Text reads: Join us September 16 at 9 am PT / 12 noon ET for the live premiere of our next lecture about the language of cults. We'll learn how linguistic tricks often used in cults (and cult-ish communities from fitness to fandoms) are so effective because our brains are hardwired to fall for them. Evolutionary features that served us for millennia are clashing with the modern era when we are increasingly exposed to, and influenced by, complicated mazes of buzzwords, mantras, euphemisms, clichés, and redefinitions.

@hankgreen.bsky.social Does crashcourse/complexly have a bluesky? I got a youtube notification about the Crash Course lecture on the Language of Cults on Tuesday Sep 16th Noon ET and I think people here would be interested
