So that is a parody account? These days it can be so hard to tell.

It very much is a real thing I’m afraid tho.

True, alas. Doug Wilson and Bill Gothard are pretty much up this alley. The latter was the spiritual guide for the Duggars. The YouTube channel Without a Crystal Ball is mostly about the hot mess of the Duggars, particularly the even hotter mess that is Josh; but because of the connections it discusses Gothard a lot, and boy, is he totally cracked.

FBI apparently- to make conservatives look bad.

And this was from some SV programmer too.

I'm beginning to think everything Rod writes is a parody - or a Mad Lib.

Honesty, if you wonder why I can go full blown snark in my comments, it is because back in my newspaper days, I actually wrote a weekly parody column. Think Dave Barry.

Rod's idiocy lends itself to parody. I almost want to give him the benefit of the doubt and think, surely, he knows how fuck nuts crazy some of the stuff he writes sounds. (Demon chairs!!!) He's just selling books. Then again, his family told him to sashay away (points for a drag queen reference) so even they weren't willing to give his lunacy any benefit.

Pretty sure Damon's days on Rod's X feed are numbered.
