>>12975108>>12975108I think he is wrong that they are a symptom of it, I think cultists have always existed, they just have such antipathy for all other cults, past and present, that people, like Ted, fall for their lie that they are any different than the inquisitors of past movements.
Ironically zealots in the past have usually had a reproductive advantage in the form of a "go forth and multiply" doctrine, leftism today may very well be the last cult.
Ironically, the industrial revolution didn't make them, but it may destroy them.
Or maybe boomercons are the modern cultists. They seem to just want to mow their lawns and grill and don't scream self-righteously as much as the left though.
