for hiding Jews during the Second World War. Ironically, although they call me a foreigner who will never be an American, I could not have been naturalized as a US Citizen holding to their views, and could be denaturalized and deported if I were posting the Nazi garbage they post and repost online. Romans 16:17! @spanglermt @ket38111 @dugganap68 @ptomer

@johnandrewwords That's ridiculous. Faux wisdom with no basis, feigning omniscience.

The strategy of never apologizing, never retracting, and even doubling down no matter the circumstances is a type of false performative masculinity that has absolutely nothing to do with truth or virtue. The type of man who will never correct a mistake or retract a statement is, ultimately, not displaying masculinity, but rather cowardice. He fears man rather than God.

@Ferndiggity when the wicked perish, there is shouting, Prov 11:10b.

Under no circumstances is this an acceptable thing for anyone to say, let alone the President Of The United States. No Christian should celebrate this statement. How incredibly shameful.

@AOC It's a violation of the 10th commandment. That's the first point to make.

This is sad. I know as a politician these companies are going to spend a billion dollars against me for saying it but 🤷🏽‍♀️ Pervasive gambling is not good for society. It turns life into a casino, traps people in addiction & debt, surges domestic violence, and fosters manipulation.

@CoreyJMahler I like to explain that most of these problems could be solved in a long weekend. Admittedly, some would take a month or two.

Every problem we face is solvable — many with trivial ease. Most don’t have the stomach for the solutions, though.

@sassiterian These are what are known as correlative truths. The sin is very deep, but so are the ruined lives in an Aristotelian sense.

Lotta Christian men talking about Christian women with a promiscuous past on this app. Anecdotally, the young, churched men were more promiscuous than the young churched women when I was growing up. I am in my mid 30s. Perhaps that's changed with the younger generation. But all y'all ignoring that promiscuity is certainly not limited to women.

@WanjiruNjoya Still-- I would like to know how much of the wealth of Newport and Providence derives from the slave trade.

I believe the South has a right to speak about their history without constantly being forced to turn it into a discussion of slavery. Rhode Island was the home of the slave trade and they're allowed to speak without being told "but you were slave traders!" when they say anything

@WellsJorda89710 Can't get past the 4th sentence. The Arabs are also offspring of Abraham.

🚨Why I Am A Christian Zionist 🔥🚨 I'm a Christian. And unapologetically, I'm a Zionist. Not because of politics or headlines—but because the Bible I read cover-to-cover demands it. God made an **everlasting covenant** with Abraham: "To your offspring I will give this land... forever." (Genesis 12:7, 13:15, 17:8) He didn't say "temporarily." He didn't say "until the Church shows up." He said **FOREVER**. Then He doubles down: "I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse." (Genesis 12:3) That's not optional. That's a divine command for how we treat the Jewish people today. Fast-forward: After 2,000 years of exile, persecution, and the Holocaust... the Jewish people returned home. Israel reborn in 1948. Coincidence? No. Prophecy fulfilled. "I will bring them back to this land... never again to be uprooted." (Amos 9:15) "The dry bones shall live!" (Ezekiel 37) We're watching the Bible come alive in real time. Paul warns us in Romans 11: Don't be arrogant toward the natural branches (the Jews). God hasn't rejected His people. He's grafting them back in—and we're called to stand with them. Supporting Israel isn't about blind loyalty to a government. It's about faithfulness to God's unbreakable promises. In a world quick to curse and boycott the only Jewish state... I choose to **bless**. Because my Bible says to. Because history proves it: Nations that bless Israel thrive. Those that curse? Not so much. Because one day, the King of the Jews will return to Jerusalem—and I want to be on the right side of that. Call me old-fashioned. Call me biblical. But yes—I am a Zionist. Proudly. Who's with me? Drop a 🇮🇱 if you stand with God's promises! #WhyIAmAZionist #ChristianZionism #BibleTruth #StandWithIsrael #GodsCovenant #EverlastingPromise

@JennMGreenberg It's not seemly for girls to accost men in public.

I don’t know what a spangler is, but I think he’s popped one.

@dugganap68 Whenever I have gone in for a new license, the machine asks me if I want to register to vote, and no credentials are asked for. Only 1776 or 1861 can avail against these usurpers.

Exactly how is "Voter ID" going to solve election integrity problems, when the very state agencies that give out IDs also register people to vote, AKA motor-voter, and they give these IDs to both legal and illegal aliens?

@aaron_renn True but let's talk about the single and sole reason everyone wanted to do that.

That house was probably built in the suburbs in the 1960s, and the people who bought them were moving away from the neighborhood where they grew up.

@JennMGreenberg You've got a lot to learn honey. Intuition is not a good hermeneutic. Start with John Murray's Principles of Conduct, where this is discussed in depth.

I’ll never forget, once in Sunday school at an OPC church here in Texas, the pastor asked, “If you lived in Nazi Germany, and you had Jews hidden in your house, and Nazis came knocking on your door asking where any Jews are, would it be sinful to lie?” Obviously, the answer is no. I was shocked when two men said yes, it would be a sin to lie to Nazis, Even if telling the truth would get innocent people killed. To be clear, I grew up in the OPC and had never encountered this nonsense, and I do not think this is normative in the OPC. However, the fact that Spangler used to be OPC, and is now praising Hitler, demonstrates that it isn’t a phantom threat either. It has to be stamped out. What about the Hebrew midwives who lied to the Egyptian soldiers to protect the baby boys from death? Were they not praised as courageous and virtuous? What about Rahab who hid the Hebrew spies and lied to the soldiers of Jericho to turn them away? Was she not redeemed and rewarded by God? The commandant in Exodus 20:16 says, “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.” In other words, do not maliciously spread untruths or use your words to harm innocent people. To aid the Nazis is to break the commandment. To deceive the Nazis is to protect the innocent, defy evil, and partake in an historic tradition of honoring God by thwarting evil.
