Quote
It’s well-established that the oxygen of all cultic mechanisms is deception.
[matthewremski.com]
An abuser, dominator, or high-demand group deceives the public and its members about its purpose and methods.
The falsehood might look progressive, virtuous, on the right side of history, and spiritually liberating. Both leaders and members can truly believe it. The falsehood can appeal to their deepest values and motivate their unique passions and skills. That’s what the falsehood wants: to co-opt and redirect passion and skill.
