              Brawndo’s got electrolytes. It’s what plants crave.

              P.E.Z. refers to a nazi propaganda piece about a cabal of satanic, pedophilic, and cannibalistic Jews who secretly ruled the world or were plotting to take over the world and subjugate every non-Jew.

              It was a complete fabrication and total lunacy, obviously. But the nazis used it to instill fear and mistrust of the Jews, blame them for society’s problems, and attempt to justify the discrimination, segregation, and eventual holocaust.

              And yet… less than a century later we have the Likud, Epstein, Israel bombing almost all of their neighbors to destabilize the region under some sort of eschatological delusions and ethno-supremacist delusions, and with a standing policy to nuke the entire planet if their total defeat is ever imminent.

              The “torment nexus” refers to a trope where a guy was talking about some tech bros who invented the torment nexus from the science fiction novel titled “don’t create the torment nexus”…

                I was familiar with torment nexus and the nazi lies, but PEZ threw me. Thank you for the exoosition. It truly is mind boggling that Israel has become what the Nazis accused the Jews of being.

                  It stands for something, but I’m afraid if I type it out I might get on a list. The first word is protocols, the middle word is what you call people who are older than you, and I think you can guess the z…
