  Violet, you should run the sex cult.

    My first thought was that I want to run a sex cult. Because my brain always goes to a joke first. But in all seriousness I feel like a sex cult would be a lot of work to keep up and I don’t think I have the motivation or energy for it. I don’t even think I could be part of a sex cult. They’d be like, time for the orgy, and I’d be like nahhhh…maybe I’ll just hang out over here with a coffee. I had a threesome in college and even that was a bit much, trying to do things for two people. Theres more pressure and more work. I’ll have my coffee and wife, please.

      My dude just wanted to stunt on us that they’d had a college threesome.

      Very nice

    We prefer the term swingers club.

  It’s a myth that “anyone can get caught up in a cult”. While it’s true that cults have snared intelligent and sophisticated people, cults exclusively target the emotionally vulnerable. Just like email scammers intentionally use poor spelling and grammar to exclude all but the most credulous, cults have barriers to entry that are going to weed out skeptical people. You often have to dress a certain way; theirs a crazy amount of nomenclature; and strict status and hierarchys to obey. Only the people who have a strong desire to belong and conform are going to tolerate that.

  I don’t say this like oh, I’m too smart to be in a cult. I say it to emphasize that cults prey on vulnerable people.

    Intelligent and Sophisticated people can also be emotionally vulnerable.

    Hell I’d say the prevalence is even more so among the intelligent.

    I’m not all that bright, but I’m far too skeptical to get sucked in. As to status and hierarchies and obedience, aw hell no, not going to play along.

    So would I get rejected right off, or are there strategies to hook people like me?

  At my last job the technician who worked in our group just casually dropped in conversation, months into knowing him, “Yeah, I used to be in a cult.”

  I had so many questions. He acted like it was just a funny story from his past, but he lived in the Alaskan wilderness for years. He only left a few weeks before we met. He got married and had a child, and his family stayed behind because his wife was in love with the cult leader.

  I asked “Why would you ever?” and he said that they made some good points about the nature of our reality. And I’m thinking “Dude, you still believe in the cult? You seemed so normal!”

  I guess it happens to real people, too.

  We should have more cults where we put on costumes and do sophisticated choreography. Like innocent theatre stuff that just happens to be sexy. There is an ethical way to do it.

  We’re not a cult. We’re an organization that promotes love.

  Go ahead, eat the children.

  Or maybe you could join a cult that revolves around empathy () to level out the child-eating tendencies.

  I wish there was a cult like this. Instead it’s just the most unoriginal fascist transphobic “”“Christians”“”
