He thinks he is a WH4OK Space Marine Chaplain when reality he is a Chaos Cultist.

Not even Chaos. He’s just part of a Genestealer cult.

What are the genestealers? I’ve heard of them, but I don’t know what they do or who they are working for. I assume they are trying to get their hands on space marine geneseed but that’s about it.

Genestealers are a type of Tyranid, that as their name implies, attempts to use their enemy’s genetics against them. While they technically come in different types, they fulfill two roles: Pre-invasion Infiltration, and later on as shock troops and cannon fodder. They aren’t specifically after Space Marine genetics though I’m sure they wouldn’t upset if they did get themselves viable samples to integrate into the Tyranid biomass.

Pre-invasion, the infiltrate a populated area, with a combination of chemical agents and what can be surmounted as psionic abilities to obfuscate their clearly alien origin and hide from public view. They target weak minded individuals for brain washing, infecting them with a kind of virus that ensures their offspring are hybrid genestealers, growing the cult and gathering more followers to effectively worship the fullblooded genestealers who direct them in sabotaging the planet’s defenses and preparing for the invasion. After a few generations, the cult starts producing more full blooded gene stealers, who spread out and restart the process until the invasion begins, with their followers being totally brainwashed and traitors to their origin,

So in short, you have a large group of people who were already fairly weak willed and probably uneducated, rallying around an alien creature who has brainwashed them into believing the actual loyalists and educated are the ones bowing to outsiders, actively trying to tear down their own government and make an alien invasion easier. Nothing about this is familiar at all. Nope.

Can anyone remind me of Matt Gaetz’s stance on BLM protests? Judging by this affirmation he must’ve loved them right?

Why isn’t the FBI or the Secret Service paying this clown a visit?

How are they openly trying to incite violence without repercussions?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
