Episode 112 Cult or Nah? Cult Mania

from The Be Real Babe Podcast · host Brandi Marie

In our final episode (for now!) on cults or nah? We decided to round up 3 of the darkest ones. We start with the Community of Jesus, stationed in the states but reached all the way up here in a place called Grenville Christian College in Ontario. This cult is a lot smaller than the others we’ve seen but the damage done is disgusting. Abuse, isolation, brainwashing and torture took place at both spots. On record levels. To the point they were believing that illness came from your sins and beating it out of you was one way to fix it. On to the next… Charles Manson. Welp. What can we really say about this lunatic that hadn’t already? I mean the guy allegedly convinced his followers or sorry “family” members to murder others…. While on on trial for these murders, there were still women falling at his feet outside the court house. If that isn’t culty… we aren’t sure what is. He used manipulation and things like LSD to have them cave to his every will. I’m not sure if gets much darker than that… Welllll shit babes. It got darker. Jonestown. We all know the saying.. “don’t drink the kool aid”, but do we know where that came from? We learned more and dang. We ended our cult research here. 918 people. Including children. All drank(or were forced) the juice in 1978 in Jonestown and it went down as the largest mass murder of American lives in history (prior to 911). As typical cult leaders do, Jim Jones promised a beautiful life and a safe heaven from the wickedness of the outside world… while on crazy amounts of drugs and claiming to be to be a prophet. 😬 How did it go from paradise to hell? Join us on this episode to learn more! And also, go see what you can find on the subjects too! But make sure to sprinkle in some animal videos to balance that energy!!
