People need to realise that cults are not as niche and hard to come by and fall into as they are made out to be. They come in many forms. A cult is simply a high demand group that comes in any form, whether it's in the form of a religious organisation, a family unit, a work environment, self help groups, friend groups, political spheres and many other examples, if a group of people is demanding and consuming all of your time and resources, if you find yourself losing your identity, your ability to question & your ability to entertain doubts due to fear of being cast out or punished, you're in a cult.
