NXIVM was an American sex cult that engaged in sex trafficking while claiming to be a multi-level marketing company. Based in Clifton Park, New York, a suburb of Albany, the group claimed to offer personal and professional development seminars through its "Executive Success Programs" of large-group awareness training.

The Garden, formerly known as Shut Up and Grow It, is commune that claims to be egalitarian, alternative, leaderless (leaderful), community, propagating a culture of sharing, freedom, and cooperation. But with recent traction on TikTok from user @treeisalive, users are now starting to believe this commune just might be that start of a cult like Jonestown or The Manson Family.... What do you think?
