Pastor’s Rapture Prediction Fuels Viral ‘RaptureTok’ Trend on TikTok
A South African pastor’s prophecy for Sept. 23–24 has sparked “RaptureTok,” with TikTok mixing faith, fear, and satire around end-times claims.
Social media influencer 'lilrotini' recently posted a video discussing preparations for an imagined 'rapture,' humorously advising viewers on what items to discard to ensure their spiritual ascension. In the video, which quickly gained traction, the creator suggests that certain high-fashion pieces, specifically mentioning Alexander McQueen's Fall/Winter 1996 collection and Olivia Theyskens' Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter 2001 collections, are 'demonic' and must be left outside by midnight. The satirical piece blends religious eschatology with commentary on fashion trends, prompting varied reactions from her audience.
