Very interesting interview. He used to be in a cult, got out, earned a phd and studied cults. Talks about pimps being cult leaders, Donald and other stuff

@JimJones Eric talking s*** again.

"I don't understand and I miss you and I want you in my life."

what separates a cult from any other movement with a community, loyal supporters, and a captivating leader?

Is religion a cult?

we need someone with meta glasses to film these cult activities

Yes it is

it certainly can be

cant watch rn but did you ask him whats up with all these choctaw/cherokee black pretendians lately? they seem real cult-like

hope yal talked about pyramid schemes cus new age spam calls gettin a lil outta control

Which one does he recommend

should have interviewed me @op i grew up in the most hip hop affiliated cult fam

We actually did briefly talk about that cause he said he’s gotten people out of pyramid scheme scams and compared it to crypto

I actually have never heard of this

I think he would say the abuse of control and authority. Here's his model of how cults operate

theres validity to certain cases, idk y they mentioned it like all the claims are in bad faith.

Because there is zero validity to black people being indigenous to the americas. That s*** is cope. Any black people with indigenous ancestry are a mix of post-colonial black people and actual indigenous people with paleo-siberian ancestry. Those are not pretendians. Those are actual black indians.

Thats just the hoteps that are insecure about their roots and feel the need to concoct a superman origin story about our people. Its always an american nigga trying to talk about that s*** and you never hear africans that know their lineage doing any of that for obvious reasons. Essentially goes off life starting in Africa therefore black people were everywhere on the planet first.

Not all religions are cults but cults can involve religion

Yeah thats exactly who im talking about. The new gen hoteps/black hebrew israelites/insert cope here cult folks. There's a plague of them right now posting tiktok screen recordings as evidence of being indigenous lol

vid aint had nun to do w that, so again ur conflating everything about the trend - including the exception u just cited.

Yeah the vid ain't have nun to do with that because we're talking about two different things, short bus. I'm talking about the black people claiming they are the indigenous people of the Americas. Idk and idc what you're talking about.

then dont paint s*** w a broad brush and act like u not being disingenuous doing so. furthermore dont engage if u dont care and immediately resort to insulting people for providing nuance. goofball.
