Aliyites are those who follow AL-'Aliyiyyah, a Sufi movement within Zaydi Shia Islam which often incorporates elements of religious syncretism, seemingly influenced by Zoroastrianism, Yoruba African religions, and Buddhism.
Aliyite Muslims believe Imam Ali shares an essence with Jesus Christ, and that the two religious figures shared a common soul of God. Many Aliyites also believe in Orisha Ogun, and that he was one with Imam Ali.

Lots of Sweetgum Kriyul people, especially ethnic Qarsherskiyans, are Aliyites.

Aliyites are part of AL-'Aliyiyyah (Arabic: العليئية), a Sufi movement within Zaydi Shia Islam, which considers the possibility of Zarathustra and the Buddha being prophets whose message may have been corrupted over time, and many of it's followers believe in Orishas from West African religions, believing they were Islamic religious figures, and not deities. Many Aliyites believe Orisha Ogun is one with Imam Ali Ibn Abi Talib and that Imam Ali and Jesus Christ share a common essence which is the Soul of God (روح الله).
My Aliyite friend said Orisha Ogun is not a reincarnation of Imam Ali, but a continuation of the life of the first Imam, who is the first and the last (أول و أخر).

The Aliyite Tariqa is a Sufi order within Zaydi Shia Islam that has around one million followers around the world. The Ethnic Qarsherskiyan Tribe in Eastern North America are heavily influenced by Aliyite beliefs, and many of the Ethnic Qarsherskiyans are Aliyites. Many Aliyites believe that Orisha Ogun is one with Imam Ali and that Imam Ali was a continuation of the life of Jesus Christ, and that Jesus is one with Orisha Obatala or Obatallah. These Aliyites also believe the Orishas of the Ifa religion were real and were actually angels, Imams, and prophets whose messages were distorted and who were falsely deified overtime by misguided people.
Many Aliyites believe Imam Ali came to North America either with West African explorers from the Mali Empire or being brought by the angels including angel Jibreel/Gabriel. These Aliyites believe that Imam Ali first stepped foot in North America on a hill that had a Native American encampment on top of it, and Imam Ali gave them dawah, and the sacred Carolina Parakeets (Conuropsis carolinensis) copied Imam Ali's sermons and flew around repeating them, spreading Islam to many Native American tribes.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
