I was thinking the same thing. She was the head of DOS under Raniere.

she lamented that she "may have to spend the rest of my life with Keith Raniere's initials seared into me."

Just like anybody who ever got a tattoo he or she regretted.

What he did is not as bad as cutting off someone’s gonads, but people are not going to prison for that.

But once ensconced in his orbit, many of the women were indoctrinated by Raniere,

Jerry: What do you mean you show up?

George: I show up. I pretend I have the job. The guy's on vacation. If I have the job, it's fine. If I don't have the job, by the time he comes back, I'm ensconced.

Jerry: Hmm. Not bad.

****

George: I gotta find a way to work this out, I love that apartment. It's so cozy, I'm ensconced in velvet. You know, if it were socially acceptable--

Jerry: I know, you would drape yourself in velvet.

George: I've said that before?

Jerry: Many times. You love velvet, you want to live in velvet, everything with the velvet.

All NxVIM had to do was get a psychiatrist to be its figurehead. Then they could have done far worse under the color of law plus get tax money for this “therapy”.

Yup. Too bad.

He gets the Ross Ulbricht treatment.

The sentence seems excessive, but I don’t mind too much. This guy was demonic and preyed upon vulnerable women.

Just heard our local talker say there was a movie made about this called “The Vow”. Anyone see it?

I went to youtube to hear this guy speak, to see how exactly he was so mesmerizing, that attractive, wealthy (and stupid) white women would drop their panties and open their checkbooks for this him

After the 3rd video of this effeminate turd cooing cheesy new-age cliches and phony “self help” psychology, I had to stop and could only shake my head in disbelief.

Wasn’t it as much a MLM cult as a sex cult?
