    You'll never, ever, change the pov of a cultist if you reveal yourself as an outsider. You have to play the angle of being one of them or being undecided. It helps if you're genuine about it and make yourself open to their ideas.

    That being said, some people are illogical and can only be convinced out of a cult by using the same faulty logic that'd got them in. E.g: "Trump is deep state controlled opposition's but he doesn't know.".

      I don’t think I probably need to say this but, be careful about opening yourself to cult logic if you’re not steady in your own beliefs.

      This is how you flip fence dwellers into cult followers js.
