Doesn't help that the US military are saying the recent war in Iran is to start a holy war and bring about the apocalypse. A death cult with nukes that want to take as many of us with them as they can. How is this being swept aside like every other "end of the world" theory? They're actively orchestrating it.

I hate to see people thinking an end is coming and then trying to make it worse. Whatever this all is we are here together.

Apocalyptic beliefs, amplified by apocalyptic AI

It's worth noting that what the study specifically focuses on is not so much the prevalence of apocalyptic beliefs but their forms, in particular the way that each form affects how its adherents respond different kinds of risks. The hope of this people running this study was that it might be useful in helping policymakers communicate with people.

(At least, this is what I have gleamed from the abstract and from reading a couple of articles about it, which is the best that I can do given that I am not willing to pay for access to it.)

Religious organizations that get involved in politics should be taxed heavily

I still think conspiracy theories are loony.
They are nowhere near as sick and bizarre as whatever is going on right now!

Duh. This is the hegemonic narrative promoted by zios and evangelicals. The zios get support for their theft, genocide, etc. The evangelicals get zio support and a scared, brainwashed congregation.

Both christian and jewish zionism are fundamentally based on the apocalypse. And that's the dominant imperial religion. It's sus that this article doesn't mention that at all.

The US is using AI in weapons. Hegseth is a moron and might put them in the nuclear arsenal.

This isn't conspiracy theories. The group of atomic scientists have moved the clock closer to midnight than it has ever been in history.

It is neither invalid nor bad to be concerned about the possible end of all life on earth.
