What Exactly Was Cher Going for with This Hitler Tweet?

Usually when people fulfill the structural imperatives of Godwin’s Law, they are doing so either to throw a smoke bomb over a bad argument or merely to draw attention to themselves. (See Weber, Randy.)

But I got nothing on this one:

I THINK, HITLER,GOEBBELS,GORING,HIMMLER,& HESS ARE LIVING IN ICLOUD….

Judging from the replies, the prime suspect is LSD. However her Twitter bio appears to have been composed with the same stream-of-consciousness brio:

Stand & B Counted or Sit & B Nothing. Don’t Litter,Chew Gum,Walk Past Homeless PPL w/out Smile.DOESNT MATTER in 5 yrs IT DOESNT MATTER THERE’S ONLY LOVE&FEAR

It may not matter in 5 yrs, but Hitler Tweets are forever.
