Keith Reniere and NXIVM

[JackRabbit_Slim]

I just don't get it.. This guy just wanted to have endless snatch to smash and built a cult of women to do so.. But now he's in jail and people are talking shit on his great self help organization. I mean, I guess branding his harem with his initials might have been a little extreme but it's not like he forced them into it.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. amirite?

Exactly. Cults are always about volunteering.

And the hats... gotta have the hats.

can someone explain what this thread is about before FSF gets in here?

NVXIM, pronounced Nexium is a "self help organization" that is currently ensnared in a rather public unraveling which has it's leader currently in jail facing the possibility of life behind bars, and many high profile, rich and or celebrity members on both sides of the battle. Current members pitted against former members. It's something of a shit show and from what I've gathered about the group is that they seem to carry somewhat questionable ethical standards and are currently facing accusations of being a coerced sex cult complete with branding ceremonies and harems of sex slaves. Sex with underage girls, forced prostitution, racketeering, to name a few of the allegations against leader, Keith Reniere and a few of his highest ranking members. The trial begins soon.

All that said, I haven't seen any evidence that suggests anyone was forced into this in terms of the group. The underage shit is another matter altogether and it doesn't sound like he's being charged with that but possibly for the possession of child pornography.
