said Sahakyan. "I think it will resolve a lot of issues because we'll know exactly who's in here for what reasons, even though I miss [my wife] dearly. I think we could have a faster process [where they determine] she's not a radical, or tied to the crazies, let her out."
He's rationalizing what's happening. They are never letting her out. They are going to take her out of the country and she will never be coming back to the USA again. I wonder if that is what it will take for him to change his opinion.
I think you're right. He's been conditioned to keep the faith and look past the cult's obvious failure to keep its promise of protecting him and his; if he only keeps the faith, everything will surely come right. He still believes that surely dear leader would never hurt him. I think his wife getting flown out to Serbia without a trial miiiight just be the wakeup call.
Kinda sounds like religions...don't question, just believe.
At this point, I think it's pretty safe to call MAGA a religion, specifically an offshot of American Evangelism. I don't think you can call its faithful Christians anymore, because while they're happy to borrow all the trappings and symbols of Christianity, every place where Christ and Trump conflict, Trump wins, including who gets to be Godhead. I'm really not exaggerating, I think a lot of people have walked into an entirely new faith without yet realizing it. If you're looking for a modern anti-christ, it's hard to do better than Trump.
The followers of the antichrist will wear the mark of the beast on their foreheads
The antichrist will appear to be mortally wounded but miraculously survive
The antichrist is one who is arrogant and boastful, loves making public threats, and is obsessed with winning and being viewed as a conqueror
The antichrist will be someone who somehow sneaks into power rather than being properly handed it, specifically by colluding with a few powerful people because he does not have the majority on his side
Someone who will develop a cult of personality, and turn otherwise good people away from what they previously knew as righteous
Someone who’s rise to power and imperviousness to being stopped will serve as justification of his righteousness to those who have been tricked
Someone who “will distribute among his followers the plunder and wealth of the rich—something his predecessors had never done”(Daniel 11:24). Obviously were reading “followers” as his wealthiest friends that prop up his position
He will “try to change the set times and the laws”, “cause deceit to prosper”, and “will greatly honor those who acknowledge him. He will make them rulers over many people and will sell them land at a price.”
He will wage war on “the kingdom of the south” and target its people.
He will do everything that he does in service to himself and to the detriment of all those who are suffering:
There will be a leader over the land who will not help the ones who are dying.
He will not go looking for the young who got lost, or care for the children.
He won’t help the ones who are sick or broken, or even give nourishment to the hungry ones who are still healthy.” - Zechariah 11:16-17
He will be friends with a leader in Israel and “will do as he pleases; no one will be able to stand against him. He will establish himself in the Beautiful Land, and will have the power to destroy it. He will determine to come with the might of his entire kingdom, and make an alliance… then, he will turn his attention to the coastlands.” - (Daniel 11:16-18)
Literally the only aspect of Trump that doesnt match the biblical description of the antichrist is that the biblical antichrist is ultimately stopped by the courts. And we all know the supreme court isnt doing shit about this one…
the biblical antichrist is ultimately stopped by the courts.
Really? I'm interested in more about this. I'm not religious, but these parallels have always interested me, and I'd like to read more about this courts bit.
This is 100% correct. Evangelicals Christianity, never a beacon of rationality or clarity of doctrine, has now been fully captured by MAGA. There is no functional difference between Christian Nationalism and Evangelical American Christianity.
I worry this is only the beginning. I genuinely believe that Evangelicals will also embrace AI and incorporate it into their beliefs somehow. I also believe Trump will be divinized before his term is up - at least within Evangelical Christian Nationalism.
Cult, religion, two sides of the same fucking coin.
Gotta double down on the delusions or face the unimaginable guilt.
I'm not a psychologist but I suspect there's something amiss here.
Like a lot of these people if he steps back from his loyalty to Trump, he's kind of admitting that he's partially responsible for what's happened.
Clinging to this shaky narrative of how this is actually a good thing allows him to offload the guilt.
I think this might be "delusional" in the clinical sense.
Over time the belief becomes more entrenched. Something like muscle memory but a thought pattern. It will then become the basis for even nuttier thoughts.
It's sad for him, it's sadder for her, it's even sadder for their kids who might me next. It's just shit all the way down.
I do see a trend with the conservative base here where getting them to admit they are wrong about ANYTHING is like a personal attack and they simply are not equipped with the emotional prowess and maturity needed to learn from it.
Insert "Wife bad" boomerhumor.
just like my ex, after I supported her medical school she convinced my to move to the States with my kids, once settled and in school she wrote USCIS to cancel the greencard process behind my back.
I'm struggling to get my visa now, and probably end up in Alligator Auschwitz.
That really stinks, sorry that you're going through that. :/
Why not move back to the country you emigrated from? Assuming you still hold valid citizenship there? I would love the help trying to turn this shit around, but its too dangerous for you here.
His wife is getting fucked and he's asking for more. 'Round these parts we call that a cuck.
"I'm still supporting [Trump]," said Sahakyan. "Even though my friends say take the flag down, you're going through a lot. I'm like no. The flag stands."
Even my friends say I'm an idiot. I'm like, no I like being this way.
Racists tend to be very unkind to race-mixers and mixed people. They'll come back later for him and his kids.
It's probably been long enough that he was about to trade her in for a newer model, anyway
That's kind of what I was thinking. This is the kind of sick sociopath that kills his wife and kids and goes on the news about looking for the killer. You've got to be absolutely fucked in the head to not only abandon her to her fate in a concentration camp, one that you likely cheer for it's cruelty, but to watch that happen and fly the flag of the man who did it. Hopefully the kids manage to emancipate themselves as soon as legally possible. Assuming they don't get deported too.
American conservatives are a truly pathetic culture.
Remember folks: 1930/40’s nazis did this with Jewish friends, family, neighbors too. This is not a new formula.
Maga is nested inside misogyny. His wife's problems are subordinate to his political allegiance. He probably things that trump will recompense the loss of his wife.
When you want a divorce, but its a sin in your religion: ⬆️
Somebody called in the tip himself...
Take my wife, please!
He's a coward piece of shit.
He just wants a new wife.
My thought too. "Oohhhh noooo, they took her away. So sad." Downloads tinder
He can't be wrong. I don't think it matters if it effects him. He just can't be wrong.
Funny how these MAGA cucks hate gay people, but would be the first to hop on Donald’s dick.
That quote he said for justification of them taking his wife has got to be the biggest maga cuck bullshit I have ever read.
It's a cult.
People being ok with their own lives being uprooted for someone who should mean absolutely nothing to them is insane.
That's what happens when you don't actually love your spouse because she's just a tool for sex, housework, and children. He will probably start checking out her replacement when the house starts to smell.
Sure, at first glance, that sounds like he's strongly committed, but I don't see anything in the article about him buying those $250 bottles of Trump cologne. And that's before we talk about how much Trump memecoin he's purchased. A $50 MAGA hat is just entry tier, and you can find a wife any old place.
Stupid is as stupid does.
If your gonna be dumb you gotta be maga, when you get knocked down you better blame the libs.
Good, it would be hypocritical to only hold a view until it effects you
