As the world keeps turning, numerous extravagant ways of belief had become a lot more popular in recent years, and what I’ve just found shows how “eccentric” things can turn into
I don’t exactly know where all this began besides the fact that somehow involves various pseudoscientific and mathematic takes surrounding a general eschatology and a QAnon-esque shoehorn of revent events like the trump assassination attempt or the war on gaza, as well as some bizarre divine mysticism of computers and technology, and even time travel for some reason. All seems to be very inspired by things like the TempleOS case, where a schizophrenic was heavily controlled by 4chan into believing that God wanted him to build an Operating System as his third temple
As you scroll more into the accounts things just get more bizarre. The links of some of the persons behind all this fruitcake and some other related images are below, what do yall think?
I still love how conspiracies try to adapt their beliefs into modern “realistic” scenarios without trying to break their religious dogma but at the same time creating a new branch of it. Seeing all of this makes you wonder where in the bible states time traveling or computers as part of their prophecy
Looks like a diagram from the ‘kabbalah’ a type of Jewish mysticism. I worked with someone who loved to read from the kabbalah. I thought that was very strange, as she was ‘christian’ but seemed to endorse just about any type of religion. She was also maga, even though ‘what’s his name’…the incompetent one often mentioned the ‘kabal’ which he was suppose to take down.
I see Christian and far-right symbols. And lots of modern pseudoscientific babble. “Apply Kant’s transcendental system to the blockchain” … WTF does that even MEAN
This sort of hilarity reminds me of the last time weird psuedoscientific mysticism cross fertilised with far right politics. Courtesy of one Jörg Lanz von Liebenfels.
This individual had an interesting career to put it mildly. Liebenfels was a defrocked former Cistercian monk, who in 1905, launched a periodical known as The Ostara. This luridly, floridly, efflorescently turgid and slimy publication, whose essential view was racist and anti-Semitic, included some of the warped “theories” of Lanz von Liebenfels as described in much greater detail in his earlier work. That earlier work rejoices in the wonderfully Pythonesque title of:
Theozoology, Or The Account Of The Sodomite Apelings And The Divine Electron
Commentary was provided upon this weirdness on a website whose URL I’ve now lost, but whose text I had the sense to copy and save for posterity. Viz:
Now Lanz von Liebenfels was writing this in 1904, and he took his cues with respect to metaphysics from Theosophists such as Madame Blavatsky. Indeed, it was Blavatsky’s writings on “root races” that were incorporated in modified form into The Ostara. Moreover, Lanz von Liebenfels entertained some seriously insane ideas in his Theozoology, including the idea that the “Aryan” races were descended from “electric supermen” and that their destiny was to return to this state.
One of Hitler’s prime sources of inspiration was the above writings, of a man who advanced a pseudo-scientific theory arising from a warped biblical exegesis. The rest, tragically, became history.
Those who wish to track down copies of Theozoology for the purposes of weird amusement, will not be surprised to find that the work can be found online. Be warned,. it requires a very strange sense of humour to read this without dissolving into hernia-inducing giggles, because it is, quite frankly, cracked.
It appears that the propensity for reich wing loons attracted to mysticism, to generate weirdness, is very much alive and kicking.
Meanwhile, for those who want to risk their brain cells exposing them to the weirdness, a copy of this wacky publication can be downloaded from here:
The cover page alone lets you know what you’re in for - Crusader fetishism with a large helping of proto-Nazi religious lunacy thrown in for good measure, along with a truly bizarre mediaeval bestiary at the end.
There are people with bipolar disorder who get grandiose and become convinced that they have the ultimate answer for everything, and they draw pictures and diagrams that resemble the O.P.'s pictures (see below):
