[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the cult following and how people get in to it is of interest to anyone, google the Jonestown massacre. There's a documentary on it from about 2006 that goes into really great detail about how cults start, evolve, and really trap people in.[/quote]

YES, I know the one you're speaking of, and I thought of it several times watching this show.  One of the men who escaped before the mass suicide/murders was emphatic about saying that a lot of GOOD people died there, and that they're weren't all crazy.  The foundations of the church had been admirable, but became twisted by a power-hungry, mentally unstable leader, and some people were just in too deep to get out or see what it had become.[/quote]

This might seem off topic to some but this is my concern about the republican party now. On the inside, outgoing leaders are already warning employees who will be staying with the administration that they will be prosecuted in the future for any illegal acts this new administration authorizes. Saying 'they made me' will not be an acceptable answer. Off to watch this documentary now to see if there is any way to fight groupthink and continue to lead from within with character and integrity rather than sit from the outside powerless.[/quote]
