The Dark Psychology of Cult Leaders Manson’s Methods Exposed

What makes a person follow a madman to the ends of the earth—and in some cases, to the point of murder? Charles Manson wasn’t just a cult leader; he was a psychological anomaly, a master manipulator with an uncanny ability to lure vulnerable people into his orbit. But was he truly a criminal mastermind, or just a delusional man who happened to find the right (or wrong) audience?

Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to dissect the mind of one of the most infamous figures in history. From his extreme personality disorders to the eerie way he could turn lost young people into devoted followers, this conversation dives deep into the psychology of control. Was Manson any different from gang leaders, military commanders, or radical influencers throughout history? And more importantly—could someone like him rise to power again today?
