Is Keeping This Job Worth LOSING Your Mind?! | Profiling Evil

What does control actually look like when you strip away the labels and get down to behavior? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Steven Hassan to talk about the BITE Model, one of the most practical frameworks for understanding how controlling people, high-demand groups, and manipulative systems gain influence over others. Dr. Hassan draws from his own experience of being recruited into the Unification Church, often referred to as the Mooney’s cult, and explains how the work of psychiatrist Robert J. Lifton helped him understand what had happened to him. From there, he breaks down the four parts of the BITE Model, Behavior, Information, Thought, and Emotional control, and explains how these methods can slowly override independent thinking and trap people in unhealthy systems.This conversation goes beyond cults. It helps us think through coercive control in families, relationships, organizations, religious groups, and other environments where power gets used to dominate rather than serve. If you’ve ever asked yourself how intelligent, capable people can get pulled into harmful systems, this interview gives you a clear, grounded place to start. Watch all the way through, because Dr. Hassan also explains how people can begin to test what they’ve been told, step back from controlling influence, and start reclaiming their freedom.#ProfilingEvil #StevenHassan #BITEModel #CoerciveControl #UndueInfluence #CultPsychology #MindControl #ThoughtReform #RobertLifton #BehaviorControl #InformationControl #ThoughtControl #EmotionalControl #TrueCrime #CrimeAnalysis #CultSurvivor #FreedomOfMind #HighControlGroups #ForensicPsychology #criminalbehavior ========================================Check out Dr. Steven Hassan at www.FreedomOfMind.com ========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Email your questions to: [email protected]========================================💳 DONATE: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=T54JX76RZ455S💵 PayPal: https://paypal.me/profilingevil🕵️BECOME A MEMBER: https://www.youtube.com/profilingevil/join🛒SHOP MERCH: https://www.profilingevil.com/profilingevilshop📖SHOP BOOKS: https://www.profilingevil.com/storeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
