The Crusader’s Manifesto

"Against the False Saints and the Golden Calf of Power"(Recovered document, 2023 – classified Vought Internal Threat Index Level 9)

I. The Age of Idols

Once, men built temples of stone. Now they build them of glass and screens.The idols are no longer carved in marble, but stitched in flesh by the hand of science.The name of their god is Vought - the merchant of miracles, the peddler of false grace.

They sell divinity by the vial. They baptize infants in chemicals and call them chosen.They crown their creations "heroes," yet their deeds are written in the blood of the innocent.The people bow, not from faith, but from hunger - hunger for protection, for spectacle, for lies that taste like hope.

II. The Unholy Covenant

The Supes are not children of God.They are forgeries - counterfeit angels branded with corporate sigils.They wear crosses around their necks and cameras on their chests.Their miracles are marketing. Their commandments are contracts.

I, who once stood among them, have seen their rot.I have watched the righteous kneel before men who burn cities and smile for cameras.I have seen Homelander worshipped as a savior while he drinks the tears of the dying.And I remained silent - thinking that perhaps one day, light could redeem them.That silence was my sin.

III. The Revelation

In my silence, I heard the whisper of Truth.It was not the voice of Heaven - it was the scream of the damned.They cried out: "Judge them."

The Lord did not send thunder or flood.He sent me.He took from me comfort, fame, and fellowship - and in their place, He gave me a sword.

I am not the first Crusader.But I am the last one with faith enough to burn paradise to the ground if it is built on a lie.

IV. The Gospel of Fire

Let the record show: this war is not against man, but against mockery.Every false hero who kneels before Vought kneels before the Beast.Every priest who blesses their actions spits on the Cross.

Therefore, I declare Holy War upon:

The Seven and all their works.

The scientists of Compound V, who dared to usurp the Creator's hand.

The media apostles who turn slaughter into scripture.

The faithful who know and do nothing.

No man or woman shall be harmed without cause - but those who have sold their souls shall be purged.Mercy is reserved for the repentant.Justice is reserved for all.

V. The Creed of the Blade

I believe not in the God of Vought, but in the God of consequence.I believe every miracle built on lies must crumble.I believe in the cleansing flame, the sword that divides truth from deceit.I believe salvation is not found in worship, but in reckoning.

If you read this and feel anger - good.If you feel fear - better.If you feel conviction - then your war has already begun.

For every idol that falls, a man will remember how to stand.For every "hero" who dies, a human soul is freed.

Let the false angels tremble.For I walk not in shadow, but in wrath.And wrath is holy.
