The YouTube Blood Magic Cult (Premium E286)
Added 2025-04-22 01:16:37 +0000 UTCSome believe that they can make a better world just by posting enough online. But the YouTube-based Blood Over Intent community raises the stakes by literally bleeding for their beliefs.
Born from the trauma of Mark Braun, a Florida plumber turned self-styled Satan incarnate, Blood Over Intent promises followers a ticket to paradise, provided they upload a DIY blood ritual to social media. The kicker? Members claim that smearing a drop of their blood on hastily scrawled intentions will unlock a mythical Arctic portal to Eden underneath the flat earth.

I mean if the pope is from Chicago I can see the devil being from Jersey. The stuffed crust pizza universe topology makes sense too the curled up higher dimensions are the crust cheese

2025-05-06 22:47:24 +0000 UTCI disagree with the decision to cover this to an extent, I feel this episode could wait on the current political climate. Please focus on, for example, the rfk debacles

2025-04-30 13:02:35 +0000 UTCSomewhere between the birth of the New Left and rise of QAnon there were performance artists doing things that embraced the expanded vocab of artmaking and freedom; now, a lot of those moves get done by Qheads and Chuds in the retraction of social freedom and the end postwar order. Whether they’re knowingly connected IDK but for so much of the wackadoo shit the podcast covers there’s been an Art star somewhere who explored it first in a naive way for expanding freedom of speech or protesting war etc. and now the right is embracing that society of the spectacle with the purpose of contracting it behind them, closing the Stargate.

2025-04-27 13:28:09 +0000 UTCI wonder what the podcast thinks about performance artist Chris Burden’s Shoot (1971). This is the video w/o context: https://vimeo.com/258122957 This is context from NYT: https://youtu.be/drZIWs3Dl1k?si=a1emshpc0A3BOcMD

2025-04-27 13:19:40 +0000 UTCunironically, this feels very Highschool Knife Guy. At least when I was in school, every school had at least 2 or 3 guys who brought knives to school, made a ton of edgy jokes, and would do stuff exactly like claiming that they are Satan or making up complicated mythologies for themselves. This really feels like something a knife guy would cook up and iterate on. Super fucked up that it escaped containment and caused a murder

2025-04-25 22:05:12 +0000 UTCFan of the show, not a fan of this episode. Seems a bit like punching down. The people involved in all of this story are sick, the chemical imbalances in their brains are fucking with their reality, and it’s awful. I see no difference between this man and the homeless men on every street of Seattle, looking for half burnt cigarettes on the floor and believing they are the antichrist. The ones discussed here just happen to have an Internet connection. No connection to reality, disturbed, and seriously let down by society by allowing this guy to be this level of mentally fucked. He IS a harm to himself and others. So let’s use our hefty internet platform to exploit them for more content? Yall are better than this. This one’s pretty methed up.
