I just commented on Krugman's substack about Trump fleecing millions with his memecoins by referring him to your book THE CULT OF TRUMP. So predictable that those within the cult will buy anything suggested by the cult leader. Even L. Ron Hubbard remarked that getting rich was easy by creating a cult.
Every opportunity for Dr. Steven Hassan along with other accredited academics, educators at other levels and institutions such as Dr. Hassan's Freedom of Mind along with journalists reporting on the paper trails and other tracking of communicative trails of comparing, covering, evaluating the research and explicating Cults, Coercive Group Dynamics, along with the features of each while critiquing and comparing different practitioners and their hierarchies codifying and structuring exploitation of such Culture and cultural constructs contributes to our nation's defense system against such opportunistic practices of a free market and proper investigations and Public Interest maintenance of data bases of institutional and individual therapeutic trends and reports of professional malfeasance.
Social forces are then better positioned to challenge personally opportunistic practices in civil and criminal courts in addition to the court of public opinion. Namely, news reporting media venues and wherever academic structures for tracking and defending against such malefactors and anti-social exploitation by creating well vetted and maintained Data Bases for crime fighting, social defense of personal and institutional intervention as well as therapeutic treatment.

Individual and institutional pathways can include referencing such public resources as the platforms supporting the contributions of pioneers in the field such as a former educator of mine during my undergraduate studies at U.C.-Berkeley:
More such courses are being offered within accredited colleges and universities under Sociology Departments or interdisciplinary studies such as Social Psychology. Research and multi-source with proven vetting systems. Critical Thinking will be required.
