How Devotees Are Brainwashed Into Fandom


•Systematically create a sense of powerlessness in the person
•Control the physical and social environment; control the devotee’s time
•Keep the person unaware of what’s going on & how he is being changed step by step
•Manipulate rewards, punishments and experiences to check the expression of the person’s former identity
•Manipulate rewards, punishments and experiences to promote conformity
•Set a closed system of logic, a hierarchy permitting no feedback, with top-down orders
