No creepy, exploitative compound living? No rampant sexual abuse or taking of multiple wives by a charismatic leader? What kind of cult IS this anyway?
(It's definitely a cult though, and objectively weird. Just sounds relatively harmless)

I only realised it's 'Unarius' and not 'Uranius' after reading the full meaning. Lmao

And not to be confused with the Urantia Foundation.

How do people on this site openly acknowledge how corrupt, and vile the police organizations are, and yet still ignorantly believe the ATF’s (another govt backed gang) propaganda when it comes to the atrocities at Waco and Ruby Ridge? In both of those scenarios federal government agencies mentally tortured, and ultimately murdered innocent US citizens, and then painted these victims as evil monsters to trick the public into believing these reprehensible agencies were the good guys.
A content creator on youtube named Wedigoon has an incredible and intricate documentary on what REALLY happened at Waco, and it’s a must see for those who still believe the victims at Waco were crazy pedo cultist’s.

I mean at the very least cults are harmful because they'll drain money out of their followers to go to the leader/highest ups in the church.

I would have to agree. Definitely WEIRD, but overall harmless. I loved walking past the mural on the building and the window displays were always trippy. It fit right in with the rest of the odd shops on Main St.

Yeah, they’re pretty charming in their own way. Crazy, but apparently not harmful in the end.
robodrew t1_izxi32h wrote
They are spreading bullshit theories and calling it "science" without any evidence, which is harmful.

True, but they are small enough and inconsequential enough to pretty minimally harmful.
