How do they do it? Lets explore 5 ways cults are formed.
1. Keep It Vague And Simple
Cult leaders offer the promise of something great and transformative. However, they keep their words vague, and full of promises. The attraction comes from charm and their seductive words. But notice: what are they really saying?

2. Emotion Over Logic
They amuse the bored, they trigger excessive amounts of quick dopamine hits (again think motivational speakers)
People work all day, they don’t have the energy to grow bored. Cult leaders provide luxury, dazzling objects, they keep them ENGAGED.

3. Religious Structure
They give their audience rituals to perform. These rituals are small and powerful. Think group activities, political rallies, chants, claps..
They speak like GURUS, prophets. They ask you to sacrifice friends and family, all for them.

4. Hidden Source Of Income
They never seem to be hungry for money. They never open up about their income. Why? Because it comes from their followers pockets. The “Methods” bring the money in. (Think forex signal groups ;) )
Followers will copy bringing more and more in..

5. Us Vs Them
People feel the need to believe in something greater than themselves.
They make others feel like they are apart of something revolutionary and special. A cause to fight for (think politicians again)
