"We have a serious problem with cults and groupthink in the US. It& #39;s not just in our political and media systems. You can see it emerging everywhere. You see personality cults around public officials; you see groups like QAnon." -- @gaslitnation https://www.patreon.com/posts/robert-mueller-31345690">https://www.patreon.com/posts/rob...
"We are living in a transition from democracy to authoritarianism. That means we& #39;re living in a time of intense confusion and fear. Institutions have collapsed. In these conditions, people revert to blind faith and cults become appealing." -- @gaslitnation https://www.patreon.com/posts/robert-mueller-31345690">https://www.patreon.com/posts/rob...
