Literal cringe. This non-figuratively annoys me to the point I involuntarily wince in displeasure.

Oversimplified edgelord's guide to building an actual DnD litch/KKK style death cult for the ultimate nefarious purpose of… what? Getting to feel cool for once in your life or whatever? There are less embarrassing ways to boost your self esteem you know?

I like hooded cloaks, wavy ceremonial daggers and pretend wizard shit as much as the next person but I've come to despise all kinds of sincere SEKRIT KLUB type shit from student fraternities to even more nazi possibly student fraternities. It always feels like egomaniacal autofellatio for everyone involved.

At least wait until you're old enough to have a midlife crisis, maybe at that point joining masons/shriners/rotaries/lions seems more age-appropriate.

"Don't waste your breath decoding the enigma from outside the cave"

oh good we're starting with a misconstruction of plato's cave

Step 2: Build a frame Step 3: Create meaning through discipline Step 4: Craft your ritual Step 5: Recruit lieutenants Step 6: Be obsessive

so not only are they max culting it outright, they're not even bothering with the usual twenty-thrine inner circles bullshit before giving the game up? amazing

ah, Urbit is that kind of hallucinogenic suicide cult

a reminder that this isn’t the first time Tlon and the Urbit community have incubated a suicide cult

I’m tempted to post this “fanzine” (fan of what? flavor-aid?) to the orange site to see how the cult responds to their pamphlets getting too much attention, but I’m fairly sure the post will get killed by the mods there within minutes

Secret societies on a non-secure network…

How to start a cult:

1. Cut a hole in a box

This is some unsettling shit (read until the end)
