The Invisible Cult in Your Language

Words are more than just communication tools - they're the architects of our reality. In "Cultish," linguist Amanda Montell reveals how specialized vocabulary creates the invisible boundaries that enable extreme influence. This isn't distant academic theory; it's woven through our everyday experiences. From fitness studios to social media communities, cultish language shapes our perceptions in ways we rarely notice. Montell's exploration is deeply personal, inspired by her father's teenage experience in the Synanon cult. Her investigation shows that the most dangerous form of mind control isn't hypnosis or brainwashing - it's the subtle manipulation of language that changes how we think, feel, and connect with others.
