like when you find one of those instructive new age websites
with extremely questionable self-help protocols
That's the intention, it's an anti-DeFoo site
ah
it presents him as a kind of L. Ron Hubbard figure
molyneux always seemed questionable
I think he is sociopathic
the fact htat he's "risen to stardom" so quickly affirms this i think
early days
i'd agree
I mean it's just a thought
whatever he is, he is very canny, knows which way the wind blows
i don't have a firm grasp on how influential he is
but he seems to have a very far reach
extremely
it's not clear the end game of this stuff is
well assuming he is a sociopath, there is no endgame, there is no big plan
he is just puffing himself up and getting kicks out of it
seems almost religious in nature
yeah that could be likely
he certainly is prolific, and good at speaking uninterrupted
yeah
I mean I wouldn't call it that, but I know what you mean
culty
cult like behaviour, but more importantly
people who become vulnerable by dissociating with their loved ones
are prime manipulating material for the sociopath
it can be difficult to understand what the sociopath gets out of this
because people tend to consider very material motivations
and while these can certainly be what they want in some cases
fallot did you watch that "holy hell" doc
someone of a more cerebral bent, or just fucking bent, may have different motivations
no, what's that
it's a good recent cult documentary
on netflix if you have that
I'll check it out
but what's it about, just the gist
I don't really want to watch some political tirade on faith
nah it's not that
