First off, “lame” is a great description of all that Vance is and does. Second, I love this quote from the commentary:
>The clip is worth watching, and not just to marvel yet again at Vance’s ability to make idiotic statements in the self-assured tone of the smartest boy in the room.
Imagine thinking K pop demon hunters will fix youth outreach dude’s campaign feels like a bad anime filler episode.
His “career” is waiting out the Trump clock. And having no morals at all and managing to snake his way through life. He’s good at these two things.
any parapsychologist worth their salt knows Demons are beings from a lower realm, and aliens come from outer space. Good grief.
JD is a great grifter.
Nobody loves JD Vance quite like Dan Quale does.
No worries, Peter Thiel’s billionaire fortune will though
Can someone show us that old video of him dancing ??? Please so we can remember he’s a lamo lying slithering snake .
He has somehow become even more cringe than Ted Cruz.
It’s an interesting take, but I think misses the mark. Far-right US Catholics have been increasingly interested in demons as real beings that are acting maliciously in our world. Not just whispering in people’s ears to give them bad thoughts, but Constantine-style that people see sometimes.
This feels pretty insane to me.
I think it’s part of giving conservative US catholics permission to contradict the Pope as much as they do. There’s real demons out there fighting for evil, so we have to be ruthless holy warriors. It’s certainly in parallel with broader pop-culture relevance of magic and demons, but it’s not trying to make a “fellow kids” pop culture reference. I don’t think he’s catholic, but Peter Thiel has genuine delusional beliefs about the physical reality of demons and the anti-christ.
Whatever JD Vance once was, he’s *deep* in the hyper-conservative catholic bubble. I think we saw that leak out talking UFOs.
I am pretty sure this is a sincere thought, and he also believes his wife’s Hindu faith worships aliens/demons. He’s just that kind of guy
Nah, he’s just a religious fanatic like the rest of the admin
I think the plank in JD’s eye is blinding him to the demons he is and has surrounded himself with.
*That* was what he was going for? I didn’t read the interview, I just saw some headline about him babbling about believing in aliens and demons and figured he was in one of the kookier flavors of Christianity.
Vance is always like HELLO FELLOW HUMANS I WOULD LIKE TO PARTAKE OF SOME FRIED YEAST RINGS IN THE CUSTOMARY FASHION dude does not pass the Turing Test.
… that is as an attempt at being cool? That was equivalent to my mom telling me that the devil put the dinosaur fossils in the ground to trick people on the age of the earth. (Thus was the realization that my mom was not that bright)
Vance’s trials will be good, but maybe not as satisfying as Hegseth’s
He has to know to that he stands no political chance…anywhere without Trump. I honestly don’t know if he even had a political background of note before being VP but he’s definitely doesnt’y have enough going on as a standalone politican to be anything more than a Rep at most.
The man works with more real demons than any actual religious leader
There’s nothing this soulless idiot won’t say to try and curry favor
Only thing left is for him to come out at the next CPAC stage and sing Soda Pop to the women there.
Cool J.D. Vance shakes his head, “naww, it’s the demon rats that are dorky dorks. Everybody knows that silly.” As he gives a cool smirk to his cool followers.
I mean, calling other beings demons sounds like something a demon would do.
Equating UFOs to literal demons has been a popular talking point in the fringe spiritual conspiracy circles since at least the 90s. Whoever wrote this article is pretty far out of their depth when it comes to understanding these talking points and the dog whistles they contain. It has absolutely nothing to do with K-Pop Demon Hunters or reaching the youth. I hate that the circles I grew up in are in control of the country.
No it’s not. It’s him trying to get people to stop asking questions about Iran, Epstein, gas prices, tsa etc
It’s not youth outreach. Aliens have to be demons or else their cult falls apart.
What career? He’s barely a side character. Even someone with no more credentials than being married to a dead fascist is more relevant than J whatever.
Dumb article. Not a fan of JD at all but he’s been interested in UAP for a long time and the whole aliens are demons thing is really common in UAP circles. Has absolutely nothing to do with KPop Demon Hunters. Author is clueless.
K-pop is so 6 months ago. This looks like Kamala doing the 6-7 trend. Cringe
