I ask this during a time when it has become trendy to “expose” the inner workings of so-called cults. Ever since Leah Remini started doing her exposé gig with her time spent in Scientology, different people have come forward claiming to have been in cults, sometimes seeing cults where they don’t even exist (which is why I’ve often joked this is the “new new atheist movement” or the “Mephistopheles panic”, a joke on the fact it’s just another Satanic panic). The comments section never sees it my way, but I can see through a lot of these cough cough Alyssa Grenfall cough cough
However, nobody in this part of the media has ever been known for complete honesty/accuracy. For example, there were survivor tips that used to circulate on there for people who were stuck in the desert, and many of these tips, such as vaporizing your pee to drink it, would most likely kill you.
But there are many of you who have expertise or opinions that draw you against some people more than others. What such people do you disagree with or object to the most?
I enjoyed the channel “forgotten weapons”. I think guns are neat, but I don’t wanna hear any right wing NRA bullshit. The presenter avoided politics and I was happy.
Then he did a series on guns from Rhodesia. OK, I give him the benefit of the doubt, though people who are interested in Rhodesia are way more sus than those interested in Nazi Germany. But then, the channel featured anti-riot weapons at the height of the George Floyd summer and I can only view that as pro-pig messaging. Fuck that channel.
