I enjoy cults.

I don't like the force
but the force likes me

>>12034956
you gotta give ppl what they want, I started a cult on [s4s] and it's mostly about fasting and starving urself so you can crossdress and be cute, ppl post that stuff even when I'm not on.

>>12034964
you don't even know me like that, nor do you know what my ideology stands for
>>12034963
then join; join the cult of free will

some people join cults because they're looking for high-control groups to tell them how to live their lives, maybe you shot yourself in the food by promising free will to the people who joined

>>12034973
I know that your ideology is cringe and so is your cult

>>12034971
>you gotta give people what they want
that is precisely what my cult is about though
it is literally about the freedom to get what you want and get along while doing so, but people don't seem to want this
people think they crave structure of some sorts (probably propagated by a government who doesn't love you) and criticize my cult for being "too free"
but don't worry my child, you'll see soon enough who's right, and who's wrong

>>12034975
>some people join cults because they're looking for high-control groups
and that's precisely the problem.. you seem to fully understand why my cult has failed :)
>>12034977
nice dubs, but saying this is meaningless when there's no substance behind your words
i can call you cringe too, you know, doesn't mean anything

Have you tried passing out free dream catchers?

>>12035150
hmm... i haven't actually thought of that..
maybe that's what my cult needs; semi-religious symbolism

>>12035157
maybe you need a good hat. there are lots of religions that set themselves apart with their hats like islam and judaism and sikhism

>>12034956
How do you fail at a children's game?

>>12035229
first of all i was talking about my irl cult
second of all, Cult Of The Lamb is not a children's game, it literally has sex in it and blood sacrifices.. but it's indeed not a hard game, it's quite an easy Roguelike Animal Crossing clone
third of all, Sonic Unleashed is a kid's game and waaay harder than for example Grand Theft Auto, so obviously difficulty and target demographic are not synonymous
that said, i'm not bad at either of those games, i completed both :D
could you now join my cult?
>>12035165
that would be unison, which i'm not 100% sure if it fits within my cult but i don't condemn it either
maybe i should start making robes or pajamas, and i could make it look sexy too to make it more appealing

>>12035243
i was thinking you'd make a had that's so cool that everyone naturally wants to wear it and they don't need to be compelled

>>12035246
i like how you understood my hesitation and immediately addressed my concerns.. wow, you're really good at this cult stuff, aren't you, lowercase anon?
how would you like to join my cult?

>>12035246
hat*

>>12035252
what's the benefit of joining the cult? living for free on a commune would be kind of nice, but it sounds like your cult isn't big enough to have a place of its own

>>12034956
lol

>>12035256
that is precisely why we need more members
if we get enough members to let's say create our own Jonestown (without the unfortunate ending) then we can precisely achieve this goal; a commune of free spirited members
and i understand fully well that with anarchy comes its downsides, that's why i only have a couple of ground rules (which we can always discuss as a community later, in case of inconvenience) to prevent the downsides from coming true
one ground rule for example is that we don't define members by people who join our club (for lack of a better word), rather you are a member by believing in the cause, and as a reward you get to be one of us
those who never believed in our cause were never members anyway
so if for example, some shady person were to join and mess everything up with mal-intend, we can prevent this by simply not treating him as part of the community
don't think of it as shunning, or persecution.. think of it more as, we offer help to our own kind, and only to our own kind, which those who don't align with our ways do not belong to
i know that sounds like typical cult-like shunning, but i promise it's not, it's just logical common sense..
take friend groups for example; sharing is caring, in a friendship.. you would share your cookie with your friends right? you wouldn't share your cookies with a complete stranger who doesn't even like to be your friend right?
so think of it less as shunning and more as, we are all friends here, and those who are not our friends shall therefore be treated accordingly; like the non-friends they are
one of our ground rules is that we have to get along, because we're in it together, and together we stay strong :)
it's less of a religious cult and more of a friendship cult

>>12035272
you call it 'anarchy' but it really sounds like you're reinventing police 'act in accordance with the will of the group, or we'll deny you resources.' i'm too much of a nihilist to be a part of a group like that, but i wish you well

>>12035272
wow that's a lot of cringe that you just typed out there

>>12035278
no no no no no, i said we'd like anarchy but it comes with its downsides that we can go around by using this measure
you're also missing the point.. like i said, it's like giving cookie to a friend..
let's put it this way, some guy from China who you never met asks you for a cookie, what would you say? you would say "who tf are you?" right? it's the same here
our cult is more like friendship, and we only give out resources to our friends, to prevent bad actors from taking advantage
but if everyone in the friend group disagrees with this method, we can always work our way around, but we do indeed only share our cult with our cult (that's why it's a cult)
outsiders are not members of our cult.. they're welcome, but not members, which they can become if they want to (but only someone who agrees with our cause really wants to)
you have demonstrated that you don't want to be one of us, and therefore we will treat you accordingly (no cookie for you) which you shouldn't be bothered by because you already disagreed with our cause in the first place
>>12035281
here is another example of someone who is not a member.. he doesn't agree with our cause, and therefore we won't be giving him a cookie

>>12035295
you're implying that everyone in the cult would agree on who was a 'friend' and who was not. there's no way to do this on a person-by-person basis, so ultimately you'll be forced to come up with rules which you have to follow in order to be a 'friend.' that isn't a free community

>>12035314
that's why it's a cult
i know it's a bit oxymoronic, but hey transparency is also one of our virtues (at least when it comes to what we are, i ain't trying to invade people's privacy lol) so i choose to not lie about it and be completely honest
besides, those rules aren't set in place to force upon its members, because those who didn't follow those rules weren't members to begin with
you have to want to be my friend, and you have to want to be friends with my friends
it's not "be my friend or else" kinda situation, it's more a "you're a member by being a friend" situation
let's put it like this.. let's say you're Christian; okay, so what defines being Christian? a Christian is a person who believes in Jesus and is devoted to the Bible.. that's just its definition
you can be a Christian, without being a good Christian, but you can't be a Christian if you don't believe in Christianity
the same is true with our cult; you can totally be our member and not be like us, but you can't say you're one of us if you're not one of us..
a friend is a friend, it's just pure semantics and common sense at that point
so it's not a "that isn't a free community" situation, if you were never a member of our community
a Chinese immigrant without American citizenship is not an American, it's a Chinese illegal immigrant
so a person who is not my friend, is not my friend
it's just common sense
