General phrase suggesting that people are behaving in a cult-like way, in a delusion, nearly always said humorously, not entirely seriously, despite the phrase's ghastly origin.
Had Jim Jones used Absolut or Pepsi, they would now be the code words for cult-like reverence, instead.
When said in reference to Apple, it's a variation of Steve Job's "Reality distortion field" (RDF)
