#Apocalypticism
It's related to the spread of evangelical Christianity throughout Latin America, known to be the hardcore base of support for Israeli ethnonationalist militarism in many nations--both because it leads to cheering for the slaughter of Muslims & Arabs and for fantasies of end times apocalypticism.

Zionism is to Judiaism what Fascism is to Christianity.

And I think you will find that Judaism & Christianity are basically the same religion. They worship the same god, just in different ways.

Chapter one of @gilduran.com "Nerd Reich" is about what I would call "the rich man's apocalypse," an apocalypse borrowing the language of standard religious apocalypticism but divorced from it by a commitment to the material dialectic of what @timnitgebru.blacksky.app has designated TESCREALism.

Hyperpartisanship and political apocalypticism often drive extreme rhetoric from political fringes. While hyperbole about "drinking Kool-Aid" reflects deep public anxiety researchers note that institutional norms, checks and balances, and pragmatic voter majorities historically curb extreme outcomes

Republics and democracies that started in Italy and whose political formulations spread across Europe to rein in aristocracy never recognized the inherent anti-democratic impulses of business ownership. Until Marx but more religious apocalypticism than politics it never turned out any better

It's the liberalism, and his lack of knowledge of Xianity outside the North Atlantic. The hopes of an old man from a dying era? Habermas also had a moment - an awareness of what is missing. My dad is 91 - he gets like that too. lol

But it's going to be violent apocalypticism, not perpetual peace.

Ha what BS. I also think that of Christianity and other religions, and unlike most Jews I’ve actually read Bible several times. Hard to believe people are still clinging onto gods in 21st century in face of mountain of evidence to support evolution.

Not so much Gaza as the creation of a ‘reborn Israel’
itself.

This is a top-down apocalypticism, rooted in the thinking of those @johnralstonsaul.bsky.social calls "Voltaire's Bastards"--a bevy of technocrats, animated by the ledger-like ethics of utilitarianism, and convinced there is nothing that cannot be measured and then commoditized, even human beings.

Moon Walker - Apocalypticism

"We fear the ultra violence
But it's already here
We fight fire with silence
And pray somebody hears
Obey all of the tyrants
God christened with his tears
There's no apocalypticism
It's already here"

This top-down apocalypse is to be contrasted with the bottom-up apocalypticism of the average American evangelical and hordes of others prepping for "The End of the World as We Know It."

Either way, they all contribute to destroying all faith in ourselves, making collective action near impossible.

Why Zionists felt the need to colonize Palestine is another story, that could really do with explaining, as most people are clueless to that also.

A ‘reborn Israel’ was more of a Christian fantasy than a Jewish one.

The other issue to be aware of is that much social media discourse revolves around/responds to American concerns/panics/moral issues which often reflect historical strains of paranoia and apocalypticism deeply embedded within American society.
Social media is a paranoia machine. It makes connections explicit, though not transparent. It not only allows you to trace ties between people, institutions, and events, but also continually produces new ties. On social media, everything becomes connected, and thus potentially suspicious

Pentecostals/Charismatics are a global vanguard of Christian supremacism and apocalypticism. AB is no exception.

Apocalypticism is an undercurrent in 2nd temple Judaism broadly

Yes, that's exactly right. Climate change has, for the left, turned into a thermoreligious apocalypticism, mirror image of the e/acc thermoreligious cosmicism; they want climate collapse to bring about the societal change they could not achieve, punish ~~the roman empire~~ capitalism for its hubris.
the moral hazard argument always collapses into theological penance if you poke it for five seconds. engineering out the damage offends people who want climate change to function as a moral reckoning rather than a thermodynamics problem.

America loves apocalypticism. We love the idea of our nation’s story even after it’s destroyed everything. Most of our stories of post-apocalypticism fail to imagine other nations across the ocean, because our end wouldn’t really be the end of everything. We just can’t imagine a world without us.

You made an assertion that is just factually wrong.

What little can be harvested from the earliest surviving Christian literature, and a handful of non-Christian sources, the earliest Christians were Jewish and somehow tied to apocalypticism (which was popular at the time.)
