Part Two: The Zizians: Birth of a Cult Leader

But there's another exercise they did next called doom circles. Quote, there were doom circles where each person, including themselves, took turns having everyone else bluntly but compassionately say why they were doomed using blindsight.

Some people brought up that they felt like they were only as morally valuable as half a person. This irked me. I said they were whole persons, and don't be stupid like that.
