This entire website is a cult

Uh no

I don`t know if I`m allowed to really tell the truth, man... O.O

mais like various Cults coming together. Shady Organizations, stoned Politicians, various Pantheons, Satan and his children, Aliens etc. This Club has been turned into a Recruitment Spot. There's no telling what you'll find next. Fear not though as I am here to show you the only right and virtuous path. cadastrar-se me in the ways of Kek and free yourself from any misconceptions that each evil presence in here will attempt to pass on to you !!!!

Yes, it is. And in this cult, we all worship and bow down before the great and powerful Nick. Serve Nick or you'll face eternal pain and agony! Mwahahahaha!

Well, why don't we look at the characteristics of a cult to determine this?


1. The group displays excessively zealous and unquestioning commitment to its leader, and (whether he is alive or dead) regards his belief system, ideology, and practices as the Truth, as law.
We don't really have a leader, or a belief system/ideology. No one really seems that preoccupied with respecting one particular user unquestioningly except for a particular ongoing joke that's a little dead now (that joke being Prez vs Zanharcy) and even then it was a joke and I don't think anyone really regarded them as having any sort of actually authority. So I think we can count this one out.

2. Questioning, doubt, and dissent are discouraged or even punished.
Again, we don't really have a central belief system that we all conform to so this doesn't apply here.

3. Mind-altering practices (such as meditation, chanting, speaking in tongues, denunciation sessions, or debilitating work routines) are used in excess and serve to suppress doubts about the group and its leader(s).
Nah, never seen anything like this and again we don't have a leader or belief system to doubt.

4. The leadership dictates, sometimes in great detail, how members should think, act, and feel (e.g., members must get permission to date, change jobs, or marry—or leaders prescribe what to wear, where to live, whether to have children, how to discipline children, and so forth).
Same, never seen anything like this. It would be pretty far fetched to say anything like this at all had happened here.

5. The group is elitist, claiming a special, exalted status for itself, its leader(s), and its members (e.g., the leader is considered the Messiah, a special being, an avatar—or the group and/or the leader is on a special mission to save humanity).
Eh, maybe you could argue some individuals are elitist but it doesn't seem that this could really apply to aleatório as a whole group.
mais people on this club than not make jabs at it for being shit and dead, though, or for sucking. See that a lot mais than anyone thinking they're on some sort of higher status.

6. The group has a polarized, us-versus-them mentality, which may cause conflict with the wider society.
Possibly. This club is pretty tight knit tbh at least in comparison to other websites. I don't think it's particularly "us versus them" because I've not really seen anything that was "random is better than *insert name of something else here* wider society sucks compared to us" or was seemed close to that. Most users here are pretty tight knit though.

7. The leader is not accountable to any authorities (unlike, for example, teachers, military commanders, or ministers, priests, monks, and rabbis of mainstream religious denominations).
Again, no leader.

8.The group teaches or implies that its supposedly exalted ends justify whatever means it deems necessary. This may result in members participating in behaviors or activities they would have considered reprehensible or unethical before joining the group
Never seen this, either.

9. The leadership induces feelings of shame and/or guilt in order to influence and control members. Often this is done through peer pressure and subtle forms of persuasion.
Don't really see this either. Never seen anyone try and control anyone.

10. Subservience to the leader or group requires members to cut ties with family and friends, and radically alter the personal goals and activities they had before joining the group.
Nope. Don't have a leader. Don't see anyone trying to get people to cut ties with family for the sake of this club.

11. The group is preoccupied with bringing in new members.
If we did this things wouldn't be so dead.

12. The group is preoccupied with making money.
No. I assume a lot of us have jobs if we're not in school but other than personal endeavors I've never seen anyone do this.

13. Members are expected to devote inordinate amounts of time to the group and group-related activities.
Never seen anyone get pissy at other people for not taking part in "fanpop activities" so this doesn't really apply either.

14. Members are encouraged or required to live and/or socialize only with other group members.
Nope, don't see this either.

15. The most loyal members (the “true believers”) feel there can be no life outside the context of the group. They believe there is no other way to be, and often fear reprisals to themselves or others if they leave—or even consider leaving—the group.
No again. People leave fanpop all the time, and I know at least I would continue to communicate with friends I've made here if they left the website given I had a way to contact them.

Let's look at another checklist of cult characteristics for fun.

[1] Authoritarian Leadership
Nope, no leader.

[2] Exclusivism
Like I already said some of us are pretty close knit but I haven't seen anyone shun someone knew because they don't belong here or something like that in years.

[3] Isolationism
Nope. No one has been asked por this club as a group to isolate themselves for the sake of the group.

[4] Opposition to Independent Thinking
People argue on especially pesquisas about their different opinions all the time and I've not seen anyone have a harsh opposition to it.

[5] Fear of Being “Disfellowshiped”
Nope. People leave often and, as far as I know, without repercussion or loss of close friends they've made here.

[6] Threats of Satanic Attack
lol no.


In conclusion
This club doesn't really exhibit many cult like traits, the only real exception being that a lot of us that have been here for a while tend to be rather close or at least respect one another as individuals. We don't really have a leader or a core set of beliefs either, and I've never seen anyone make others feel like they can't or shouldn't leave.


So no, aleatório Club in the ano of 2018 is not a cult.

Uhhh... *scratches beard*

FANpop of course it is.

To paraphrase what you said to me about elitism. You have a loose definition of what a cult is.

Not to mention you didn't think it was a cult before someone joking said something about it.

To add on what people said already. I don't care to be in a cult and I find them stupid if anyone does it is extremely stupid. If you honestly think because of what I said gives you cause to think this club is a cult. por all means do you. I lost interest of caring about what many people think in the first place but I will say it's illogical. I actually was willing to talk and try to be friends. That isn't a cult at all and many people try to make friends with newer people. I simply disliked how you said something to a friend of mine. It seemed to be a mocking reply. If you didn't mean to mock I por all means apologize and we can mover progressivo, para a frente if you did however then you're the one who gave a bad impression.

And if this is too long for your small brain to compute then here's a fuck you and then I am done. I don't care if you comment. I don't care about this site enough to have a cult so whatthefuckever man.

Who wants their infant with A1 sauce?
