Twitter used to have big name advertisers selling like toothpaste and diapers. Now it's got fucking doomsday cults.

Twitter @GodSaidManSaid: The end has arrived.  The Altar of Sacrifice has been built.  A functioning Third Temple could be ready in as little as six months.  There is one last thing required: A red heifer.  Israel has five ready to go.  The end has arrived.  Are you prepared for departure?

I remember A This America Life about a guy from TX funding genetic engineering to have the purple heifer or whatever it is born in Isreal to spark the end times and everyone involved was so cheerful about it. Just as deranged as possible.

just realized by posting the craziest shit, one could whip up a sizable cult pretty quickly over there. might be fun? might be profitable?

Easy for you to say, who lives near one of the two functioning temples...

I had half a mind to warn some advertisers they were being posted under a snuff film the other day, but as I scrolled I realized none of them would even care.

Not enough to try and keep users emotionally short circuited through blue checks and ownership. Need to add an extra layer for that je ne sais quoi

This is like a bad spy movie. The red heifer is on the ground. Repeat, the red heifer is on the ground!
