Doesn’t it? Because is it crazy if it worked? I would go for “evil” or “corrupt.” But “lunatic” indicates they aren’t successful, and I think you’ll find that they were given special access to the government, and you and I weren’t.
Bro, I lived the video. When you’re in that world, it seems totally normal and logical. I’m telling you, they are many things, but crazy is not one of them.
Actually, let me tell you what they are. The guys at the top are grifters. The guys below that are borderline narcissists who due to trauma are drawn to high-control religion. The majority of the followers are sincere believers, if highly manipulated, who actually live according to a moral code.
The followers are often taken advantage of by the leaders, but “high-control” means that most have limited access to information and alternative perspectives that might change their worldview.
And particularly if the followers were indoctrinated as children, they actually have an underdeveloped sense of self and understanding of the world. The result is very similar to trauma and brain damage.
