MODERATORS
 

Don went ahead and notified me about this new position at around 6:30 a.m. PDT, so I might as well introduce myself here (hopefully, this doesn't break any of the rules I don't know about, Don).

The name's Mugita Sokio (surname: Mugita), a Protestant Historicist who always looks at history from a sense of how the book of Revelation in Christianity (not the mainstream form, to be clear) had been fulfilled in its prophecies over the past 2,000 years. This is on our almost 6,000 year-old planet (yes, I'm a young earther). That's where I have most of the history I've learned as of the past year, so that's where I have my perspective. This is why I tend to get downvoted on Lemmy a lot, due to me questioning mainstream narratives (both conservative and liberal political views of an event), and going down a different path. I break the narrative of duality, hence, why I get downvoted a lot (and frankly, I don't care about that, as I have thick skin).

Interpreting history from a historicist sense is easy for me, and I use this formula: If an event is talked about all over news media (including the alternative of the mainstream), there's a very good chance it was scripted by the Jesuit Order (who wrote the script of history since at least the 1500's), and it was performed by the 33rd or higher degrees of Freemasonry (a Jesuit front since 1776's founding of the Bavarian Illuminati). Be it a ritual sacrifice of a homo sapien disguised as a suicide, or a humiliation ritual against all homo sapiens by the Holographic Ultimate Materia for the Absolute Network (HUMANs). It's all about forcing people to practice Roman Catholicism, which will be the Mark of the Beast (reverence [forehead] and obeisance [right hand] to the Pope, enforced since 538 AD) enforced again. It hadn't been that way since 1798, but will be after WWIII settles.

If you have any questions for me, I can answer them here in a timely manner... I hope, anyway.

... you have to be fucking kidding me.

[–] PlantJam@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Surely this has to be satire, right?

[–] PugJesus@piefed.social 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I would legitimately struggle to construct a satire more ridiculous than this without invoking Atlantis, ancient aliens, or the Nation of Islam.

[–] Sergio@piefed.social 2 points 3 days ago

You're talking about "The History Channel", right?

[–] msokiovt@lemmy.today 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

It's not. Don vetted my writing, and she was very clear about it to me.

[–] PlantJam@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

How will your personal beliefs impact your moderation of this community?

[–] msokiovt@lemmy.today 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I've already been removed from moderation for potential moderation concerns. Did you read the parenthetical in the title?

[–] msokiovt@lemmy.today 0 points 4 days ago

Don had taken a look at my writing style, and how I responded to things (I even told her what I talked about). She's likely still vetting it, but I have brought on knowledge that isn't mainstream.

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 5 points 3 days ago

Is this a shitpost? Genuinely can't tell.

[–] nocturne@slrpnk.net 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (2 children)

hopefully, this doesn't break any of the rules

What the fuck is it with mods who do not know the rules of the subs in which they mod?

So I am guessing !askhistorians@lemmy.world is now to historical reality as ~~!conservative@sh.itjust.works is to right wing stuff? (For the mods whose heads this will go over, that means this community is satire now.)~~

Edit: I was wrong to compare this community to a satire community, this is now a shitpost community.

[–] Patnou@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Woah woah woah everyone calm down. We have only had one report. This is not a shitpost community I made it clear from day one. That this is my first time modding and there will be hurdles along the way. Mods are held to the same standard as everyone in this sub. And we are bipartisan. And I left for two hours to go to a doctor but did not expect to come back to a shit storm. So just bare with me.

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Probably should see if any historians want to mod instead of people who believe in easily disproven pseudoscience. This comm is dead with this post up. No historians will post here.

[–] Patnou@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I am trying my best we have gained a lil traction so their maybe some potholes along the way. So just bare with us.

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 1 points 3 days ago

I get it. All my comms I started didnt go well either. I do appreciate the effort to get an ask historians here in the fediverse.

[–] msokiovt@lemmy.today 0 points 4 days ago

All for introducing myself, and giving my process in how I do things.

Good thing you're doing what you're doing now for safety reasons.

[–] msokiovt@lemmy.today 0 points 4 days ago

I already knew the rules. Why I made the comment of not wanting to break rules I didn't know about (which you seem to have taken out of context) was because I wanted to make sure there was something that wasn't clear to me that Don would be able to notify me about.

That's all it is, really.

[–] zeppo@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

I see. If you really believe in the "young earth" based on religious texts (I presume) and that any historical even discussed in the media was faked by Jesuits, I doubt if I'll be giving much credence to any historical information you can offer. That doesn't mean you can't be a good mod though, I guess. Perhaps there can be some interesting historical events or perspectives that you can share, but I'd definitely be alerted I should be looking for concrete evidence given that you believe in Christian prophecies.

[–] tomiant@piefed.social 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

You don't think genuinely esposuing bronze age beliefs and being fundamentally opposed to basically every branch of science is a problem for their credibility? I'd say that's disqualifying for even being able to keep up with normal social conversation, you might as well put your faith in the Taliban to be fair and reasonable.

This has got to be a troll, that's the best case scenario, so in either case they have no business peddling their bullshit here, they can take their delusions back to the desert caves they came from.

[–] zeppo@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

I said "I doubt I'll be giving much credence to..." what they might say.

[–] msokiovt@lemmy.today -1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I'd be happy to let you know specifically if my opinion is stated as such, as I had been doing in this community. That said, most of the mainstream narratives tended to be lies, and knowing how to apply Revelation to the 1,900 or so years after its writing in 95 A.D., it's likely at the hands of the Earth Beast, which is the Jesuit Superior General (that's the symbol of the Earth Beast in Revelation 13).

Fun Speculation about the Scriptures: They were likely not released in full until 700 years or so after Revelation was written. My speculation is that the Catholic Church had to edit them to deny the deity of Messiah Yeshua (whom most call Christ Jesus).

[–] zeppo@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

So, you're saying that the 'mainstream narratives' are lies, but you believe in the accuracy of the book of Revelation? Why are you involved with a history community and not something about Christianity?

The Catholic Church denies that Jesus is a deity? I haven't seen that before.

[–] schmorpel@slrpnk.net 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

What do you make of archaeological finds like Göbekli Tepe, or palaeontological finds like dinosaur bones? I don't want to dismiss your perspective out of hand but of course the tendency is strong. I do however believe in different layers of reality that might not always coincide with a purely scientific perspective, so I'm curious.

[–] msokiovt@lemmy.today -2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I've never heard of the archeological find you speak of. As for paleontology, I personally think it's just a bunch of hogwash if we go further back than around 5,000 years.

As to your comment about different layers of reality, I happened to think that the past, present, and future are happening all at once. Once a quantum level, everything happened at the same time, and observation brings whatever event it is in a specific state of being. There's an audiobook I listened to called The Theory of Everything: A Unified Version of Reality by Ash G. (It's on YouTube if you want to look it up). In it, it does mention that our universe is allegedly over 4 billion years old, though I personally don't agree with that part. Otherwise, it's worth a listen.
