it's so fucked how often they're right to be suspicious about motives but only apply that suspicion to other industries or groups who aren't trying to trick them, and never their own, which are. I guess the first step a cult must take is immunize people against being affected by any other outside forces, malicious or not. they'll always implicitly trust the cult leaders who "let them in" on how their control works.
If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement (see rule 6)
