Episode 108 Cult or Nah? NXIVM

Wellllll this topic got dark real quick 😐  Next up in our series - Cults or Nah? We take on the f*cked up world of NXIVM.  Just like Scientology, this group really focused on self development and the need to keep learning, training and continually fund the “group”. The difference with this one was the focused on sex and the secrecy of inside groups like DOS.  What started out for most as a beacon of light in their lowest, saddest times, turned into modern day sex slavery with a side of actual branding. I think the biggest difference on this one was how well it had hid itself as a bad group since they were even able to get the Dalai Lama to come visit. On the outside, this just seemed like a very empowering group of people.  It attracted very smart and talented humans like Alison Mack. It turned very dark very quickly to the point now where everyone (not all though!) have been accused and the leader, Keith Raniere rots in prison. As he should.  This is what happens when people have god like complexes and an ability to manipulate masses. With surrounding themselves in echo chambers, and removing all those who oppose, this is very dangerous. Kinda like the last few years…. If you get my drift 😏  Kinda like the leaders of the “free world”…. But this is just OUR opinions of OUR data collection thus far! We encourage YOU to look at this stuff yourself and decide… cult or NAH?!  Jump into this episode with us to see how we feel about the “group” NXIVM.
