“The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist.”
— Charles Baudelaire (or maybe just Keyser Söze)
Let’s get surgical with this.
If I were the Devil in 2025, I wouldn’t need pitchforks or fire. I wouldn’t come with horns.
I’d come with comfort. WiFi. Dopamine hits.
I’d wear a tailored suit, speak fluent algorithm, and smile through every notification.
Here’s how I’d dismantle men—quietly, strategically, and completely.
“If I can’t make them evil, I’ll make them entertained.”
Forget sin. All I need is your attention.
Scroll. Click. Repeat.
By the time you realize you’ve been entertained into paralysis, it’s too late.
🧠 Example: The average user spends nearly 2 hours a day on TikTok. Multiply that by a year… that’s 30 full days of thumb movement and mental noise.
No growth. No mission. Just content.
“If they don’t know what’s real, they’ll believe anything.”
Truth used to be a foundation. Now it’s a buffet.
Pick your “truth.” Argue it. Die on it. Doesn’t matter if it’s real—only if it gets likes.
🔍 Example: Deepfakes are so good now, you can’t trust video proof.
AI-generated news. Fake experts. Fabricated facts.
The endgame? Nobody trusts anything—so they trust no one.
“If I break the home, I break the man.”
Want to destroy generations?
Erase fatherhood. Replace purpose with pleasure.
Mock marriage. Glorify hookup culture. Sell selfishness as freedom.
📉 Example: In parts of the U.S., father absence rates exceed 70%.
The results? More crime, more poverty, more brokenness.
And it keeps cycling.
“If they don’t know who they are, I’ll sell them who to be.”
Brand over being. Image over character.
Make them insecure. Then sell them 10,000 ways to “fix” it.
🪞 Example: Kids are building personal brands before they build values.
You’re not a person—you’re a profile.
More worried about lighting than legacy.
“Let them build empires with no soul.”
Raise kings with no code.
Applaud success, ignore sacrifice.
Make ambition a god, and integrity a joke.
🏢 Example: Billionaires profiting from surveillance tech.
CEO bonuses while workers get laid off.
Talent with no moral compass is just destruction with a nicer logo.
“If nothing is sacred, anything is allowed.”
Mock faith. Erase meaning. Call morality outdated.
Replace reverence with relevance.
🙏 Example: Church attendance is down. Depression is up.
We worship our screens more than anything spiritual.
And when life feels empty, we call it “freedom.”
“Give them everything—except purpose.”
Don’t scare them. Sedate them.
Keep them so distracted, so well-fed, and so comfortable…
that they never ask why they’re even here.
📦 Example: Amazon delivers tomorrow. Netflix streams endlessly.
Porn, pizza, and Prime—comfort on demand.
But comfort without meaning? That’s a silent killer.
If I were the Devil, I wouldn’t need to possess you.
I’d just need you numb, busy, and comfortable enough to forget who you are.
But you’re not blind.
You’re not broken.
You’re just buried beneath all the noise.
So dig out.
Unplug.
Rise up.
Because the Devil’s not afraid of weak men.
He’s afraid of one who wakes up with a mission.
IQ isn’t here to motivate. We’re here to wake you up.
