It's 4th Tuesday, and our focus is on cult kids, aka adult children of cults.This time, extending the chat from Ep. 68, we'll keep going with how music is used in cults, and how it goes directly to the brain and how it does that.

Alrighty. Incidentally the leader of the AUM cult and several of its members

Frankie Files Podcast ·

2023/06/06

It's 1st Tuesday, all about coercion. This episode is a report from direct experience which has taken me a lifetime to understand. NLP, Mandalas, Psychology and drawing were used to control me, even after I left. I was programmed to do if for them. That is pretty hard to accept but I can confirm now that this was happening. The learning is never ending when it comes to NLP, the subconscious, self hypnosis and devious witchcraft executed by a self serving destructive cult leader: This one, Sri Donato

*Researched Essay* It's 1st Tuesday, and that means the topic is coercion. Human trafficking is one of the most prevalent and destructive forms of coercion to hit children and adults in the United States. It wasn't even made illegal until 2000. What? Yeah. Most people have a lot of ideas about what trafficking is but cannot recognize it while it's happening. Here, I outline how it may be in your own backyard (hint: it is) and what you can do to silently protest: don't participate in the destruction
