Twitter(X) headquarters is within walking distance to underground tunnels, dug by the Boring Company in Bastrop County, Texas. ~ Could Twitter(X) be used to keep everyone's thoughts on worldly things, while the other class is ready to scurry underground to hide from the coming catastrophe?

I was not familiar with that term, so asked AI.

Morlocks are fictional humanoid creatures created by H.G. Wells in his novel "The Time Machine." In the story, the Morlocks are a subterranean species that live beneath the surface of the Earth in the distant future. They are depicted as brutish and cannibalistic beings who prey on the Eloi, another group of human-like creatures that live above ground. The novel explores social class and the consequences of the division between the two species.

Eloi = My God

When Jesus was on the cross, he called out: "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" which translates to: "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" And then he gave up the Ghost, which we receive when we repent and turn to him for salvation.

So what was H.G. Wells thinking when he used the name Eloi?

Read the book or watch one of the movies. The Eloi are good angelic people while the Morlocks are demons.
