Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

According to several US government whistleblowers this is actually a common sentiment within the Pentagon.
Most UFO/UAP reports can be dismissed via conventional explanations. But about 5% can't be. And for those, a number of influential government insiders are adamant that they are literally demonic. Not that they might be extraterrestrial, extra-dimensional, or whatever other explanation. No, they believe they are literally Satanic demons from Hell. Presumably flying around in Satanic vehicles. Not surprisingly, most of the people holding onto this idea are staunch evangelical Christians.
This theory seems to have taken root with the idea that some US scientists in the 1930s or '40s opened a portal (or portals) to hell. Possible deliberately, or possibly by accident. And since then a steady stream of entities have come through to do work for Satan.
It doesn't surprise me that a bumbling dipstick like Vance believes this.
We truly live in the weirdest, most stupid timeline.
I think Republicans are demons.
Kenneth Copeland couldn't even find a human suit that fits.
He's pandering to religious morons. He's dumb, but not that dumb.
If J.D. Vance believes in demons, he must also believe he is going to hell.
Obviously I am very skeptical that he believes either. He believes in getting all that he can in this life, no matter the cost to others.
Small minded ignorant religious people suck
“I have not been able to spend enough time on this to understand it. But, trust me, I’m obsessed with this,” Vance said. “I’ve already had a couple of times where I’ve said, ‘All right, we’re going to Area 51, we’re going out to New Mexico, we’re going to sort of get to the bottom of this.’ And then the timing of the trip didn’t work out. But, trust me, anybody who’s curious about this — I’m more curious than anybody. And I’ve got three years at the very tippy top of the classification. I’m going to get to the bottom of it.”
Translation:
"Could this be a distraction from the child rape, coverup, civil rights abuses, and illegal wars?"
I dont understand, therefore: gods and/or monsters
Unfortunately I've heard this exact refrain from at least one small town Christian couple up here in the northeast
I get these vibes, too, from some of the increasingly trad-aestheticized Catholics I grew with, which is actually antithetical to the actual stance of the Catholic church which is, y'know, science and God go hand in hand, evolution is real, big bang happened , etc, etc
Edit: like suddenly those Catholics are ALL ABOUT demons and learning about demons. One was trying to tell me Labubus are based on Chinese demons and I blurted out "oh you believe in their demons too? Like not just Christian demons but ones from Eastern tradition as well" dude did not understand what I was asking so I dropped it to not be too much a dick
To be fair you don't need to believe a thing "demons" is real to believe someone based a product on it.
A common thought for that period of time on earth the usa is heading back to....
Exactly this.
If they are real, that’s a bad start to do any negativity towards them. They could be Vulcan
Demons were probably some enemy force originally. For a modern day, winners side example, the Axis powers would be "demons" vs the Allied forces. Early history was word of mouth, classic game of telephone, before it was common to write it down. Add in revisionist history on top of it.
Is this the Stargate sub?
Shady Vance saying a lot of things this week. Peter Thiel must be very busy preparing these statements.
The Christian Identity and Army of God types have been on this shit since the 80s, and their brand of evangelicalism is now the mainstream, big-box version.
UFOs, witchcraft, lizardmen, the illuminati, hollow earth, flat earth, chemtrails, gay frogs, razor blades in candy, pick one. Anything that can be used to confuse or scare people is 100% real, it was sent by Satan, it's coming for your children, and only White Jesus can help.
