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.)
@WomanCorn "Paid by his followers" - so are all Substacks cults?

@scottalexander I guess if I'm gonna give it to Rock Stars, then Substack Writers have to get it too.
Congratulations on your promotion! 😂
