REUPLOAD "How cults brainwash their members"

So that's the famous video! very interesting to see how much work you put into staying in character while being with these guys and how you manage to make the videos 'fun' to your audience. Great work! And shame on YT for banning this - then again, YT will turn into a cesspool of rich kids making jell-o pools and eventually, people will seek out 'real content' elsewhere. Or maybe everyone is being brainwashed :)

Noah was definitely not white.

Subscribed for this piece thank you

Gabriela Ramirez

Yo!!!! This is crazy! I recognize the “leader in the video and have actually visited the Morning Star Ranch where you stayed. I’ve been to their house in Vista too. It’s weird because and awesome you did this, because I heavily researched them years ago.

Brandon Boucher

Hey Ben! There was no way I was going to skip this video… Can’t believe YT took this down, they need to get on their shit. This series has me on the edge of my seat!!! Nobody is making content like this!! You and Danny and Lydia are not only brave for this but honorable. Cheers to taking these fuckers down

Emma

Ben you are the one of the best creators on YouTube I dont know how you don't have 20 million views per video. It's criminal you don't have more subscribers! Keep up the good work man and be safe

Lance Allen

it would help to share this far and wide if it wasn't paywalled. I'm supportive of what you're trying to do, but I want to share this with as many people as possible, and not everyone is going to want to set up a patreon account. :(

Matt Jolo

Hey dude, love your videos. Are you going to upload all the removed videos from your cult series here?

Taylor Webb

The woman who is nasty to the girl and who talks crap about being her grandmother, does she not look black to you, she seems to be to me at least partly?

andy b

What day of each week is a new addition to the cult series put up. Looking forward to it.

andy b

eff the man, let the reckless speak!

Overland Games

It’s a ton of work to make these episodes so they’re coming out one episode a week. This next episode talks about some gnarly things that’ll will probably get taken down from YouTube immediately, but Patreon seems to be fine with it.

Reckless Ben

same!

Alvaro S

What an ending lmao

Bottle Flipper Gamer

I thought the rest of the series was here on Patreon?

Mike

When is the next episode coming out? It's past due isn't it?

Galaksee

Wait I already saw this one

Andrew O'Neal

Someone get him clothes!

Nijahn Terramin

something like that

Ali Baba

Hi did Ben also make 5$ from you? 👹

lydia ren

This was the best video of the series. I appreciate how you are able to take on this serious topic.

DJ

Great video man

Spencer

Same :)

neil A

wait... no, that's not what i meant. I meant you catch more flies with honey, than death threats..

Overland Games

don't do this..... slackline's are really long, and cumbersome to get passed security, what you want is a puppy and a leash...

Overland Games

Have you thought about emailing Susan and threatening to choke her with a slackline if she doesn’t wise the fuck up? Wait, don’t do that. Still, this sucks man, seriously borderline criminal at this point.

Joseph Cooper

YouTube should be ashamed. In another time you would win an award for investigative journalism!

Apple Pug

Until we figure out this YouTube situation, we still need you in this world and creating content. What about massive blurred moments that say "YouTube will take this down over this part, subscribe to my Patreon"

JaredRocks

Keep it up! Cults need to be exposed you are doing something so amazing.

I’m looking forward to seeing more of this series

Obscurity Master

Blows my mind people can fall into this horrible brainwashing...

James Krechet Calvin

These people are absolute maniacs and this is true Journalism with a capital J. Thank you for your work Ben, you might actually save a bunch of brainwashed people from killing themselves.

BB

Just great stuff. Thanks for exposing these horrible people. Shame that YouTube doesn't support truly great content like this. I hope you're keeping up the series, even if it's only on Patreon. What you've achieved here is incredible.

Adrian Kattwinkel

I'm writing a screenplay about cults and your videos have been so useful for my own research. I love your approach and your style - I really admire what you do. Your work was so useful that I had to become a Patreon because fuck youtube. Love your work.

ZombiePeen

Became a patron just for this!

Nick Webs

this is great. Youtube is dying, in spirit at least.

Overland Games

Same

T

Keep it up dude

Ramey Savoie

Please don't stop this, this is doing so well at raising awareness.

Emily Kyer

I came to Patreon for this. This cult is crazy. Can’t wait to see more.

Bryson Wolf

Keep posting on Patreon dude imma keep supporting you

Peter Cimino

The story contained within this video series should be picked up by mainstream media outlets like 60 minutes. Absolutely spine-chilling and revealing. There's disgusting racism and religious indoctrination running deeply under a lot of American society. I understand Youtube's algorithm lacking a sense of irony, and the video being flagged first, but the idea that any modern human could watch this video and not understand the tone is insane. Great work, Ben. This seems like important and possibly dangerous work. Definitely worthy of support.

Matthew Nayman

How the fuck did this get taken down from youtube... you obv don't agree with them and things like this SHOULD be brought to light. Only thing that bugs me a bit is that you're making it too entertaining/silly (the glitch effects etc), but it isn't a big problem... Good job man, this is interesting as hell. I hope you are able to upload the other videos too, if not to youtube then at least here.

arg.entum

I even saw the video before it was taken down but I'm here to give you the money you deserve.

Nijahn Terramin

I became a patreon after they took this video down. F youtube.

Nijahn Terramin

F YouTube. I wouldn't miss this series for the world.

Jason Mylonakis

this is actually pretty smart 😳 ben should definitely make more use of shorts and tiktoks

Ali Baba

could have at least waited until AFTER thanksgiving to curse all the whites man not cool

Ali Baba

I feel so bad about that shit that went down with YouTube but on the bright side I’m sure I’m not the only one who swiftly subscribed to your patreon because dude you’re the realest and most hard channel I know of right now.

Jack Nielsen

Joined Patreon to support your endeavor in taking down these racist people. I can't believe how YouTube doesn't see this for what it is. Although my guess is they watched 5 minutes and as soon as the one dude started talking, that's when they made their decision. Fuck YouTube for their decision. But please don't give up making content!

Shawn Kotris

Please, don't give up on this series! The work done here is extremely important. Information is power and power needs to be given to the people! Keep up with the excellent work!

818 SUKI

Your content is incredible and unique. Don’t let YouTube stop you, keep at it. Happy to join your Patreon to support you.

Jake Brownson

Thank you x2

jaden

Finally had a moment to watch your Livestream, it sucks that YouTube is going to be this way. But hopefully more people join your Patreon because of it. I'm a new subscriber to your YouTube simply because of these cult videos, I also binged the scientology ones. Keep making this amazing content and I'm sure money will find it's way to you.

Aesirroc

Also, if you think yt has irredeemably marked your channel, you could create a new one with at least one other person (so it's not considered circumventing bans by using another account). I don't have a real source on that except that some youtubers create grouped channels, so why couldn't you if it at least looks believable? Idk just throwing out ideas.

Adri

So, is this going to carry on on this site now. All good, just asking

andy b

Hi Ben, just wanted to say this whole situation is incredibly upsetting to witness. Unless my conception of what people enjoy is extremely wrong, your channel should have blown up a looong time ago. Since yt doesn't bring you the online presence it should (whether that's a person's choice or an algorithm's mistake), maybe you should try making 30s condensed versions of videos (with only the instantly eye catching stuff) and posting on every social media, with links to the full one (if it isn't taken down) and Patreon ? I just have a hard time believing people wouldn't want to see more. Good luck with everything.

Adri

Hyped to see Michael again

Tom Ciaccia

Great work Ben

Roman Hat

Thank you
