There are a lot of churches that could be considered cults. People are too stupid to realize that they money you're tithing every week is going to pay for the head pastor's BMW and million dollar home.



yep, I am completely suspicious of ANY of the mega churches that seem to be all the rage

I have often thought being a cult leader could be lucrative.

I submit Homebrew by 311:

Fourth of July with Lucy in sky
I remember pine trees and the coat of many colors
I was nineteen, I'd do anything
shite like that now scares me, but I'd like to do it again

I remember those days. I was in a Catholic student organization for a while until I met my wife. It all felt so fun, and for the right girl, man...you'd do anything. I knew it wasn't me, but it was a role I was playing. As a young dumb kid...yes I can see how people get into it...and ankle deep before they realize what it really is. I do miss those days. Makes no sense, and perfect sense at the same time.

I am right now. We all are. Here. In this cult.

I’m not a LSU fan, nor have I ever stepped foot in the state of Louisiana. And yet here I am.

Really makes me think.

Roughly half of America has already been. We call it modern liberalism.

Ok this is weird. I read the title of your post before even clicking on it.. and jokingly said to myself, "I'd join a cult if it was like a starvation weight loss cult"

If you answer no, then the answer is yes.

We are all subject to social conditioning. There are some psychological disorders that would immunize you.

I actually remember that in the 90s. From what I remember it was just a normal weight watchers type diet with a bit of prayer thrown in for the religious folks. I had friends who participated. No one starved

Do you think you could ever be brainwashed into something similar to this or WACO, Heaven's Gate, etc?


Yes

Social Media is the biggest brainwasher so far

But seeing how millions reacted to covid, I'm certain indoctrinating people into a cult isn't as hard as I would have expected 4 years ago.



COVID did it for me. I lost a lot of faith in humanity over the last several years.
