I was actually making a tongue-in-cheek reply to the comment above yours, but damn. Interesting stuff, thanks for sharing!
You're welcome!
Jonestown happened when I was a kid, so when Waco happened, I did some rabbit-hole dives into cult phenomena how they entrap people, so I'll nerd out about it from time to time.
And don't get me started on Far Cry 5 and its failure to actually look at how cults work. (Of course Ubisoft was afraid of ~~losing business from~~ getting called out by the rising Christian nationalist movement in the US.)
