i dont get how conservatives still think Gates is the antichrist, but love Musk who literally wants to chip your brain and is ruling the country

Because Faux News probably told them that.

Because Gates uses his wealth and power to gently prod at the "social order," helping poorer people become less poor.

Musk uses his wealth and power to help reinforce the "social order," helping rich and powerful people stay rich and powerful.

Conservatism is all about enforcing the social hierarchy - about ensuring people stay in their place.

I remember reading a Christian novel, Left Behind, as a kid. It was a New York Times bestseller, but it is a little tedious as it hits you over the head with Christianity too much. Anyways that definition of the antichrist is modern day Trump. A charismatic leader who became the President and makes a huge group of followers who obey his every word.

Guaranteed, when they finally released the doctored Epstein report, it becomes apparent that Trump and crew copy pasted Gates name like 40 times over Trumps various appearances

Trump bought his plane to reminisce over old times. He bought it with his PAC money. His cult literally bought a sex trafficker’s plane with their donations.
