ZENDIK - PART I

Oct 02, 2005 07:12

This is a story about mind control.

It is 100% true, to the best of my recollection. If and when I have to fill in the blanks with speculation, I'll mark it as such.

Summary - In August of 2000, I spent a week at a commune in North Carolina with my friend Rahn. They turned out to be a cult. They fucked up my head. Five years later, I'm finally ( Read more... )

That's just fucked up shit, Luka. Fucked up shit. I can see how you got suckered in, though. If I hadn't already known it were a cult, from the site... FUCK I woulda been wanting to go. They make it look good, right? But that's what cults -do-, innit?

Fucked. Up. Shit.

This is a really interesting story. Looking forward to more!

Wow, interesting. But LJ-cut please? It's making my friendslist stretch.

For you, duck, anything!

Sorry bout that :)

Thank you ^_^ and it's OK. My old friendspage layout wasn't too bothered by long entries, but my new style set (Quite Lickable) does seem to be thrown off a bit by them. It's weird. . .

Absolutely captivating. The story would probably be intriguing anyway simply because this kind of shit wigs me out, and knowing you makes it yet more interesting. But your style of writing is fantastic as usual. I know you are a comic artist, Luka, but please dear god tell me you also want to be a novelist. We could use one like you :P

*blush* I actually have been bitchslapping myself around lately for not writing more.

I'm joining nano, though! This WILL be a new leaf, dammit!

Oh man, you ain't heard the worst about Zendik yet. Wait til I tell you about what they did to Kanton.... *shakes head*

NaNo?! :D SO EXCITED :D :D :D

O.O Christ almighty. This is already wigging me out here. Thank the gods you got out of it.

What makes me sad is that, when I was there, there were at least a dozen 'lifers' who had totally bought into it and had been there 10, 20 years.

They didn't seem glazed over or stupid at all, just very very sincere and totally fucking elitist.

Only about two or three of the ones I met are still there today. What the hell?

I can almost (<--Keyword) understand why they would want to stay. They feel like they belong somewhere and that's all that matters to them. Even if that means cutting off family and friends, or being humiliated in front of others.

Ever hear of The Family? Almost the same as this Zendik farm, only more disturbing in that they are a bunch of pedophiles.
