I always ask the question ' what is the smallest amount of people that can constitute a cult?'.

Some people say three,

others say two,

many more say a larger number than that.

Nobody says one.

It reveals something about the idea of a cult.

I feel like a cult needs to have follower(s)

It does of course.

Are cult members prisoners would you say?

Without followers they’re loan wolves.

Followers follow until they can’t be led any further, so I wouldn’t say they’re prisoners but I’m sure leaving a cult is harder than entering.
