Other zebras: good luck with that, bye!

Henri Philippe Pétain and Pierre Laval, the head and prime minister of France’s collaborationist Vichy government which hunted down and deported 67,000 Jews to the concentration camps. In addition to his Broadway plaque, Pétain is honored with 11 streets in the U.S… Stepan Bandera and Roman Shukhevych, who have busts in upstate New York and Wisconsin. Bandera headed a faction of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists, which allied itself with the Nazis and whose members eagerly participated in the Holocaust. Shukhevych, another Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists figure, was a leader in a Third Reich auxiliary battalion that carried out lethal antisemitic operations in service of the Nazis. Later, Shukhevych commanded the Ukrainian Insurgent Army, which massacred thousands of Jews and 70,000 to 100,000 Polish civilians. There are additional Ukrainian nationalist busts in New York and Ohio. Andrey Vlasov, the Soviet general who went over to the Nazis and raised an army of over 100,000 men for the Third Reich, has a memorial just outside New York. Dragoljub Mihailović, who led the Serbian Chetnik paramilitary that fought with Nazi Germany and carried out ethnic cleansing of Bosnian Muslims, has statues in Cleveland, Milwaukee and two Chicago suburbs. Chicago also has a memorial to Adolfas Ramanauskas-Vanagas, who commanded a unit of the Lithuanian Activist Front, a Nazi-allied organization whose members slaughtered Jews across Lithuania in the summer of 1941… You’ll see it in Viktor Orban’s Hungary, where far-right figures use elaborate ceremonies anchored to WWII anniversaries to draw neo-Nazis across Europe; Ukraine, where the rehabilitators of Bandera work to turn the country into a hub of transnational white supremacy; Croatia, where men carrying WWII fascist symbols marched in support of Donald Trump; and France, where the far-right Marine LePen rallies supporters by insisting that France has no responsibility for the Holocaust. You’ll see it in a dozen other nations as well…

sustained, weeks-long military campaign

Afghanistan is going to look like preschool.

No! 😱

Well that was a wild read.

“A friend of mine went to the mosque in saudi,” the Emirati wrote. “He said with all these terrorists Frankly you can’t tell wether the guy standing next to you is just scratching his balls or fiddling with the detonator button !!!”

Probably the most honorable thing this jackass ever uttered.

Ease of use, content creator tools, wide reach, free, less ads, more reasonably placed, no tracking, donation buttons, I’m sure there’s more.

Third. Party.

You’re welcome!

Well, aside from news, I don’t know anything about any practices of satanism, but fwiw, the tenants don’t clash with my understanding of Christianity, gnosticism, or Judaism, which is very incomplete, at best!

I bet they only cancelled long enough to rewrite in terms more favorable to Bezos.

That may help, but then is even questionable since there are seven heavens and Merkaba.

You’re welcome! Even though you follow Satanism, I daresay a deep dive into these topics will irrevocably change your understanding and relationship with your own faith! Another interesting point of reference to look into is the difference in understanding between Judaism and the ha-satan and Christianity’s Satan!

Literally chuckling, first sip of coffee barely swallowed in time to avoid spilling!

I’m currently on the Jesus was not a vegan bend. This one is pretty tough I’ve gotta say

Hard to say, but he celebrated Passover after the trumphal entry on the ass, and was welcomed and financed by enough people “of means,” that lamb was probably served. Additionally there are the five loaves and two fishes miracle, so I’m not sure. I lean toward agreement with you, although it’s possible he restrained from fish and lamb, himself, as we’re simply not told.

I will encourage you he literally told the disciples not to take everything so literally, after the Sermon on the Mount, when asked why he taught in parables. My latest hypothesis is that in certain instances, “dead/death” referenced spiritually dead (eating from the tree of life, dead bury the dead), and the reason his teachings not being for those who didn’t understand the parables is because those people had hardened their hearts (empty cups), and hadn’t done the spiritual work (being spiritually alive) to understand. Wait until you start digging into Judaism and Jewish mystacism! 🤯 The soul is truly taught differently!

Anyway, best along your journey, may it ever bring you closer to union within yourself and the Divine.

Yes. As Christians we’re largely taught not to question or doubt. I’m hard-headed, and wanting to better understand my faith had changed it in irrevocable ways, over the years. Regardless of the faiths I’ve explored, I keep ending up at the same place, different vantage point, like climbing an eternal spiral staircase, and the ancient mystical symbol found on cave walls makes more sense, and clues us that these people were much more intelligent than we credit them. In short, lack of language/vocabulary != lack of intelligence, ability to think deeply. We just rely more heavily on different brain hemispheres. If we ever evolve to the place where the larger world populace uses both equally and simultaneously, I’ll daresay we will become “as gods,” able to eat from every tree in the metaphorical garden!

It’s taken me several years to get all this stuff, and we’re just not taught it. Christianity has it’s own political agenda, largely began to validate Constantine’s conquests, evolved over time to support European’s and USA’s.

And Judaism began as Abraham leaving either Babylon or Chelsea, choosing to worship one of their many gods, and conquer and colonize, and so on since Summer and before.

Yes.

You’re welcome, and thank you for that reddit post! It’s quite fascinating and largely aligns with my current understanding. Part of the reason for yhwh allowing the conquering and exiles of the Jewish people was for “whoring after other gods” and Baal was one of several. In this context, the “covenant” between yhwh and his people meant “marriage” so the Hebrews worshipping other gods was adultery, punishable by death, so conquering, exile, and occupation was indicative of G-d’s mercy on his people, because of his love and compassion.

If you do a deeper dive, some of the Hollywood movies begin to make more sense, and even deeper will change your understanding of the various names of G-d, akin to the Brahmans’ saying, “Brahma is one, the faces of Brahma are many.” Deeper still and you learn how modern Christianity also corrupted the common understanding of souls, the tree of life (and tree of death), the shattering of the vessels (mazel tov!) and so. much. more!

Baal simply means “Lord,” or “master,” as I stated earlier.

Baal looks a lot like Baphomet in that photo.

YHWH was originally the Caanite desert warrior and storm God, according to YouTube Esoterica, run by Dr. Justin Sledge, who is Jewish and has excellent deep-dive videos on that channel. These are subjects deeply interesting to me as I started my own faith and have had to turn increasingly to Judaism and the suppressed books taken from the same Dead Sea scrolls as Gnosticism, found at Qum Ran, and included in the Ethiopian Bible, which you can find in English, also on YouTube and elsewhere online, with digging.

Basically, the Council of Nicea worked for Constantine, who had a political interest in regular people not getting ideas to violently uprise against his authority, much like slavers giving slaves a different version of the Bible than the slavers read.

It’s been quite an enlightening, years-long journey, learning how much words or phrases were mistranslated from Aramaic to Greek and Latin, deliberately, or from misunderstanding, which were then mistranslated again, into English. Multiple scribes with their own biases and fallibities, as were, I would imagine, Jewish scribes before them, in addition to how tales change from one telling to the next, for multiple generations. The person to whom you are replying is probably closer to correct than incorrect, and quora, like Reddit and Lemmy, can get things right, wrong, or an amalgamation, according to their own writers’ understandings and biases. Here, I’ve cited my sources so it’s a rather fascinating and winding journey, if you’re ever inclined to go digging. I’m saying this as someone who regularly disagrees with the person to whom you replied here as often as I’ve agreed with you, so it’s not that I’m choosing their side based on personal feelings, for whatever that’s worth or not.
