I wrote a post on Gab on how to spot cults:
You can always recognize a cult by their Us Vs. Them mindset. They think they have more rights than everyone else, including the "right" to be violent against those who don't believe the way they do. The Left is a cult, the Right is a cult. Statism in general is a cult. The military and police are cults. Every one of them has the M.O. of worldview violence. They want to push their beliefs and ideologies onto everyone else (often through legislation), and those who don't comply are demonized and have their Rights violated. Cultism creates the "divide and rule" dynamic.
A follower liked and reposted it, and then another reader responded (my emphasis in bold):
"Much of what you are describing can be applied to tribes, and therefore nations of people. This is a natural tendency of human beings. In-group vs. Out-group. It is a mistake to pathologize a natural human tendency, particularly relevant to survival. Also, violence is a reality of nature on Earth."
What we're seeing in that response is the result of dark occult social engineering. This is the Satanic "humans are just other animals" belief coming through. I've explained this in my website content, but let's do this once again...
Human nature isn't inherently anything except programmable. No one's default nature is violence. No one's default nature is "us vs. them." This is learned. We take in bad input and then output bad behavior. Wrong info = wrong actions. Truth is always there, but we ignore it because we want to believe things that placate our egos. And then we teach those erroneous beliefs to our children and encourage the same mindset. People in positions of "authority" – whose power is dependent on that ignorance – make sure to keep it going. Then we have entire populations with this mindset and assume "that's just human nature."
There can be tribes and populations without ignorance of truth, sovereignty and rights. The cult mentality is learned. Violence is not a "reality of nature," we've just fallen short of conscience – the knowledge of the objective difference between Right and Wrong. No one is born with the tendency to violate the rights of others in self-preservation. It's all bad programming, and it's perpetuated by beings who WANT us this way. An ignorant, immoral species is a controllable species.
We are not just other animals. The mistake is to believe THAT nonsense. We are Human Beings, gifted with the capacity for reason, to understand what a moral action is (and WHY it's moral) and what an immoral action is (and WHY it is immoral). Along with that, we have the gift of Free Will to choose which actions we take. We are not constrained by instinct. We are not, by default, vicious and animalistic. That is Satanic ideology.
Human Nature is that we have the capacity to learn and evolve. There is nothing normal or natural about violence. There is nothing normal or natural about failing to recognize the Rights and Sovereignty of others. We have to override that programming, because that's all it is.
