idk what that is dawg
It was a doomsday cult that believed they would ascend to a higher plane of existence and they committed mass suicide in 1997.
But unlike a lot of cults they were really non-violent and mostly law abiding and not obsessed with sex or trying to abuse each other. They actually believed that sexuality was a human-level thing so some of the men voluntarily castrated themselves (but they weren't forced into it).
Also in learning about them I learned that Hale-Bopp comet was only really discovered in 1995 by a couple of amateurs.
