kekism
>>18734477
>starship troopers
you haven't read the book have you? it's hopped up national socialism, not Americanism
>>18734489
naw, just the cheesy movie
Jim Jones is wild hes up there, but probably scientology just because of how brainwashing it is
I'm doing some reading, and man, Heavens Gate was fucking insane
If the Manson Family doesn't count, then Aum Shinrikyo takes the cake, no doubt.
>>18734465
Adamites
>>18734465
Rick and morty

What'chu been reading?
>>18734780
Just the wikipedia entry. Specifically the history section. Applewhite was batshit insane, and heavily influenced by scifi. It's crazy to think people went along with what his schtick
The one, Perfect cult
>>18734790
Applewhite seemed to really believe his bullshit unlike Jim Jones who was just a vain fuck
Cult of saturn
>>18734489
>national socialism
That movie was my most favorite movie of all time when I was a kid. Wtf... everything I know is a lie
>>18734802
I personally think a lot of them really believed their own shit. But yeah, Jones was a gommie fuck. Have you listened to the Death Tape?
It's haunting as shit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkookcrAnSE&t=1803s
These people are incredibly deluded
>>18734819
Yea, when I was reading Raven i kept having a recurring dream that I was in Jonestown during the massacre and would only hear Jones giving slurred speeches about nothing. That shit was haunting even though I didn't die.

I've been to their temple, it's pretty damn breath taking.
>>18734465
My grandmother and mom were in a cult til she was about 10 years old
I don't know what it was called but I know that David Koresh spoke there and she wasn't allowed to cut her hair or watch/listen to anything new in the time
Also the preachers would insist on privately meeting with all the female members after they got their first period
And you all know what that means.
So yeah it was pretty fucked up, if any anon knows what cult this sounds like let me know so I can look into it more. Massachusetts if that helps
>>18734920
looks like tower of babylon
>>18734832
Listening to this tape has angered me. It's so fucking infuriating and it truly makes me wonder. Do these pieces of shit get their karma in the afterlife? Do they get any punishment at all? What kind of fucking universe is this if these fucking monsters don't get the hell they deserve?
>>18734945
Your grandma and mom would get fucked? Need more info on this anon...
>>18734790
yeah, it's crazy to think people have no earthly idea what they're doing, so they follow whomever has the biggest dick
>>18734982
My grandmother was not the preachers target he was interested in the kids. My mom was ten when she left and didn't get her period til 13 so she was safe. But her friend however was not so lucky and she would get sexually assaulted groped molested etc by the preacher and I assume a lot of the others would too.

>>18735125
What happened to the group?
>>18735129
damn... who is this semon demon
>>18735138
All I know is that my grandmother left due to some life changing action. Snapped out of it I guess. The church was like right in the center of town and now it's some other religion using it no idea what happened/why it shut down. but my mom definitely had a lot of paranormal shit happen in her lifetime. Violent hauntings cults premonitions. I'll post the full stories after spring break since I'll have a chance to talk to her about them in more detail
>>18735239
lookin forward too it

Those arent floors, the ceiling goes up that high and it's pretty daunting

Jim Jones called himself a God, he is burning in hell
ctrl+f: Constanzo: No results
No one's ever heard of this fucker?
Subscribed to a fucked up belief system called Palo Mayombe, where they would kidnap, torture, and kill people, then mutilate them to keep different body parts for their nganga, a cauldron believed to contain a malevolent spirit. Closest we have to a real 'Satanic cult,' but since Constanzo worshipped a Palo Mayombe devil named kaliempembe, not correct to call it that.

Post on the subject from reddit's /r/unresolvedmysteries, one of the less-poor-but-still-not-great summations online. The book he mentions, though, is really good

Jim Jones was a communist and an asshole.
Think about his followers. How do you convince 900+ people to ingest poison and end their lives? Did you hear the tape? People were THANKING Jones for the opportunity to commit "revolutionary suicide."
What kind of person joins a cult?
>>18736926
Because his followers were mentally unstable. They were brainwashed. He specifically chose those types of people to be his followers, because he knew that they were mentally vulnerable.
>>18734465
The cult of KEK, ofc.
The Aetherius Society. Coolest looking leader.
>>18736966
Digits confirm, praise Kek! Esoteric Kekism is best.
>>18734465
jim jones was alpha as fuck
>>18734979
I'm pretty sure I ask myself that exact question hundreds of times throughout the day. There's no easy answer. This universe is and was not meant to be.
>>18736926
Don't try to interpret this looking through the stupid politics ideology glasses. Same can be said about Hitler. How can he convince millions of young Germans to just vanish for something they will never see built? Brainwashing happens everywhere.
>>18734979
Don't be so dramatic. Everyone who died there deserved it.
>>18734730
Literally an awesome anime death cult

Hitler's only flaw was that he was too kind.

It's crazier that his website is still active over 20 years later.
