The Indignant Danger

By Nathan Payne | pablosmoglives | 14 Jun 2025


“Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all
the people round about, when they shall be in the siege
both against Judah and against Jerusalem.”
Zechariah 12:2

 

I am pleased to announce that Pablo Smog has teamed up with a popular board game company to create a new weapons-grade party game.  In spite of Western sanctions on humility, humor, and satire, "The Indignant Danger" is expected to hit stores like a Sarmat missile before the end of the day.  The rules of "The Indignant Danger" are easy:

Make a list of everything you're tired of.

The first person to get to "everything,"

Wins.

The purpose of the game is to warn people about indulging in too much indignation while deciding which bean dip to boycott first, Kosher, or Halal?  Anyone who draws the Greta Thunberg card has to go straight to indignation jail, where they will be forced to watch videos of the October 7th massacre until they have been deprogrammed.  If you refuse to watch the videos, you will get a free flight to Stockholm, where you can sing Palestinian hymns written by a guy who pretends to agree with you in the hopes that someday you will sleep with him, in a Swedish-Islamic no-go zone to your indignant heart's delight.

"The Indignant Danger" has been carefully designed by the gaming engineers at Pablo Smog to show people how powerful their indignation isn't, and how much difference it won't make on the incendiary stage of last-days world events.  In fact, the indignation is a trap.  The self-righteous insistence that the world is not a spiderweb, is itself a spiderweb in which Satan traps the small, flying insects of human ambition and desire.  Anyone who refuses to believe that spiders exist, will inevitably become trapped.  To rage against the spiderweb has no effect on the existence of the spiderweb,

At all.

 

“And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone
for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall
be cut in pieces, though all the people of the
earth be gathered together against it.”
Zechariah 12:3

 

Me at Pablo Smog see no need for another political or prophetic take on the events unfolding in the Middle East.  Thoughts and observations of that kind can easily be found, everywhere.  What I don't see, is a warning against the indignation a purely secular, political view will inevitably lead to.  Because brains are not a virtue, even otherwise-insightful and intelligent people such as Andrew Napolitano, Col. Douglas MacGregor, and the team at Redacted are not immune from the spiderweb of incredulous indignation that will lead them nowhere, at best.  As brilliant as you are, Col. MacGregor, as intelligent, thoughtful, and well-considered the conversation in the video above may be, Iran did not just have its "Pearl Harbor."  Some guy without an internet connection and no knowledge of the Holocaust prophesied that Jerusalem would become "a burdensome stone for all people," thousands of years ago.  Because GOD sent the prophetic email, there is no way to avoid it.  You can argue with it, disagree with it, and rage against it until you get to indignation jail (a.k.a. "hell") with Adolf Hitler and the leader of the IRGC, if you want,

Or you can play "The Indignant Danger" to win, and realize that in fact it isn't "millions" that could die, as you warn, but rather, it is

Billions, who

Will die; it is billions who

Will be cut in pieces by the burdensome stone,

Though all the people of the earth be gathered against it.

Whether we like it, believe it, 

Or not.

If you play "The Indignant Danger" the way it is intended to be played, by the time you get to the end of the game, you won't even see the little religious symbols clamoring for your attention on the bean dip.  You will stand at the crossroads of being tired of everything and having nothing to lose, and beg for forgiveness from a patient and righteous God above.  The emails on Zechariah's Etch-a-Sketch clearly state that the entire world will turn against Israel in the last days.  If it isn't true, you have nothing to worry about (except Sharia Law and Communism).

But if it is true...

Now is as good a time as any

To take the hint and run with it.

Jews included.  After all, according to the holy Etch-a-Sketch, "my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved." (Romans 10:1)

 

“If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and
shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised
him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
Romans 10:9

 

The only reason to become a Christian is because Christianity is true.  Tradition, family, and culture don't have anything to do with it.  Lift the sanctions on humility from your heart and mind today, and consider the possibility that an all-powerful God (if He, She, or It exists) isn't asking for your permission, or constrained to the parameters of worldly desire.  Seek and ye shall find (Matthew 7:7).  Which doesn't mean you can't throw away what you find.  Or bury it.

Thanks for listening.
