“The nature of psychological compulsion is such that those who act under constraint remain under the impression that they are acting on their own initiative. The victim of mind-manipulation does not know that he is a victim. To him the walls of his prison are invisible, and he believes himself to be free. That he is not free is apparent only to other people.” —Aldous Huxley

“A company of believers is like a prison full of criminals; their intimacy and solidarity is based on what they can least justify about themselves.” —John Updike

“You have to quit confusing a madness with a mission.” —Flannery O’Connor

This ebook, an exclusive only available in its entirety with a Free 7-Day Trial or paid subscription at solluckman.substack.com, more or less “wrote itself,” as often happens with my books.

It came about, in its initial form anyway, as a series of interrelated articles on cults and cultism that just sort of came to me while contemplating how the “reality” Gameboard functions and that I decided to publish on my Substack over the summer of 2023.

Let me tell you, those articles dissecting the workings of the World Cult in general and “truther” cults in particular were like a series of hornet’s nests tossed into the managed minds of the cultocracy.

Stung cultists emerged from the shadows like MKUltra-activated trolls defending their unquestioned beliefs (often, it would seem, following direct orders from their cult leaders) with a bewildering barrage of lies, insults, threats, shaming, labeling, libel, slander, scapegoating, and other lowbrow alternatives to thinking.

“Even in human life we have seen the passion to dominate, almost to digest, one’s fellow,” wrote C. S. Lewis, “to make his whole intellectual and emotional life merely an extension of one’s own—to hate one’s hatreds and resent one’s grievances and indulge one’s egotism through him as well as through oneself. His own little store of passion must of course be suppressed to make room for ours. If he resists this suppression he is being very selfish.”

My response posted on social to this sad monster mash of (mostly) messenger attacking mixed with message ignoring was neutral and to the point: “Good or bad, kind or mean, fair or not, any reaction on your part to my recent article series on the danger of (doomsday) cults means I’M OVER THE TARGET.”

Although I also gained my share of new readers and supporters, rare indeed was it that the indoctrinated took the time to eschew ad hominem insults (even if they read my material, which they hardly ever did thoroughly) and provide thoughtful criticism of my actual words; when they did, I took it to heart and scrutinized their viewpoint, occasionally going so far as to modify my own.

Throughout this unpleasant and frankly depressing experience, I imagined I felt somewhat like Thoreau marching to the beat of his own drummer even as his revolutionary ideas (which today seem so self-evident they’re hardly even radical) brought down on his own head the foaming at the mouth of his fundamentalist (read: cultified) Concord neighbors.

And like Thoreau, one of America’s (perhaps the world’s) greatest freethinkers and a personal hero of mine, I endeavored to take my own advice as provided herein: I went about divesting my person and energy to the best of my ability from every cult—large and small, obvious and hidden—I could before simply, having said my peace and closed the book on the subject in this ebook, turning and walking away.

The result of this summer (when I’d have gladly surfed more and cared less) wasted on today’s prophets of doom and their cult followings is THE WORLD CULT & YOU, where I’ve greatly expanded on my initial article series and also included four additional chapters (two completely new and previously unpublished in any form) for your consideration. I’ve also added a large number of new original memes to further illustrate and nuance this material.

With luck this ebook won’t be wasted on you. May your own mind greet this collection of thought experiments as we’d do well to greet each day: open to the possibility of learning something new and changing our lives for the better.

ABOUT SOL LUCKMAN …

A confessed beachaholic and obsessive cultural creative, Sol Luckman has thumbed his nose at mainstream values and society ever since he can remember.

Preferring hard play over a so-called honest day’s work, these days in the New Abnormal he spends his time on a new small island mostly bodysurfing, painting, and writing—not necessarily in that order and usually not all at once.

How while on permanent vacation he became a multi-award-winning and international bestselling author and prolific professional artist is anyone’s guess.

Possessed of a wonderful family, he eschews dogs and admits to his own rejection issues where certain other domestic animals are concerned.
