Son_of_dad,

Sucks for Kool aid cause they actually drank flavor aid, not Kool aid

That can’t be Joanestown, there are not enough kids in the picture

chiliedogg,

And it was Flavor-Aid. I don’t know how they expected to spend the money they saved buying the cheap shit.

RememberTheApollo_,

Was this drawn by AI? Some weird shit happening with those bodies.

ouRKaoS,

Mass amounts of AI weirdness going on there…

Don’t zoom in if you want to sleep anytime soon.

I absolutely hate the idea of AI replacing working artists, but the meme possibilities are incredible https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/6ec4a6ab-8797-4a98-af46-ada09100cb75.jpeg

Not soon enough, if he was there an hour earlier a big accident could have been avoided

Tikiporch,

Why is the house also saying “Oh Yea-aaaaa!” …?

Because it’s AI generated. Look at the heads/faces of the people.

LemmyKnowsBest,

My favorite is the guy with no torso or head, just legs coming out both ends

niktemadur,

It’s the Guyana Punch Man!

Timecircleline,

It was Flavor-Ade

I am absolute sure this image is a clear reference to Mass Suicide at Jonestown

FlyingSquid,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

And you would be correct.

qbus,

That was Flavor aid not Kool-Aid

yannic,

Also, it was grape flavour, not cherry flavour Flavor Aid.

LemmyKnowsBest,

jeez what a terrible way to go. Off-brand punch and they chose the worst flavor. Oh yeah and it was laced with deadly poison too

DragonTypeWyvern,

Imagine being in a suicide cult and they try to save money on the suicide punch

SOB_Van_Owen,

Maybe everyone should listen to the Jonestown tape at some point. It’s truly horrible, but may provide some inoculation against demagoguery.

dudinax,

Nah, our charismatic dirtbag is different.

frostysauce,

It is absolutely terrifying.

Son_of_dad,

They were told the poison was painless so they gave it to the kids first. The tapes show that the kids were in agony and the parents were freaking out, to the point where many wanted to leave and not take the poison but they were forced to at gunpoint

mydoomlessaccount,

Oh! And be sure not to forget the part where Jim Jones then proceeded to turn his gun on himself and take the quick death instead of suffering the way he forced everyone else to.

Funny how often monsters turn out to be cowards as well. History rhymes, I guess.

pb42184,

According to South Park - Jared Has Aides, it’s 22.3 years.

You’re fine

Jim Jones and I both went to Indiana University (I also grew up in that university’s town, Bloomington), and now I live in Terre Haute, Indiana, which has the federal prison where Timothy McVeigh was executed and a school for “troubled” teens that Charles Manson once got sent to.

I can’t help it if mass murder surrounds me, right?

pb42184,

I see insufficient evidence that you are in fact the harbinger of death and destruction by your mere presence

FlyingSquid,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I’m soaking it all up slowly and it will turn into a burst of serial killing within a decade or so.

Got_Bent,

Hey man, when the serial killing manifests itself just remember I’ll always make you a kick-ass bloody Mary and I’ll never ask you to play Scrabble.

FlyingSquid,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

As long as it isn’t Presidential Scrabble.

pb42184,

In that case always remember I love and support you. Shoot the other guy not me :)

FlyingSquid,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I like you. I’m going to kill you last.

Sam_Bass,

Not that many keeping up with the Jonestown these days

UltraMagnus0001,

DON’T DRINK IT!

Here’s a related song: Hungover in Jonestown by Amigo the Devil (spotify)

grrgyle,

Too soon

inset,

bro, it’s never too soon

MedicPigBabySaver,

Would be great if there were a huge MAGA flavor-aid rally.

FlyingSquid,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

At this point, I wouldn’t put it past Trump to tell them all to kill themselves if he gets found guilty at his trials.

db2,

At least something would improve this stupid timeline then.

sturlabragason,

Dark

unreasonabro,

The comeuppance of the KKK should be dark. it ain’t gonna be light, put it that way

PhlubbaDubba,

Can you prosecute someone for mass autocide?

Like is it suicide if an entire cultural demographic all do it together because they just spite the world for expecting them to know shame that much?

Maybe when he dies they'll drink the Kool aid to join him.

Diplomjodler3,

Don’t threaten me with a good time.
