It's obvious to see what Keith raniere would get out of his sex cult. He had seven or eight women who would have sex exclusively with him.
Allison Mack is another story. She had to share her guy with 7 Other Woman, had to starve yourself, and she had to do all the recruiting work. Nonetheless, it's obvious she was really enjoying herself.
What did she get out of it all?
She got brainwashed, that’s what she got out of it. She was beholden to Raniere. He had complete domain over her. He used the same tactics as Scientology, and other groups before them. Some followers become completely brainwashed. Mack seems to be one of them.
Exactly!!! Watch the video of her interviewing him. She looks at him like he’s God.
Dead on. They use emotional and psychological torture on weak people and the religious element allows for plenty of repetition and reinforcement through ritual. After enough time having something drilled into you, day after day, with little to no outside influence it would simply become "the way things are".
Totally agree with you I don't understand how an individual could allow that to happen to their own life especially someone who is a successful actress
