What were the pieces that hooked them?

Dr. Steven Hassan: Are You In a Cult?

And the technique, I'm jumping ahead and I'll circle back to your earlier question, but the technique that's most effective is I empower my clients to understand Chinese communist brainwashing, my model, etc.

What Now? with Trevor Noah
Dr. Steven Hassan: Are You In a Cult?

And the technique is this simple.

What Now? with Trevor Noah
Dr. Steven Hassan: Are You In a Cult?

I ask people to go back to that critical earlier moment when they were getting recruited or they were falling in love with someone who was a malignant narcissist that was going to ruin their lives.

What Now? with Trevor Noah
Dr. Steven Hassan: Are You In a Cult?

If you knew then what you know now, what would you say and do differently?

What Now? with Trevor Noah
Dr. Steven Hassan: Are You In a Cult?

And I have them reprocess because they didn't know what they didn't know.

But if I knew it was the Moonies, that this fat Korean billionaire was a pervert and involved with the Korean CIA and the Washington Times, etc., I would have said, you're not students.

So the key is, once you're out, is deconstructing the programmed identity by going back to critical moments and rewiring using neuroplasticity and neurogenesis, saying, if I knew then what I know now, here's how I would have handled it or could have handled it or should have handled it.

What Now? with Trevor Noah
Dr. Steven Hassan: Are You In a Cult?

Because then it empowers you going forward into the future to not get taken again with those techniques.

What Now? with Trevor Noah
Dr. Steven Hassan: Are You In a Cult?

And the key is the locus of control has to be in you, not looking outside to some authority figure or ideology to tell you what reality is or what the beliefs are.

What Now? with Trevor Noah
Dr. Steven Hassan: Are You In a Cult?

Yeah, they were targeting you.

What Now? with Trevor Noah
Dr. Steven Hassan: Are You In a Cult?

It was the ideal recruitment.

What Now? with Trevor Noah
Dr. Steven Hassan: Are You In a Cult?

Yeah, they were trying to recruit you.
