Who is Keith Raniere, the founder of NXIVM: Part 2

[@luked.4131]

How was this a part 2? ABC, you basically showed the same information as part 1. Not informative. Thumbs down.

[@MyrtleBeachWebAngel]

I know, right?!

[@Alexander-mg4pr]

fake news

[@edenbeliever2662]

With new age shit it only goes so far because it's not new it's a way to divide people having them believe that it's a spiritual connection to the universe, people should be themselves not who or what others think they should be

[@Siggy_Sour]

excatly because they are part of this whole thing

[@kelly3014]

The whole episode is on Hulu, if you have it.

[@Anne_one]

Girl, you should have known he was lying when he said he had a 240 IQ. Albert Einstein only had an IQ of 160.

[@peppapig-mf4cs]

I know hilarious!😉😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂plus he was dyslexic...

[@tarathehookaah3745]

Nnenna A It's actually true...well, sort of! He has increased that number himself, it seems, over the years. But, I believe it was sometime in the 90's, he is in the guiness book of world records for his IQ! He has certainly squandered it tho! This guys is a real sicko!

[@djkoz78]

She left her husband and guaranteed fucked him over in court for this sociopath. Hey grass isn't always greener.

[@cheyennetoo]

Nnenna A 100%

[@jonathantan2469]

Come on. Lots of naive young Westerners & Easterners actually believe that some Indian yogis can fly.

[@angelabuxton3683]

Sounds like Scientology

[@romant142]

Angela Buxton yeah

[@robertjohnson1261]

I thought the same thing. Like "audits", where you spill all your secrets on tape so they can blackmail you if they need to. Also all that "change the world" mentality, all the secrecy, the belittling, torture and control. We just watched Wild, Wild Country on Netflix about the cult in Oregon. Ya gotta watch it to see some crazy stuff!

[@cammbello]

I was thinking that whole time while watching . & how they go after Hollywood Actors

[@kimreid5255]

No that's just another cult lol

[@MyrtleBeachWebAngel]

I just wrote the same thing! Jinx Pinx!

[@ccchhhrrriiisss100]

This man doesn't have a "240 I.Q." He simply had an I.Q. higher than his victims.

[@lisalynn1]

That is an impossible IQ. Just another lie he told.

[@heatherfeather9951]

It didn't have to be that high then.

[@mariadefatimagigeck1577]

Exactly

[@Jaqen-HGhar]

of course he didn't, I.Q. isn't a legit thing.

[@j.d.t.5761]

Mostly, from what I've seen about Keith Raniere. It's mainly his demeanor, not his intelligence. From his eye contact and his body language; he's just trying to let your guard down and make you feel relaxed, like a hypnotist. It is also the way he delivers his rhetoric, which if you actually pay close attention to him, it's mainly "you're depressed, and demand an answer as to why you're depressed". It's no different from what gurus would say. He just says it in an "analytical, descriptive" way.

[@RaimonTarou]

if NXIVM really wanted to spread truth and help people, they'd do it for free. The fact that they will only help you if you pay them should've rang alarm bells from the start.

[@danaprovenzano3961]

I’m not sure it’s a bad thing to help people in exchange for a fee, as it might give a center the capability to help more people and for them to dedicate all of their time to their cause . But the costs of their workshops were outrageous !! Certainly took advantage of people who were desperate for help. It seems whenever an individual is given too much power they ALMOST always take advantage and become corrupt

[@MattShumate]

This is part 1 with an extra few sentences added.

[@lisalynn1]

Ty

[@onyx666.]

thanks!

[@fabioalvesshow]

The actress of Smallville really loved the Kryptonian alphabet, so much that she want to put into this womans

[@peterbonaventure36]

I can't figure out how intelligent people could fall for this without their inner alarm bells ringing wildly.

[@christinesantoro3214]

Intelligence has nothing to do with common sense.

[@hannaford111]

I try not being judgmental of people. I just know in my case, I probably wouldn't fall for something like this since I've done a lot research into cults like Mormons, Jenova's Witnesses, Scientology, etc. They're all very similar.

[@beaniegirl55]

Because the curriculum rewires your brain to make you shut of you gut. Also intelligent people are the most susceptible to cults. Dumb people are actually bomb proof with cults.

[@lisalynn1]

Wait Consumers Buy Line sounds a lot like Groupon. Right?

[@Ved000000]

He looks like he'll be popular in prison.

[@abeolivares2879]

Do u really have to repeat half the story from part 1?

[@nadielise2975]

Abe Olivares yes cause some ppl didn’t watch it

[@alysiamerdavid-wasser9165]

From the comments, i'm not sure part 1 is tbc here..EDIT: Yeah, nothing abt A. Mack. OR the story of one mother's desperate struggle to get back her daughter...

[@jkl799]

Yikes... He has them believing that he is the smartest man in the world. LOL... He is a creeper

[@danielcuevas5899]

Never trust someone with a coconut head.

[@fidneusdiller2486]

I'll keep that in mind Daniel, thanks.

[@stellaresairo3411]

He'll be wearing orange jumpsuits in a few years

[@THEKITPLUG]

lol well, looks like you called it a few years early.

[@higsgirl]

Stella Resairo Only 3 months later.... He's wearing one! SO GLAD!!!

[@DR_Neal_Rigger]

Stella Resairo , You were early👍..

[@DR_Neal_Rigger]

Franz Farmer , Hey ... suck it!!

[@Enzorgullochapin]

Here is a current headline about a cult: nypost.com/2018/03/27/cult-leader-accused-of-keeping-women-slaves-appears-in-court/ Nxivm leader Keith Raniere appeared before a judge in Fort Worth

[@jilllovesbeegees70]

People want to belong, have a purpose, but they just cant follow Christ. Yet he is the answer.

[@leeanngraham5035]

He is the way, the truth and the life!! Amen !

[@maiseelauj]

They couldn't have just went to a church for free.

[@Moviefan2k4]

Sadly, the Christian church has not helped its cause in recent years, while the media continues to highlight the few who destroy their own witness. If you don't grow up with faith, and all you know about Jesus Christ is some of His "followers" having epic fallouts...you're not going to trust Him or the church.

[@sarahhunter1114]

Moviefan2k4 true. It is so important to ask for guidance when seeking out a church. It needs to teach the true doctrine of Jesus Christ, encourage repentance, and a personal relationship with the Messiah himself.

[@sarfaraz.hosseini]

It depends on the church. Quite a few preachers have been caught with their pants down, and fingers in the till, with few consequences.

[@Famegonna9999]

I believe they ask for money at church and do just as much brainwashing

[@katiekat4457]

That’s brainwashing too. Not as dangerous but you are financially supporting many, many people and structures. But you are scared to even think about whether God is real or not. If you think or question God or Jesus an internal alarm goes off and you immediately feel guilt and have that feeling that God and Jesus knows what you are thinking so you think in alignment right away to make up for it. Not your fault. How can you question something that your parents got you into and that you have been surrounded with your whole life.

[@RobertAnderson1]

"Kristin Snyder's body was never found." "HI EVERYONE GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS HERE THANKS FOR CHECKING THE ABC NEWS KZbin CHANNEL IF YOU WANT TO WATCH MOER STUUFFF CLICK HERE HERE AND HEREE" Good transition ABC KZbin Channel; very cool.

[@KZ-gi7ey]

Toni Natalie is such a warrior! ❤ her!

[@yva91]

Where is part 3?

[@134BrothersMusic]

I'm sorry life, I didn't know I was already dead.. ouch

[@lastsamuri1111]

Off to jail he goes......

[@cecilyworley8424]

Why has no one gone into the story of Kristin Snyder or the other women that were killed or "disappeared" ?

[@camoaesthetics]

This man really was smart. Anyone who is effectively able to brainwash a group of people knows a little more than you'd be comfortable knowing. Thing is he was smart beneficial only to him in his own narcissism.

[@dreaminginnoother]

this segment is less part 2 and more like part 1.5

[@theonejokeking3191]

Isn't this the same as part one?

[@djkoz78]

This is literally the same exact video of part 1

[@greggn2004]

I could say they made their own decisions but when your at your lowest point you tend to make a lot of bad decisions.

[@michaeledwards8216]

"SOMEBODY SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVE ME!!!!!!"

[@UrrmmWut...]

lmao scientology number 2

[@laurenzama9332]

sounds like SCIENTOLOGY

[@Dragonfly5455]

Sounds like Scientology II... The new LRH...

[@garlandremingtoniii1338]

Gail Clark It is almost a carbon copy

[@ElDonWillie]

How do these successful people fall for this shit??? Ive never made over 24k a year and i would never fall for this

[@ccjohncc1]

Oh my God I thought they had already locked up this wacko narcissist!! About time!!

[@angiesima428]

j aime votre travail continuez !madame

[@katelynbrown98]

Honestly, he looks cute with his beard and chest hair, and I can see why people would join a cult in general, but I don't see why people followed in line with him. They don't tell any specifics about what he told/did to them that was so persuasive.

[@krackheadkola]

Part 2 is basically prt 1 again

[@jrcontreras7059]

Rainiere reminds me of the little nerdy kid that was not allowed to sit with the popular kids so he decided to start his own table of people with low self esteem.

[@yvonnetaylor9331]

Why is there an ad for another awful cult before an expose on an awful cult? Did anyone else get a Scientology ad? smh...

[@mayaooooooooo]

The promotional video reminds me of the movie Get Out :s

[@alysiamerdavid-wasser9165]

So, part 1 ends w/ a bumper of: ..And a mother's desperate struggle to get back her daughter.." but, what, abc? Just: "Nah, boring. Excise it?" And: In place of "Hollywood/actresses", use actresses no one has heard of from CANADA?? #WEAK

[@Huhwhatdidyousay]

America doesn’t want the population to be confident and self sufficient. The government loves this shit.

[@soaluc]

Also how weird is Allisson paying 5million bond... I mean she did smallville for some years but no way she has that kind of money lying around. Someone very powerful wants her out

[@notaclue822]

The Bronfman sisters funded Keith

[@GREENLALI]

Pretty much being an adult doesn't make you smarter. At what point do you forget to say this is bullshit

[@badgergadger]

The first four minutes is just a rehashing of Part 1. Good job ABC.

[@toruguineo]

Man this is some heaven's gate type of shit

[@KussePikken666]

All u need is to read Sigmund Freud folks.

[@ElSmusso]

Vargas - you’re great!

[@timbrady6473]

Where only women chosen,susceptible to this sales pitch?

[@geinikan1kan]

I get how this guy is a con artist, but can they put him in prison for the people who believed his bs? These, mostly women, believed this man and chose to do what he asked. That’s their problem as much if not more than his.

[@chasem8705]

From what I know of the details, it seems this man has integrated BDSM roles into his "cult", or whatever they prefer to call themselves, after indoctrinating women. As much as I hate to draw this parallel, as a practitioner of BDSM I feel I must help set the record straight as best I can... this is a gross perversion of the practice! He is not the first person, nor will he be the last, to use BDSM-style dynamics in a way that completely smears the entire community and takes advantage of vulnerable persons. So - to help clear the air for those who do not know better - what he has done is ENTIRELY inappropriate. The most important cornerstone of BDSM is INFORMED, RATIONAL and MUTUAL consent. By using coercion, blackmail and indoctrination this man has completely destroyed any form of consent he might have received. Branding, paddles, poly-relationships... all these things can be part of a BDSM dynamic, but none of it is acceptable in any way without true consent. Whether a person identifies as a slave, submissive, little, switch, dominant, daddy, master or any one of countless other roles within BDSM, informed and honest consent along with the ability for either party to say NO (possibly with the help of a safe word) when something suggested is not acceptable to that person is what holds the dynamic together and makes all the difference between consensual activity and abuse. It angers me deeply that people like this man warp BDSM into something truly sick, and use their practices to abuse others. When people use these dynamics to take advantage of others or as a guise for sex trafficking, it not only hurts the larger BDSM community but can seriously damage the victims not only physically but - more importantly - emotionally and psychologically! What this man has done is atrocious!

[@DavidKendallGoogle]

Be curious to know how many ABC executives used NXIVM's services? Further, be curious to know what they're leaving out of this video?

[@alcortez1261]

These girls pays you to be your sex slave? and they say prostitutes are dumb.

[@RichardsWorld]

He got lots of good punany. Now it is time to pay for it.

[@ilikemitchhedberg]

Ok, so he has a 240 iQ... but can he understand Rick & Morty? 🤔

[@donaldcertano3091]

I Don't hear a single crime hear....it sounds like they they ask all of the women to do this and they did this willingly then regretted it, you can't hold someone responsible for a bad decision they all made.....no one was forced, no drugs were used to influence them and they weren't held against there will, there just weak willed people that regretted there decisions. When do we hold people responsible for making there own mistakes. Scientology isn't under arrest for there scamming people why are these people. All of the sound like there are winning about being to weak of a person to just walk away and say no. PLEASE!

[@greggn2004]

You sound like a member, watch the case unfold and you will see the difference between personal decision and blackmail.

This guy’s words sound like a poorly written soap opera script. As do Mack’s.

[@danapoint6273]

Someone pls wake me up !!! This is to much to take!!!! I guess I am not ready to hear the truth!

[@ruhap9311]

I can understand getting too involved in something and it effecting you negatively, any social structure even a bad relationship. However, these dramatic results seem to be more particular to women and their openness. Maybe a woman can explain this a little to me. Is it more the group structure, the validating talk, or what??? because these cult guys aren't that impressive.

[@laurabrady84105]

ruha p Where are you getting the information on how many women vs men fall prey to cults and other group think? I'd like to read the study!

[@IaMoDiNaRy]

It was PURE stupidity !

[@RowanWarren78]

He has now been arrested

[@Aprinsa]

He definitely comes off as charismatic to me like he’s a good actor as good as Allison Mack. But his actual words are pure fluff

[@jordanlego]

This is so redundant from pt 1 it’s awful.

[@DR_Neal_Rigger]

Well "vanguard" .... that's not a nod to the radical revolutionary groups of the 20th century..

[@aelius93]

Theres no such thing as a 240 iq. The maximum highest possible an iq can be is 160.

[@nahuelcutrera]

I know but by the time they realize it's already too late ... he is a smart elusive son of a bitch that takes advantage of susceptible women. The women are not stupid, believe me I know, my mother is part of a cult, she is as smart as they come, an accountant verry succesful one, but some women are just susceptible to that kind of manipulation and no matter how hard you tried you cannot pull them out. It's the horror show I live here in south america.

[@MoizAudio]

Oh white folks..

"White Folks" also ENDED Slavery in America and attempted to do the same world wide. But "Other" ideologies today continue to enslave others worldwide. See Islam, aka HUGE Slave Traders. See Libya. HUMANS are prone to DOMINATION.

[@KaydanAidan]

I'd like to debate this guy on the merits of his self-help programs. Bro seriously, call you "Vanguard"? I'd laugh in your face.

[@Amber-tu2ol]

Secondly, how many "secrets" do these people have? I know there is no secret I have big enough for me to be blackmailed. I think they are all bad.

its just finding "special' people and telling them they are elite, they can have sex with everyone in the group and never feel guilt - pretty simple isn't it LOL not like founding a new human society that is a blessing to all NOPE quite the contrary
