based on what I know of "new age" cults these two things are not always mutually exclusive
ask anyone from an older generation who lived through the late 1960s/early 1970s as a young adult...
in the modern era I'd wager there's some degree of venn diagram overlap between MLM recruitment and "open relationship" people too
actually as I recall an example of this was shown in entertainment media in the 1999 movie "Go" where a cop and his wife are also running a MLM thing and try to recruit/sleep with one of their targets
- tonyarkles 5y agoMy wife and I generally ask: Were they: 1. Trying to sleep with me/you/us? 2. Trying to get us to join their church? 3. Trying to get us to join their MLM scheme? And that conversation always turns into “well maybe it was two from the list? Or maybe even all three!” We’ve definitely met MLM swingers and MLM church people, but I don’t know that we’ve ever met the trifecta!
