      i mean all cult leaders are more nuanced than the average person gives them credit for. people can do horrendous things while still being complex, having good intentions (not saying Jones had those but ykiw), and etc. Jones was fucked up, but if you looked into some of his earlier ideas, i'm sure you'd be like "oh i agree with him." nothing is ever purely black and white!
