A few years ago, I did a video about cults and predicted that we are living in conditions that make cults thrive. Today, a few years later, that seems to be the case, with cult activity skyrocketing not just in the US, but around the world. Today we look at what’s causing this problem, and what you can do if a friend or loved one goes a little too far down the rabbit hole.
