    “How does the Antichrist actually seize power? In late modernity, we finally have the answer: by talking constantly of Armageddon (or in secular terms, of existential risk).” Kulkarni writes. “He rides the wave of apocalyptic anxiety.”

    Thiel has been speaking for at least a year about the Antichrist

    Hmmm. I think I see a pattern here.

      At first I thought he was talking about the crisis they’re creating.

      Now they’re painting opposition to AI, opposition to Warrantless surveillance, opposition of tariffs and devastating economic decisions as the work of an antichrist.

      They’re trying to incite a holy war against anyone who opposes their industries.
