    I just hope none of these people are stupid enoigh to commit mass suicide with their families… I’ve seen some tik toks of Karens talking about how they did not send their kids to school today… I really hope none of them harms their kids.

      That one guy sold his car, saying he wouldn’t need it in heaven.

      Like, OK, this is crazy, but they often have a certain internal logic going. I don’t get this one. You don’t need the car (presumably), but you don’t need the money, either. Why bother?

      If they actually believe that bullshit, chances are pretty good they’re already harming their kids psychologically at the very least.

      I’ve heard that in some places Facebook marketplace is really busy as they’re dumping all physical possessions.
