Breaking (thread):CW: death, cult abuseAt least one person is dead after a hostage situation at a house occupied by members of "Black Hammer Party", the current name being used by the Black Hammer Cult— Dirty South Right Watch (@DSRWnews) July 19, 2022
Today in "Weird shit happened but the details are sketchy and unclear"
I would not call them organized. More like driven by uncontrollable megalomania. They were losing members and having other chapters disaffiliate with them for months to the point they were having to trick homeless people into fundraising for them by the end. There was no long term strategy.
Fair. Still dissatisfied with the state of the left in terms of organization when compared to cults like this. My city doesn’t even have a DSA chapter.
"org" is really not the right word for Black Hammer, the whole thing is essentially a 60s style New-Age cult with updated language.
They’re still more organized than the principled left. Shameful.
