Jim Jones
You fell for the psyop. Jonestown wasn't a religious enclave it was a communist one. And an enormous amount of time and energy was spent covering that up, and so everyone thinks it was some crazy Christian cult.
While it's pretty fucking awful to listen to, well, listen to the Jonestown audio. It makes it pretty clear.
Jonestown was literally founded as a place to live their perfect Communist utopia. A bunch of shit happened, and Jim Jones's enforcers ended up killing a congressman. Welp, Jim knew that that meant the USG was going to come absolutely fucking end them, so he gathered everyone together and busted out the Flavor-Ade.
The audio is like 10% religious and 90% him lamenting the failure of their communist dream. His #2 was some nigress and she talks about the horrors of 'racism' and 'capitalism' and that they all need to die to prove some kind of point.
And the first two barely count. Not sure why Aimee Semple is even on this list unless you are seriously intent on twisting the intent of the comic/llirrem's statement. And Elizabeth Clare Prophet was fairly harmless, just a moonbat who made people dig holes for an apocalypse that didn't happen.
All in all the point is that these kinds of people are ridiculously rare compared to how Le Enlightened Atheists like to pretend they are. Because guess what, it turns out getting a bunch of lunatics to go along with another lunatic is actually extremely hard to pull off which is why most lunatics are lone-wolf operatives.
Unless you count Pol Pot or North Korea as religious (communism can be a religion)
Literally all politics can be, religion is basically just a deeply-personally-held ethos.

Jim Jones doesn't belong on this list. Jonestown was a communist enclave and literally the stated reason for the mass-suicide/murder was because they killed a congressman and he knew the United States government was going to come absolutely obliterate them. The Jim Jones audio is like 10% religious and 90% about communist shitlib leftoid nonsense. His #2 was some nigress and she talks about the horrors of 'racism' and 'capitalism' and that they all need to die to prove some kind of point.
