The Anti-Cult Movement that supports 'brainwashing' theories in North America appears to be dead, but Barry is trying to keep it alive in France. Go figure.
The Anti-Cult hoax is dead due to a combination of public awareness of high-profile, illegal deprogramming efforts by some anti-cult groups, and a rejection by professional mental health organizations. Barry's 'trigger' finger pointing at the TMers as being cultists is not working - he should try a thumb-screw on us, if he wants real cult coercion. LoL!

Others are being mentally programmed to perform specific functions when triggered by a sound, image, color, etc. Still others are being tortured by rays transmitted from overhead spy planes." 10 current hoaxes: http://religioustolerance.org/psy_hoax.htm The Anti-Cult Movement in North America appears to be dying, due to a combination of public awareness of high-profile, illegal deprogramming efforts by some anti-cult groups, and a rejection by professional mental health organizations.
