    I actually don’t find this a bad post

    I fuckin’ do, it looks like disingenuous trash sneaking in a pile of awfulness under cover of a facially plausible argument that was obviously never going to reach these bozos, as the comments amply demonstrate

    but i’m sure titotal (who is active here) will be along any moment to explain how we’ve got him wrong

      i’ll also add that he completely misses how cults work. (intentionally?) all that jargon and doorknocking have additional effect of convincing cult members that everyone else is hostile to them

        I’m pretty sure that it’s absolutely intentional. I’ve seen exvies talk about how the instruction for children to evangelize to other children is absolutely a way to convince your kids that they’re alone in a hostile world.
