i've been wanting to write about b3ta for a long timejust write about it, b3tan society, just for personal laughs, but i find myself completely unable to do so; i don't know where to start, for one thing.
then i have to remind myself that it's roughly equivalent to writing about all the in-jokes in high school; not really that amusing unless you were there.

I looked through the characteristics of a cult today with Mr. Horribleduring a discussion about b3ta and was slightly amused
* A powerful leader; Rob, for the most part
* Revealed scriptures or doctrine; FAQ
* Deceptive recruitment; Taggage on viral images
* Totalitarianism and alienation of members from their families and/or friends; first of all it's the internet, also, bashes
* The use of indoctrination, by sophisticated mind-control techniques, based on the concept that once you can make a person behave the way you want, then you can make him/her believe what you want; n00b tuesday
* Slave labour - that is, the use of members on fundraising or missionary activities for little or no pay to line the leader's pockets; ... this one we didn't come up with anything
Edit: making/finding things for the newsletter, ta Muu
* Misuse of funds and the accumulation of wealth for personal or political purposes at the expense of members; I paid for a donation icon...
* Exclusivity - "we are right and everyone else is wrong". well, we are.
