culto

A "cult" is a group or community with beliefs and practices that are often considered unconventional or not widely accepted. These groups typically revolve around a charismatic leader or shared ideology, which members follow closely. Cults often emphasize strong loyalty and may isolate members from outside influences. While some cults are harmless spiritual or social groups, others can be dangerous, engaging in manipulative, deceptive, or harmful behaviors. Understanding that the term can carry negative connotations, it’s important to approach such groups with critical awareness and consider their impact on individual members and society.
