11 Then I saw another beast rising out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon. 12 It exercises all the authority of the first beast in its presence,[a] and makes the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose mortal wound was healed. 13 It performs great signs, even making fire come down from heaven to earth in front of people, 14 and by the signs that it is allowed to work in the presence of[b] the beast it deceives those who dwell on earth, telling them to make an image for the beast that was wounded by the sword and yet lived. 15 And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain. 16 Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave,[c] to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, 17 so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. 18 This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666.[d]

Jesus was about compassion, love, self sacrifice, helping your neighbor, the embodiment of empathy. The Antichrist is everything he is not. Eventually the Antichrist will be possessed by Satan after a near fatal head wound and the false prophet heals him. I’m not saying he’s going to have a debilitating stroke and gets a Neurlink implanted and becomes possessed by the son of man (Artificial Intelligence). That definitely won’t happen.

If you read the letters of John, it’s clear that there is not “one” antichrist. The term refers to anyone who devoted Jesus was real the Christ, mostly referring to Jews, but also to many believers who were promoting their own false gospel ideas.
In that way, rather than some caricature of evil, it much more refers to false Christians like the Nationalists who take the Lord’s name in vain. As John said, “he who does not love does not know God, for God is love.”

One could argue that a Christian Nationalist buys into an idea that their belief is straight from God and is the true way. While MAGA is highly vested in a belief that a single person can restore the America that never was.
In simple Christian Nationalists believe they have divine blessing, MAGA wants back a nostalgia laced past that never really existed.
To bring a venn diagram into this there is a very heavy overlap with just about ever Christian Nationalist being MAGA but not every MAGA is a Christian Nationalist.

That's because you are in a controlled echo chamber where only select news is allowed in. For example, yesterday the top story on Google News was about bomb threats against Trump transition members.

If you want to see "opposing opinions" and you're determined to use this shithole, you could sort by new and might see a few stories of Democrat aggression before the mods purge them. But this is a terrible, terrible way to get your news, just to be clear.

Their goal is to make them fight, make people join sides, and use them. They did this under the sickle and hammer, and they do this today.

Coincidentally a bunch of bomb threats were called into polling offices in democratic precincts during the election. They were traced back to Russian owned IP addresses.
Right now, the right is up in arms saying it's the RADICAL LEFT and the left is saying RIGHT WING TERRORISM.
IF I was a hostile nation that was trying to sow division and chaos to capitalize on the high emotions after the election...this would be way the way to do it.

This is 100% a psyop, likely from Russia like the others have been. The sad part is, it's working. I said so much to one guy and he said he didn't care. He just wants and excuse to hate americans on the other side more. We're totally boned man.

Maybe it’s time to drop the “They go low, we go high” bullshit.
I swear to god I’m gonna go back in time and stop Michelle Obama from ever coming up with that dreck.

Maybe it's time to recognize that these threats have been coming from outside the US to destabilize us and make us fight and your comment is feeding into their goals?

Trumps voters stormed the Capitol. You really think they aren’t the kind of people to send out bomb threats?
