Many people around the world attend gatherings, community groups, religious services, or secret organizations even during the pandemic. Some do it on Sunday mornings, others do it on different days or nights of the week. When you are surrounded by the people in your chosen group you may find that you ask yourself: “Am I in a cult?'”
Well, we’re going to dig deep here to help answer that question: There are clear telltale signs that you are actually in a cult.
MONEY
Everybody wants money. Most legitimate organizations (often churches) want up to 10 percent of everything you make, sometimes less if you’re lucky. A cult wants 90 to 100 percent of your money and worldly possessions! In other words, a cult is a blood-sucking vampire that drains you of all you own.
TIME
Yes, you can be very active in your group, dedicating large chunks of your time. But a cult monopolizes ALL of your time, except when you need to go to work. And it’s important that you go to work, so you can give your money to them! This is a clear sign you are in a cult.
Charismatic Leader
Let’s face it, you don’t want to follow a leader who is just some drab, boring, old white guy. These guys are typically someone who couldn’t find a date for the prom or a friend to toss a ball to. But they are not a cult leader. Cult leaders always have a dynamic personality, baby! They play music, sing, are athletic, have long-hair and a brilliant smile. People are drawn to a cult leader like vegans are drawn to cauliflower rice. Sure, cult leaders may be a bit aggressive and demanding at times, but they are oh so captivating. If you feel like you need to be around this person twenty-four hours a day – you may be in a cult.
ALIENS
As much as we all love aliens, if you’re in a new group and they telling you they are from Planet Gootan, you’re probably in a cult! You may want to stay on earth just a wee bit longer. If they won’t let you leave until you sign a gazillion-year contract with Pluto’s moon, you may be in an Extraterrestrial Cult.
DRESS
Most people wear their ‘Sunday best’ when going to church. Cult groups take this much further. Strange robes, matching tracksuits or even strange underwear having magical properties can all be part of a cult required attire. There are no hard and fast rules about this and we all have our fashion sense. But if they make you wear magic Spanx – you may be in a cult.
Handlers
A personal shopper or valet can be a fun and luxurious experience when out and about. But if you just got involved with a new group and you got someone assigned to you to watch your every move, well it’s not for fun! They’re watching you and you just are now an official member of a cult. Say goodbye to your free-wheeling Target days.
Sex orgies
No self-respecting cult is complete without sex orgies. If, one day, you go to your group meeting and the charismatic leader tells you that you must partake in a group orgy OR if he tells you he is going to have sex with your wife and three other members of the group. Well, that probably means you’re in a cult. If the charismatic leader as you to have sex with him (or her) whenever he (or she) wants. That is another good sign you are in a cult.
Apocalyptic Obsessions
Many cults have an unhealthy obsession with the end of the world. If they go on about this, find the nearest door and use it! If they have stockpiles of weapons, rations, etc., it may be a Doomsday Cult. Leave right away, but stay on good terms with the other members, just in case they’re right.
Miscellaneous
Do they require you to shave your head? Put on Nikes and drink the poison juice? Try to recruit other members? Do they purposely try to get celebrities to join the group to gain credibility? Is the organization’s founder a criminal? Mentally unstable? A former science fiction writer? An out of work salesman? Be on the lookout.
If you answered yes to any of these crucial questions, then you are probably in a cult. If you can, leave. Or call friends, family (if they let you), or just — run! If you are unable to do any of these things, you may be stuck. Hopefully, you can move up the ranks and maybe someday you’ll be the cult leader. There’s a lot of benefits. Money, admirer, sex, and maybe even life after death.
Ok, I just want to ask anomynously there’s a leader I like. He’s the greatest! everybody keeps saying he’s stupid and corrupted a bunch of other things but I don’t care if he shot someone. I photshipped his head on a ripped bod. I have a bunch of flags and signs with his name on it and drive my pickup truck with th flags, em I in a cult? I AM NOT IN A CULT!!!!
Also, I like Ed Anger a lot. not in a gay way
aparently you are if the persons name begins wiht a T and ends with a rump
OMG…………………………My wife is in a cult!!!!!
All this time I thought she was spending her and my money on drugs, alcohol and gambling. Turns out she has been giving it to the cult she belongs to. I just read in her calendar planner that their “group is going to drink the Jim Jones Kool Aid on September 21st.” This happens to be on the exact same day the planet Niburu is going to collide with earth.
Where is PhD. Ape? We need him to counsel the world on preparing for our doomsday just a week away.
Is Ed Anger a Cult leader?
I lived in the time of the whale apes. I ate monk pudding and stole the grable-sword. I knew concrete moths that sold old style hooker-chili in Scompton. And I tells ya … you should join my cult.
I want to sell my soul to devil
I want money, more women and power
I m ready to join the cult
My Leader babels on about CornPop and other Bad Dudes. He talks to dead people at press conferences. He sniffs the hair and tries to kiss and fondle little girls. He falls going Up stairs. He loves eating ice cream in public , then riding a bicycle only to fall over. He wears diapers and goes to bed at 4pm right after milk and cookies. My fellow cultist believe anything the media tells them and recite lies to achieve that goal. Part on my cults uniform is to wear up to 4 masks in public all while judging anyone who is a free thinker fighting the JAB. My cult has many rich and famous members and 1 teen Swedish chick. They preach about global warming and yet fly and boat around the world burning fossil fuel and polluting. My cult can not tell the biological and physical characteristic of a male or female gender and insist there are many other sexes depending on how they feel at any particular time..
