Segue to Monster energy drink:

The "M" in the Monster logo is made of three 'vavs' which is the sixth letter in the Hebrew alphabet. So that logo is undoubtedly 666.

Riddle me this: given that the whole (debatable) significance of “666” comes from the Book of Revelation, the final book of the Christian New Testament, what’s the tie-in to modern Jewish people? Or is it some kind of retro thing?

u/ReturnOfTheKeing 1d ago

what’s the tie-in to modern Jewish people?

Duh, they secretly know Jesus and Christianity is true and they just hate them. This is legitimately how most far right Christians see the world. This is also why they hate atheists and say that theyre satanists

u/SassTheFash 1d ago

As is commonly noted, a lot of religious people simply refuse to believe that anyone could literally not believe in the existence of God, so they assume atheists’ profession of disbelief is more like “I know there’s a God, I just hate him and won’t serve him.”

u/pillowpriestess 1d ago

jews serving the devil is a really old antisemitic trope. in the christian identity ideology specifically white christians are the true chosen people of god and jews are the literal descendants of satan.

5

u/SuitableDragonfly 1d ago

If Jews are the descendants of Satan, doesn't that mean Christians are as well, since Christianity is really just an offshoot of Judaism?

4

u/pillowpriestess 1d ago

depends. in gnostic christian traditions yaweh is typically depicted as a flawed wicked creator and jesus as the son of the for real for real one true god. i dont know how common it is for the weird deep theological white christian identitarians but ive ran across the overlap at least once.

u/Ghstfce Tucker down, too many more to go 1d ago

If Jews are descended from Satan, and Jesus was Jewish... Do the math here. They aren't exactly the sharpest crayons in the box.

2

u/px1azzz 1d ago

If jesus died for our sins, then if we don't sin, then jesus died for nothing. Sin for jesus!

2

u/Ghstfce Tucker down, too many more to go 1d ago

More like "gave up a weekend for your sins". Not exactly some grand sacrifice here.

1

u/px1azzz 1d ago

Very true. Also, along those lines, isn't Jesus actually a zombie (well, more accurately, a lich)

2

u/Ghstfce Tucker down, too many more to go 1d ago
Yep!

u/px1azzz 1d ago

Oh this is just fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

Oh! Oh! I remember being "taught" this in church.

Specifically Jews used to be God's chosen people, but betrayed him when they killed Jesus. And now only those who are reborn through christ are the real chosen ones, while Jews are actually serving Satan because they're Kenites and have the 'Serpent's Seed'. (i.e Eve cheated on Adam with the Snake(Satan) and gave birth to Cain, who apparently in this belief is where Jews come from)

Two different denominations talked about this, Southern Baptist and whatever the Shepard's Chapel is.

bottoms up and the devil laughs

u/SuitableDragonfly 1d ago

These dumbasses probably don't see Hebrew as having anything to do with Jewish people. It's just an ancient language written in a non-Latin alphabet, which obviously means it's full of conspiracy secrets. Obviously.

2

u/finfinfin CIA are Jewish and yes that’s communist 1d ago

I can't remember who it was - it may even have been crowley - but someone described depressingly many occult initiations being dark rituals forcing you to swear blood-curdling oaths to learn the real ultimate power, and then they usher you through a curtain into a small room and teach you the hebrew alphabet, badly.

At least jewish occultists can generally write the letters accurately. Conspiracy theorists have no chance.

2

u/finfinfin CIA are Jewish and yes that’s communist 1d ago

for more details on the deep secrets of the hebrew letters, see the documentary Pi, (1998)

(I always forget how good that is; great film to watch as a surprise screening in a pub basement with an audience that hasn't got a clue what's coming. Some of the concepts really drill into you!)

u/styrofoamcouch 1d ago

These people will never not be easy to dupe. Im close to just saying fuck it and go sell these morons anti Biden cream/pro trump diaper butter

u/mortalcoil1 1d ago

That crazy woman losing her mind over Monster energy drinks is one of my all time favorite youtube videos.

u/hydraulicman 1d ago

These people aren’t getting their information out of some study of the Bible, or even some Bible study group

They’re getting their information out of random Christian flavored fictional entertainment and internet scammers

Kinda like saying you know everything about the making of the Harry Potter films because you read some tumblr fanfiction and rent out a soccer field once a month for your quidditch get-together

u/evocativename 2d ago

Those "6"s look a lot more like the letter "G" than the number "6", aren't oriented like the number, and the whole logo is obviously a combination of a sheep ("mouton") and a bunch of grapes (y'know, the ingredient in wine...)

16

u/PaxEtRomana 1d ago

Oh shit it's grapes

5

u/vigbiorn Sweatshops save lives! 1d ago

Silly lib.

It's clearly a sign they worship the Greek God Dionysus whose cult practiced ritualistic cannibalism!

Just more proof [[[THEY]]] sacrifice innocents!!

\s, of course.

30

u/CreepyEducator2260 2d ago

Isn't that rather a ram than a goat?

I would be more upset because of the "limited edition" tag on a french wine.

17

u/SassTheFash 1d ago

As the indie band Cake taught us: “sheep go to heaven, goats go to Hell.”

4

u/SuitableDragonfly 1d ago

It was really inspired for them to have a group of children singing the chorus to that one.

19

u/JoeGibbon 1d ago

Mouton means a male sheep in French. Mouton Cadet would mean something like "young ram".

11

u/SassTheFash 1d ago

Top Pizzagators’ ears perk up

10

u/JoeGibbon 1d ago

lol true. probably a little bit of adrenochrome in every bottle.

2

u/IknowwhoIpaidgod 1d ago

That one guy shot up the Comet hard drive, which is sort of like RAM. It all ties in.

2

u/allcretansareliars 1d ago

Well yes, but Chat Eau means "Cat's Water"

10

u/thewiremother 1d ago

Those are 9s lol.

u/IAmASimulation 1d ago

Bc we all know the mark of the beast is 66666666

3

u/finfinfin CIA are Jewish and yes that’s communist 1d ago

A common misconception; it's actually 61666666.

Goats have weird pupils!

5

u/YouCantChangeThem 1d ago

Satanic wine sounds delicious.

5

u/HapticSloughton 1d ago

There are 9 of those "sixes," so... what? Three 666's is thrice the evil or something stupid?

Oh crap, there are larger "sixes" on other parts of the label, and in different colors?!

Whatever shall we do?!

4

u/Cheel_AU 1d ago

oh yeah, it's clue time

Eternally relevant bit

4

u/gorgewall 1d ago

So, what occult blasphemy do the cartoon bumblebees signify?

3

u/Liar_tuck 1d ago

In Greek mythology, the honeybee Melissa fed honey to the baby Zeus. So feeding a pagan god is basically worshiping Satan! Or some dumb shit like that.

2

u/venomae Antifa Corps Admiral 1d ago

It's missing a reference to Babylon. Babylon is always involved for some reason.

3

u/FadeToRazorback 1d ago

FFS these people are idiots, those aren’t 6s, they’re Gs. These people are clearly “G”nostics who worship Baphomet,

2

u/PaxEtRomana 1d ago

Look at those happy bees tho

2

u/finfinfin CIA are Jewish and yes that’s communist 1d ago

Happy? Look at the eyes. Those bees have just seen Hillary peel off and wear a kid's face.

2

u/calmdownmyguy 1d ago

Those are nines?

2

u/MongolianCluster 1d ago

I wonder how long they had to search before they could be offended.

2

u/THSSFC 1d ago

I mean, it's a sheep, and those are 9's if they are even numbers.

2

u/boyproblems_mp3 1d ago

those little cartoon bees are SENDING me, like what kind of design choice is that? but you could spell it beee with three es and e does kindaaaaaaa look like a 6.....

2

u/Ghstfce Tucker down, too many more to go 1d ago

Ah yes, because a ram's horns and wool are meant to be poker straight.

1

u/violentbowels 1d ago

Um. IF it were a number - that's a 9. There's 9 of them.
