We discuss how ideas can become something individuals "are" rather than something they "use," leading to concerns about cult psychology and mind control. The discussion highlights the dangers of indoctrination and the power of group consensus in shaping human behavior. 🧐 This is part one of an ongoing series exploring all the different types of cults! In part one, we explore the top 2 most dangerous cult types and we do a brief dive into the FLDS Mormon cults & Heaven's Gate.
