Grow the fediverse by embracing our cult tendencies?

I'm being somewhat serious.

We already have half a cult, since like a bunch of users on the fedi are the 1% of tech, and of that group, the 1% of privacy. Let alone talking about how fedizens are like the 5% income wise. Like occasionally a user comes in and says they're Muslim on Facebook and Christians fedizens spring out of the wood work telling them that fb bad.

The rightwingers grow entire movements by having Trump replace god (ex calling him god emperor Trump). Also Q, antivax stuff, manosphere, Bitcoin sphere.
