Boy have I got news for you.
Look up the Zizians.

What the fuck did I just read??
Check out the behind the bastards episodes on them. Shits crazy
Its so fucking crazy that it actually broke Robert Evans, who is primarily famous for learning, writing about, and presenting the most fucked up parts of history.
shit is so fucking insane, hard to believe. not gonna help us trans folk with the whole "this is just a mental illness" look either, especially with the "correlation is causation" attitude running so rampant these days.
honestly I get popping off once in a while but the reasoning is poor in this case. they could have done something more actually effective with all those resources and shit, why this?? I mean, I totally get cultism - I spent 16 years in a cult. but ugh what a waste.
