This all reminds me of an article I read recently in The Guardian, about women who allege they were raped at an ashram in Thailand.
[www.theguardian.com]
The women complained that the ashram was like a kind of cult, where male staff members preyed on unsuspecting women. The guru there - a guy named Narcis Tarcau, used some kind of brainwashing and coercion to allegedly sexually assault women.
The victims talked of being "under his spell" and that he broke down women psychologically over time, eroding their self-esteem.
When complaints were raised, they were dismissed as "gossip" and "being dramatic". Which is really interesting, because when I have raised concerns about Mooji online, my concerns have been dismissed using the exact same words! 'Gossip' and 'being dramatic'. It kind of makes me wonder...
It's like a manipulative form of victim-blaming.
When a group dismissed very serious allegations as 'gossip', I think it means something is up.
