But something being "a bad thing" is just too subjective.
Many people are dedicated to "bad things" without it being cult like at all.
For example people who eat meat (wait no that's like a cult) or people who oppose the metric system (cult) or people who prefer π over τ (nope clearly a cult)... hmmm...
Litterally everything I disagree with is a cult!
Or maybe cults are something else entirely.
It has much more to do with falsifiability, child indoctrination, and deliberate exploitation by cult leaders.
Counterpoint: being dedicated to a bad thing is a cult, being dedicated to a good thing is not.
