>As someone who never uses twitter unless someone links it from reddit or here, what are the 1000s of replies with the weird chars[0]?

I only saw one but apparently many have already been removed. According to Google Translate[0], the text is 'Amharic': "ኃጢአተኛ ነፍስህ ከመዳን በላይ ናት እናም ሰላምን ወይም ሥቃይን አታውቅም ፣ የንስሐ ቅዝቃዜ ብቻ አብቅቷል ፣ ምክንያቱም ኃጢአቶችህ ከማንኛውም ተልእኮ የላቀ ስለሆነ ፣ መጨረሻው ቀርቧል ፣ የኃጢአት መርከቦች"

translates to: "Your sinful soul is beyond salvation and you do not know peace or pain, only the cold of repentance is over, because your sins are greater than any mission, the end is near, the ships of sin"

Apparently not a get-well card.

It’s people writing stuff in Amharic, an Ethiopian language, because they think it looks sinister and “cursed”. It’s not great because Amharic is an actual language used by millions of people ):

Some new zalgo type thing... If you click "translate" it's all some kind of apocalyptic texts

It's the latest TikTok meme.

Writing curses and hexes against Donald Trump in Ahramaic is the new random K-Pop gifs.

It may also be bots. Twitter is jam-packed with bots (probably Chinese and Russian run) that push the Democrats and Republicans to fight each other. It's an interesting problem.

In some cases they create obvious bots that make each side go "Aha! See their supporters are all bots!"

Edit: Language ID fail. See below.

they leaked Azerbaijan Navy details, so seems to be an online-ish conflict as well: https://cybernews.com/news/nagorno-karabakh-war-azeri-navy-d...

Thats Aramaic and NOT Armenian

Google Translate says Amharic (Ethiopian)? But not Armenian, so my bad, seems to be run of the mill religious doomsday prophecying.
