How to Be the Fakest MAGA Evangelical Influencer on Earth (EXTREME SATIRE EDITION)
Step 1: Your faith must always have Wi-Fi signal strength.
God is real, but more importantly, God performs well in vertical video. If it didnât get posted, it didnât happen. If it didnât trend, it didnât matter. Prayer is now a content category between âmorning routineâ and ârage clip #3.â
Step 2: Scripture is a soundbite library, not a text.
You donât read the Bibleâyou deploy it. Like a quote grenade. No context, no surrounding verses, just enough fragments to fit neatly under a post that already had its conclusion decided three thumbnails ago.
Step 3: Your moral framework must be adjustable depending on audience temperature.
Compassion is extremely importantâuntil itâs inconvenient. Then you pivot to âtruth is under attack,â which is the Swiss Army knife of avoiding nuance, accountability, or reflection.
Step 4: Every issue must escalate immediately to civilization collapse.
There are no small problems. Only end-times previews. A parking ticket becomes âlawlessness.â A school board meeting becomes âspiritual warfare.â Someone cutting you off in traffic is basically Revelation.
Step 5: Jesus is your co-founder, but you are CEO.
He handles inspiration, you handle branding, merch drops, and strategic outrage scheduling. The Sermon on the Mount has been rebranded as âbeta messaging.â
Step 6: Grift aesthetics must remain spiritually aesthetic.
Neutral tones. Cross necklaces. A slightly weathered leather Bible that looks like it has trauma but has actually never been opened past page 12. Bonus points for studio lighting that makes repentance look like a podcast ad.
Step 7: Opponents are never just wrongâthey are metaphysical threats.
Disagreement is not disagreement. It is corruption. It is decay. It is literally the downfall of society, conveniently located inside whoever you replied to on Twitter that morning.
Step 8: Accountability is spiritual persecution when applied to you.
If questioned, immediately switch to:
* âIâm being attacked for my beliefsâ
* âTheyâre trying to silence faithâ
* âThis is exactly what they did to prophets in the Bibleâ
Historical accuracy optional.
Step 9: Forgiveness is abundant, but strategically distributed.
You can forgive absolutely anyoneâexcept critics, journalists, ex-followers, fact-checkers, or people who remember your past statements. Those are permanently outside grace coverage.
Step 10: The audience is not a congregationâitâs a scoreboard.
Engagement equals anointing. Likes are blessings. Shares are revival. Comment sections are spiritual battlegrounds where nuance goes to die instantly and publicly.
Step 11: Always end with urgency, even when nothing is happening.
âIf you know, you know.â
âThings are about to change.â
âPrepare accordingly.â
(Preparation usually involves subscribing.)
Step 12: Above all, maintain the illusion of permanent siege.
Even when winning, you are losing. Even when comfortable, you are under attack. Even when influential, you are silenced. Especially when you are trending.
Because nothing says spiritual authority like never, ever being at peace.
