Doe: Is Raniere a parasite?
JOE DOE writes: It’s ironic how Raniere talks about parasitic lifestyles of suppressives. Terminology he’s ripped off from Scientology.

Reader rebuts Kreuk was enlightened by Raniere

When I worked at NXIVM, I well remember that members of Keith Raniere’s harem would weep about the injustices they felt Keith was enduring – such purity and goodness so misunderstood.
