The Followers: “Holy Hell” and the Disciples of Narcissistic Leaders: How My Years in a Notorious Cult Parallel Today’s Cultural Mania By Radhia Gleis. Radhia’s personal story and comprehensive knowledge along with her authentic and unfiltered humorous style presents a compelling portrayal of both the political and cultural dynamics of group-think and mind control.
After
twenty-five years of her adult life in a cult, under the influence of a
narcissistic sociopath she sought to understand why she made the choices she
made in her life, so she could better understand why others make their choices.
The Holocaust or any genocide instigated by a narcissistic authority does not
happen because of one man. It is the collective consciousness of their
followers that support and enacts those atrocities. Like Moonies under Sun
Myung Moon, Germans under the influence of Hitler, or the Branch Davidians
under David Koresh, a percentage of America has fallen into a cult of
personality.
Radhia
set out on a journey to explore common traits that every human being possesses.
She makes strong parallels between her devotion to a cult leader an
authority whose damaging behavior and influence she willfully ignored and the
followers of other authoritarian leaders. This is not about policy or political
ideology or even the guru or our political leaders, as much as it is about the
followers from the viewpoint of a follower.
My Opinion: I see here point of view of this book
and also know that mainstream media likes to have you live in fear and that is
the reason I will not watch a lot of news on TV as I am stronger than the lies
put in place by Democrats. This story of her life is awful and if you have
never recognized narcissists this book helps show some leaders that are and
some I disagree with.
