In what ways do you think they're similar to other violent extremists (white nationalists or Muslim terrorist organizations) and in what ways are they different?
I would say that they are similar to violent extremists are they alienate their members and the leader has total control over their lives. The idea that they are a "special" group with a secret agenda shared is one of the steps towards extremism. I don't think they are very different since they end up in the same ending with a violent incident like the bombing.
Well, actually I think most cults are about giving money to the leaders and escaping government regulations. I feel like the members don't realize until it's too late and by then nothing can change it.
