Is _that guy_ a cult leader?

This can be evaluated with two relatively straightforward questions:

Who pays his wages?

Who sucks his cock?

If he's paid by someone who gets value for his work, he's probably normal.

the cult leader gets paid by his _followers_.

(If the followers make _donations_ to a charity that employs the cult leader, that still counts.)

@scottalexander I guess if I'm gonna give it to Rock Stars, then Substack Writers have to get it too.

Congratulations on your promotion! 😂
