Scandals with sex pests, minors kept in group houses, partnerships with ponzi scammers, orgies, grit sham charities that pocket the money, etc. isn't normal. It happens elsewhere, sure, but it's not normal. It's gonzo. But it's also not new, there are plenty of works of fiction with groups like this in them, perhaps inspired by actual experience with 1960s new wave and prior counterculture groups.
