True facts. Anyone who disagrees hasn’t analyzed whether they think our “special interest groups”, political orgs, police, legal system etc each fit the definition of cult or gang.

On top of the more obvious examples of cults and gangs like the southern baptists, HOAs, PTAs, which are all largely various religious or racially motivated ideological special interest groups as well as being motivated by an even bigger cult of “line go up more gooder” and organized crime of various kinds like fraud, insider trading, tax evasion, racial/ethnic segregation, etc etc with various degrees of “falling back on violence” (even if it’s the violence of the state) to enforce their gang activity.

Or even pinky to thumb?
