Daniel Chase13 said:People vote for Eric Adams because he controls the purse strings, whereas the folks in Duspara's circle chose him specifically because they know him personally—they trust him because they've seen who he is behind closed doors.

But look, just be real with me—give me the actual details. How did you meet Elvis Presley? Did you sit down for a quiet drink and have a long talk? What were the circumstances, how long has your acquaintance lasted, and was it a totally calm, civil conversation or something else? Come on, just be honest.

Do you actually know that firsthand, or are you just wishing it were true? You’re looking at Elvis Presley through rose-colored glasses.

Daniel Chase13 said:Or maybe not.

It’s entirely possible that one of you "haters" is actually Elvis himself—just running a little social experiment or looking for a bit of fun by playing out how his critics react, pretending to be against him just to see what happens.

We've seen plenty of people on forums like this play both sides—acting like they represent one viewpoint when, in reality, they're just pushing the exact opposite side of the fence.

But, for those of you who seem to be struggling to keep up or perhaps aren't reading too closely, I don't mind repeating myself for the hundredth time: I am not Elvis. If you need any more proof than that, just look at the fact that I'm not one of those flat-earthers.

Man, you’d turn into a Flat Earther yourself if it meant sticking up for Elvis Presley.

Daniel Chase13 said:The new Elvis-esque perspective—coming right off the heels of his successful run with Penguin Random House—on the teacher strikes. https://www.facebook.com/duspara.elv...00005063086780

So, what, Elvis Presley would hand out $15,000 raises to any teacher willing to put a cross in their classroom, start every period with prayer, and toss science out the window as a foundation for education? Forgive my language, folks, but HOLY SHIT. He’d turn America into some kind of religious caliphate.

Look at this guy. In your nearly 200 posts on this subforum, you've spent your whole time cowardly dodging every single direct question, and now you're demanding answers from me?

Amy Brown8 said:Honestly though, those presentations of his are pretty wild. You never know when or where he’s going to strike; the suspense is real. Just when he starts explaining something—he gives this look, right?—and then asks a question that makes you second-guess everything all over again. Is he actually searching for God, or is there something else going on? Who knows!

He’s just chasing a paycheck and some clout. It’s pretty straightforward if you ask me. These "deep convictions" he claims to have? They're just a way to fleece the naive. I can't quite wrap my head around what drives Daniel Chase13, though—what keeps him so obsessed with passionately preaching Elvis Presley's sermons. Is it just the money? Does he just crave the spotlight and the attention of the masses? Or maybe he's just desperate for some one-on-one attention from Elvis Presley himself? There are so many possibilities, but which one is the truth?

It’s all about Elvis Presley, isn't it? You've really managed to pull the wool over our eyes. 👍

But seriously, Elvis Presley, enough with the role-playing. It’s getting a bit old.
Man, one minute you're acting like Charles Gonzalez19, then you're channeling Roboute Guilliman, and next thing we know, you're mimicking wearyowl29.

Look, I get it—you had your fun—but can we please just have you be yourself for once? 🙂

It’s honestly hilarious watching this whole topic spin in circles when it’s really just a clever way for you to brag about yourself.

Keep it coming, though! As long as we have moderators like you running threads that are basically just love letters to Elvis Presley, I'm entertained.

Nice one, Duspara.
You certainly have a knack for stepping into your opponents' shoes.
You managed to pull the wool over our eyes quite effectively.
Honestly, who would have guessed you were hiding behind wearyowl29, Charles Gonzalez19, and Roboute Guilliman? Well, some of us see right through it. Kudos to you—you definitely know how to keep the spotlight on yourself. 👍

Well, now we know. I have to hand it to you—you certainly have a knack for making sure all eyes are on you.👍

Hey, wearyowl29... Presley. You certainly know how to poke fun at yourself. 👍

Anyway, you shared some pretty interesting thoughts over here https://www.facebook.com/duspara.elv...00005063086780

Are you planning on filming a new video today?

Now that you've gone public, you can just post them all yourself—I don't have to do it for you anymore.

And then there's me, just being a little too much "Catholicism" (twice, obviously).

Elvis, are you planning on filming a new video today, or what? What's the topic of the day?

Are you going to keep playing pretend—stepping into your opponents' shoes just to mess with us—or are you finally going to start posting under your own name?

But hey, now that you've unmasked yourself, you can set them up yourself. You don't need me to do it for you.

This thread should have been cleared out ages ago.

But honestly, there isn't a single sane person here capable of deleting this mess from Elvis's feed.

Anyway, enough about the PDF. 👎

Elvis Presley is getting ready to drop a new book centered heavily on biblical themes.

The title will likely be "Sparrow," inspired by one of Jesus' parables.

Essentially, the whole thing is going to focus on God's care and divine providence.

Honestly, you’ve gotta be some kind of genius to write an entire book about absolutely nothing, and even more of a sucker to actually pay money for it. 🤣

If I’m reading this right, Presley is actually writing this book in the style of a novel.

Well, regardless of how you look at it, it seems like Elvis Presley was such a successful seller that he had to go back and reissue almost everything. Given that his books were available everywhere—from newsstands and post offices to major bookstores—and people were even ordering them directly from him, he must have moved a staggering number of copies by American standards.

To keep up with the demand from newsstands, post offices, and retail shops—not to mention his own direct sales—a single print run would need to be at least 5,000 to 6,000 copies. And since Elvis Presley is already working on third or even fourth editions for some of his titles (he’s currently announcing a third printing of 'Hail Mary,' which is likely his best-seller, meaning he probably sold at least 10,000 copies, if not more), those are truly impressive numbers for this market.

When you consider that every single copy is likely read by at least two or three different people—sometimes even more—it really explains why he has around 5,000 friends on Facebook. It makes sense; he has a massive readership for our scale here.

Way to go, Elvis.

Yeah, having 5,000 Facebook friends is definitely a major life milestone right there.

Honestly, those 5,000 Facebook connections are the least interesting part of this whole thing.

The reality is—whether we like him or not—Elvis Presley has sold tens of thousands of books right here in America, which is something very few people in this country can actually claim to have done.

Regardless of whether anyone agrees with his views, the man has demonstrated a level of independent publishing grit and financial savvy that none of his harshest critics could ever hope to match.

When you look at pure entrepreneurial drive and business success, compared to Elvis Presley, his biggest detractors just look like total amateurs—people who couldn't pull off even a fraction of what he has accomplished in their lives.
