I just tried to login on your site. When I did, I got the standard Joomla error page with the message:
Error 0: Bad request token!

That error has started cropping up recently as Twitter made a change to their app settings in mid June. Please double-check your Twitter's app setting for "Callback URL". The URL should be your website followed by index.php, like:
https://yoursite.com/index.php
The Twitter setup guide was updated to include the index.php portion recently, which you may have missed.

If that doesn't work for you, please let us know as there are a few other possible causes of Bad Token, but that's the most common right now.

Finally, you mentioned a different error in your subject. If you're not seeing Bad Token, please describe, or include a screenshot of what your seeing and we'll gladly help investigate further.

Thanks,
Alex

It looks like you're missing the dash in your Callback URL. You have:

Callback URL
redpilled.com/index.php

Can you update that to:

red-pilled.com/index.php


Hope that gets you going!

You also show a URL with www in it. I'd recommend adding the following URL as a valid callback URL as well while you're there:

www.red-pilled.com/index.php
