The human brain is easily tricked and certain individuals known how to do so on a mass scale. Look at this website. We know it's a horrid waste of time but we haven't quit.

because then they can get basically anything they want, from the desperate men who join cults. and/or they have the hots for the powerful leaders.

women, generally, seem more happy to just exist than do things. including just going along with their boyfriends/husbands.

you'd think liberal/progressive/activist groups are women shite, but there's a reason they have women's groups, to get women involved.

god what even are females in your head? You honestly see everything they do as some Machiavellian rational behavior? Even when its obviously self-destructive like in this case?

the only people I've ever known who actually joined a cult (2) were short, unmarketable men

Money, power, sex, a sense of belonging, a purpose in life. Cults are based

cults don't give you any of that shit. the first thing they do is take all your money, tell you what to wear and do, and put controls on when and how you're allowed to have sex. cults usually have sex-segregated housing and the cult leader usually fucks all the women. joining a cult is fundamentally submissive

again though, that's answering the question.

look, we get it: you're a cult expert. post interesting shit instead of just telling people they're wrong.

I know a guy who joined the Yellow Deli cult. They took his phone and all his shit on day 1. He had to steal money out of the register over the course of several weeks and save it up so he could buy a prepaid phone and call his mom to come pick him up.

he's a flat-earther, zeitgeist fan, etc., so basically anything spicy he sees on the internet, he decides is Actually True. Apparently they do/did tons of recruiting along the Appalachian Trail, looking for people who are going through a mid-20s crisis who might be desperate for a new identity.

On some level a large majority of people just want to be told what to do and have all the questions erased from their minds

strongest cult leader? Got to be Roch Thรฉriault. Convincing your followers to jerk of into the skull of a corpse in order to resurrect her requires some serious control over the group.
