Someone Just Compared AA to a Gym… Seriously?!
In this episode of #CultyComments, we're unpacking a wild claim: that Alcoholics Anonymous is no more of a cult than a gym. 😳
I break down the real differences — including the shame, moral inventories, powerlessness, and threats of death — and share why this kind of ideology comparison is not just off, it's dangerous.
👉 If you’ve ever questioned AA or felt the residue of its ideology stuck in your head, you’re not alone. This episode is for those of us unpacking the thought reform and reclaiming our autonomy.
