12 The meta-symbolic origin of “33”? - Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on its heads. Its tail swept a third of the stars {33%} out of the sky and flung them to the earth.

Best explanation I’ve seen, those who associate themselves with 33 are associating themselves with the 1/3 who fell from Heaven’s grace.

Anyone else seen a good explanation behind this obsession?
It could be, it could also be some kind of mockery of the Lord being 33 years old at His death and resurrection. Something about attaining something I'm sure.
Huh... well considering {they} love
1)mocking/inverting what’s holy (the cross, etc)
2)multi-layered symbolic imagery
You’re probably onto something as well
Look into the 33rd parallel...The sacrificial line.
In the Book of Enoch, the place where the Watcher class of fallen angels descended to Earth, Mount Hermon, is also located on Parallel 33.
