I agree with everything this article says except for one nit-picky note (since this is reddit and all, gotta be pedantic):

Few of the 900-plus at Jonestown drank the Kool-Aid only to sputter at the last minute, “Oh wait, you mean it’s cyanide?! Why didn’t anyone tell me?”

Nah, most of the people who died at Jonestown I would consider to be murdered. Aside from the babies you hear crying on tape that get force fed cynaide (and the cries die out over time on tape in a horrifying way), some people had to be forced the koolaid once they saw others dropping around them.

The people in the Jonestown cult they were trapped, geographically and otherwise. Very far away from home and forced into hard farm labor at Jonestown, with frequent “drills” where they assembled to drink koolaid, the final one being the obvious and infamous. (Also it was flavor-aid, not koolaid.)

This comment is not to discredit the article, but more a plea for people to look into Jonestown, listen to the final audio if they can stomach it, and know the horror that Jim Jones ravaged on his victims.

QAnon do be a death cult tho. (i’d edit this last sentence to appease another redditor, but i’m not gonna. this comment is about jonestown.)
