Mastering Inauthenticity and Coercion with NXIVM's Keith Raniere

We kick off cult season by dissecting a promotional interview where Allison Mack (NXIVM then-high-ranking-member) gushes over Keith Raniere, the “self-improvement” guru who managed to manifest a 120-year prison sentence for his abusive cult shenanigans. In the interview exchange, you can detect some of the features that allowed NXIVM to escalate from Executive Success courses to branding rituals, starvation regimes, and sexual coercion. Get ready to thrill at Raniere’s pseudo-profound style with liberal heapings of decorative academic references and philosophy name-drops, semantic fog style waffling, and therapy-judo questions. It's all rather similar to the usual guru rhetoric, but also quite a bit worse.
