Hey colts stop the run like once so they throw pls <| sep |> They like most cults offer a place feeling of belonging and a guided and purposeful existence the purpose being getting clear , achieving nirvana or whatever other bullshit ladder to success they have built for the followers to climb . In itself these things are highly necessary and people who lack them but have the money to spend aren ' t wrong to use that money to buy them . It ' s the same thing that drives people to get plastic surgery or therapy , they feel an emotional lack and the business offers to fill it . It ' s just that the cult ' s business model provides not real , sustainable improvements . Which is understandable , all businesses try to pull the same shit . That ' s why we have alwaysonline games , etc . Cults are just more scummy because what they ' re selling is so fundamentally necessary to human beings and the people who need it most are typically mentally unable to understand the full implications of what the cult is really selling . Also being a religion they are allowed to blatantly lie about their product .
