About this audiobook
In this book, you will learn more about the culture we live in today. Are we being brainwashed by the media? How is social media affecting us?
And with those two questions in mind, does this mean there are more narcissists today than ever before?
Not only are we going to dive into these specific topics, but we will also talk about real cults. Cults have existed for a long time. Some even see the relationship between cults and actual religions. But why are cults so dark and scary? How do cult leaders make people believe in something that is not true, or make them do things they would have never done before they were brainwashed?
Let’s take a look.
