TW: cults
I genuinely hate when people say things like "I'll make a new cult" or "join my new cult" and it's just a community or friend group. It waters down the word so badly because cults are a real thing still happening. It isn't "cool" to call your community a cult at all. It isn't "trendy" either. It's harmful. Cults have high control environments where you're scared to even break any rule or god forbid leave the cult. Thoes other "cults" people like to make don't have that. They're just a community. They have consent and there is no fear unlike real cults. This just pisses me off to no end.
