Looks like The Atlantic realized it had lost its marbles, and pulled this? I now get a 404, not only from the HN link, but also from the link on their site which still has the thumbnail of this propaganda piece:

(If anybody has a cache, I'm mildly curious to see it...)

You can still see the meat of the article via skeletonjelly's google cache link, but I gather the fun was in the comments. The 'article' reads like a typical cult/church promotional flyer...

"Temporarily", what absolute bootlicks they are.

Gives them the opportunity to re-up the article once the internet forgets.
