Cultos: A Linguagem do Fanatismo

Her focus on language use is unique, but I'm curious what inspired her to connect linguistics with cult psychology. Did she have a specific case in mind?

The way words are used to manipulate or unify groups really made me think about everyday language. I wonder if this awareness changes how we interpret conversations.

Some groups seemed harmless while others had more insidious language patterns. Did the book make anyone else consider the impact of speech in group dynamics?
