Numerology

They are so unhinged that the doorknob has melted to the floor.

It also seeps into every other batshit conspiracy theory eventually. It's huge in QAnon. If you see a number, pack your bags, it's jover.

1+1 = 2

Do you know what else there were two of? The twin towers. How many planes hit the twin towers? Exactly two. How many times has my wife left me? Only once, but one day I will get the kids back. Fuck you judge McNally

10 digits, infinite bullshit

you think there are sectarian conflicts between like arabic numerals, babylonian base 12, i ching base 2, hindu numbers, roman numerals, etc?

"No it isn't 2 towers, they are two 1's so it's actually 3 in base 2!!"

"Nuh-uh, it's a signed bit so it's negative 1"

"You fools! they are two I's therefore it is II or 2!"

"11 two 1's make 11!!1!"

or something like that i think
