i may or may not have turned into a spawnist...

@Rusty most predatory online groups aren't joined for any particular reason other than the promised reason of social validation, which they then use to pressure victims into adopting whatever "normal" the group follows.

Yeah spawnism really relies on pressure to get people to join it. I forgot the exact way they did it, but I can remember watching videos about it and seeing that they're recruited members via pressure.

[Rusty]

It's just an awful thing around, there are no positives to it and there was no reason to unban it on this website. Especially if there's the possibility someone could be converted on here by another user

Yeah it's actually horrid and spawnism is a cult I recommend you stay away from because, Not trying to hate on it but it don't give you no eternal life and stuff like that, It has THAT on it, And there is no, "be careful" Nah it's all bad. Idk why it was unbanned cause it's actually horrible and literally Satan's child practically.

There isn't any real concrete definition on what is a religion, a cult, or just a weird group. I don't think the label that spawnism falls under should have any effect on how it's treated.

[Rusty]

I'd call it a cult

[HONEST.+-]

Yeah a cult would be a better way to put it no?

[Rusty]

Regardless of what it is, like internet said, the impact it has had is alot more important. However If you were to actually classify it as something, it would be a cult

The rules about spreading religion do nothing when people can peer pressure others into joining a literal online cult by making a topic that very subtly reads "i just became a spawnist." They also equipped a badge that literally reads "spawnist" that shows up on their every post, encouraging others to join, especially impressionable children who will keep reading that badge over and over then eventually give into the pressure. There are also lurkers on this website, so the negative effects aren't even fully known.

Other members also reinforce being in the group as shown by this post, like the upvotes and the other members conveniently hanging around the post, especially TwoTimee as an example, really trying their best to say how great it is that they are now a member of a literal cult.
