      I actually might know this guy IRL. His methods are extremely similar, he was very generous with psychs through facebook, had a large private group, and everything started being centered around DMT and then once they used a good amount he would start making pamphlets, calling it a family, and continuing to grow until I left. This is exactly his style.

      @derpymule7977 3 роки тому +24

      Trust me, none of what he’d said up to that point was a red flag when it comes to Reddit. The userbase actively raises random people onto a pedestal all the time (Keanu Reeves being the best example), and Chris wasn’t even the first user to gain widespread popularity. (u/poem_for_your_sprog, u/Ramses_The_Pidgeon, and u/FucksWithDucks are all pretty well loved redditors for a lot of random reasons.)
      Incidentally, a good recent example is u/DeepFuckingValue, who sank a far too large amount of money into GMT stocks well before that whole fiasco went down, and when the value skyrocketed and he refused to cash in on the tens of millions he was making, the entire WSB subreddit basically worshipped him in a pretty similar manner to Chris, with common quotes like “if he’s still in I’m still in”.
      Reddit by itself is pretty much an ironic cult. It’s a common joke on the website to refer to the userbase as “the Reddit hive mind”, because pretty much everyone on there is the same type of person (that being young, progressive pseudo-intellectuals). The behaviour up until the cultish subreddit started was absolutely normal by the standards of the website, and honestly I wasn’t even at all surprised at anyone’s actions beyond that besides Chris’. The people saw someone giving out money and wanted in.
      Honestly I don’t think this detracts from Reddit itself. Obviously cults like this one might be dangerous, but people on the website are generally just smart enough to not let it spiral, hence the inevitable mutiny in the cantelmoism subreddit. Plus, nobody there takes themselves seriously enough to actually think the hero-worship is normal or good, and the people who take part in it are usually the ones making the most fun of it.

      Granted Reddit is much more PC nowadays and has became more of a forum for hipsters rather than neck beards but it's still baffling where it comes from and all of the fucked up shit are still going on on the website...

    Banning a community for being "unmoderated" basically means reddit wants to wipe it off the website, but doesnt have a good reason to.
    What they do is find any reason (no matter how small) to ban each individual moderator of the subreddit, and then turn around and ban the subreddit for being "unmoderated"
    EDIT: And I actually would back reddit in this situation, I just wanted to mention that it was a thing.

      Reddit constantly makes up the rules as they go along. The only real rule is "engage in the group think."
      For example Reddit doesn't tolerate 'hate speech'.
      As a part of not tolerating 'hate speech' Reddit allows communities like r/FragileWhiteRedditor to target people based on race and use racial slurs like "cracker".

      On the discoveries tab it also says aliens will release an unstoppable and lethal worldwide plague, if we don’t stop polluting, warmongering, and overpopulating. Strange coincidences or just confirmation biases because we can see it happening now and look back, I’d have to see when he first said these things and if it’s more of a “if you say a bunch of shit some of it is bound to come true” scenario. I’m leaning towards the latter but it is weird how some stuff he said is seemingly coming true, albeit without the aliens.

    This.... Literally fits the BITE model, if these claims are true.
    For those who don't know, the BITE model is a guide created by Steven Hassan to, in their own words, "describe the specific method that cults use to recruit and maintain control over people". It falls into 4 categories, those categories being Behavior Control, Information Control, Thought Control, and Emotional Control.
    Behavior: Modifying behavior through rewards and/or punishments. This was done through gilding posts, giving monetary gifts, paying for plane rides, or even paying for college of those who were considered to be particularly devoted.
    Information: Discourages outside information, particularly about DMT and cancer. divides info into "insider and outsider doctrine" . Basically, saying "we have the correct information, everything you've heard elsewhere is wrong". Creation of propaganda (the fake news publications, the podcasts, basically everything created to promote these beliefs would be considered propaganda. honestly, you could probably consider the whole subreddit to be propaganda), encouraging others to keep an eye on each other and use peer pressure to prevent people from doubting or leaving the group,
    Thought: Mind-altering Practices such as excessive meditation, chanting, and speaking in tongues, rejection of critical thought or analysis (anyone who criticized the group would receive death threats). Encouraging an Us vs. Them mentality,
    Emotional: Controlling people through feelings of guilt and shame, showering people with praise or affection in a practice called "love-bombing", creating a fear of leaving the group (think of that guy who got doxxed and recieved death threats because he left), and shunning of people who leave.
    Many of these are textbook examples, and there very well could be some I missed. If anyone wants more information, you can check out the Freedom of Mind website. It's the best source of information on the BITE model, since the organization was founded by Steven Hassan himself.

      @@lzeph that's why I'm starting to think that liberalisms' sole claim of certaintity through sole individualism is somewhat wrong. Maybe human societies are naturally inclined to what you call cult behaviour and because the status quo enforces atomized individualism, whenever one arises it brings in so many people. On the other hand maybr because individualism acts like a filter, only the craziest cults get through.
      TL;DR- maybe BITE model is flawed on a cultural and philosophical level

    • @lzeph
      @lzeph 5 років тому +1

      @@@johng8837
      When extremists use these tactics (such as described in the BITE model), an unhealthy rift is created that pits the 'us' of the group against the 'them' outside the group. Group members are encouraged to perceive themselves as 'special' and 'better' than those outside the group who are viewed with hostility. Inside the group, members who don't fit the mold are punished and sometimes driven out. It's destructive and vicious, and it's effective because group leaders are willing to cause damage in order to gain power and control.
      I'm not sure what you meant by 'liberalisms' sole claim of certainty through sole individualism', but I kind of doubt the liberals have cornered the market on unreasonable, extremist assumptions or that all liberals or all conservatives think alike. Talk with individuals from both persuasions and you'll see a lot of crossover on that front. 'Us versus them' raises its ugly head in all walks of life, yes?
      Individual and social/societal needs are most effectively met when approached with balance, which would include methods of problem solving and social strengthening that are built, first, on what we have in common. As long as we continue to divide ourselves, no solutions or social strength can be obtained.

      Because free money is free money. A lot of people won't look into something if they gain something out of it. Besides, they probably just thought that it was some psycho which knew that was he was preaching was fake and not some mentally unstable person. Although, I can't confirm that.
      There were probably a few people that were concerned but were so put off by his behaviour that they felt uncomfortable trying to help.

When I joined there were a few comments saying that Chris was mentally insane and they always got downvoted to shit, but after a while most of us realized that the comments were a reasonable and as more and more people started realizing the truth Chris spent less and less money on guilding (while he did buy stuff for people with real money. One of the last posts I remember was of someone claiming Chris bought them a new Mac, but in might have been one of Chris alts) anyways towards the end the sub essentially completely turnt against him and he got banned so the guilds completely stopped, leading to the sub essentially dying
