    You see… the old talking point for the rapture was how the bible says that the last generation will be when the fig tree ripens, or some symbolic shit like that.

    Evangelicals latched on to “the fig tree ripens” to mean Israel becoming a nation, and that was in the late nineteen forties, so give or take a few years, fudge the numbers a little bit, and this decal falls right within that range, most said a Jewish generation means 47 years… no, strike that, it’s 48… no, wait, I meant 49, it was supposed to be 50, so 51 it is… they kept pushing the bar, and here we still are, and so are they.

    I lost track and don’t care what these people blather on about currently, but I suppose the rapture pushers keep on clinging to any fucking sign, no matter how weak and random, and assigning an intricate, deliberate pattern out of it, full of false starts, dead ends and crazy loops, with a strong whiff of q-anon ‘n’ shit.
