3. Endgame Scenarios: Explore the catastrophic consequences of cult loyalty tests and compare them to the symbolic sacrifices in established religions.
4. Societal Reflections: Engage in a lively discussion about the influence of media, politics, and online communities on modern cult-like behaviors.
