I don't think people understand single person cults enough and also why the US fucking loves a cult.
I kinda think that at some point we need to take seriously the idea that society as it is constituted now is driving a lot of people completely mad

Sure. So people think of cults as groups. But there are lots of cases where cults are just two people: the mark and the clut leader.
Slightly bigger are family cults.

i don't think videogames are an art form that deserve to be squandered by businessmen with no moral compass, techlord fascists, and warring small business owner cults. i don't think they deserve this fate.

As they say, every accusation is a confession. Starts his book by talking about his parties with actual, literal cults lol, then goes on to talk about some of the rest of us who wrote about said cults as being in a cult.
Roose does a very nice job signaling in the second paragraph what sort of book this will be.
He decided to write it the night after partying with ketamine-snorting effective accelerationists.
He isn’t e/acc himself, but he hangs with that crowd and accepts their premises as newsworthy,

Cults are weird
Trump fan says the deep state is making gas prices high: "He's trying his best. He's being opposed every step of the way. What can you do? That's like with gas prices. Yeah, they're high, but, I mean, I think they're being manipulated ... I think they're taking advantage of it."

If you've deconstructed or studied cults, this is cult language. Also hallmarks of cults, exploitation of labor, self-sacrifice of members, high entrance & exit costs, ends justify the means mentality, distinguishable vernacular/language, transcendent mission, charismatic leaders to name a few.

What is it about Secret Societies, Satanic Rituals, Ancient Worshiping Cults, Human Sacrifices, this shit gives me nightmares. Out of all things, this keeps me up at night because... they are real! Have been around a long time. From pagans to modern day cults. They are terrifying. Happy #Halloween 🎃

Cults are almost always just abusive family dynamics writ large. A lot of people who end up in cults come from abusive families and are repeating that dynamic in another "family" that often starts off seeming loving. It's pretty common for cults to call themselves families 🙅♀️
