| | Cult - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Most governmental clashes with cult-like groups in the United States in recent years have been the result of real or perceived violations of the law by the groups in question. | | | Cults are groups that often exploit members psychologically and/or financially, typically by making members comply with leadership's demands through certain types of psychological manipulation, popularly called mind control, and through the inculcation of deep-seated anxious dependency on the group and its leaders. | | | Although in the atypical case she describes, the entire cult membership quit, more often rebellion is a combination of the walkaway and castaway patterns in that the rebellion may trigger the expulsion--essentially, the rebels provoke the cult leadership into being the agency of their break with an over-committed lifestyle. |

| | Joseph Stalin - Biocrawler |
| | In his "Secret Speech", "On the Personality Cult and its Consequences", delivered to a closed session of the 20th Party Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Khrushchev denounced Stalin for his cult of personality and his regime for "violation of Leninist norms of legality". | | | Yuri Davydov told NTV that his father had told him of his lineage, but, because the campaign against Stalin's cult of personality was in full swing at the time, he was told to keep quiet. | | | However, his immediate successors continued to follow the basic principles of Stalin's rule — the political monopoly of the Communist Party presiding over a command economy and a security service able to suppress dissent. |

Haynes II for a seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit. | | | As lawyers in Texas argue the particulars of the conspiracy and money-laundering charges leveled against the former majority leader, DeLay and his supporters in Washington must beat back the potential for insurrection among rank-and-file Republicans on Capitol Hill for the still-powerful Texan to regain his leadership title. | | | Personally, there are parts of Casey that I support, such as the requirement that the state provide women with relevant information on paternal support laws and such prior to abortion, and even the 24-hour waiting period. |

| | Enver Hoxha Speech 7 November 1961 |
| | Khrushchev, speaking of the "iniquities" and "victims of the period of the personality cult", declaring the various court trials as framed-up, regardless of the fact that in all that struggle there might have been made also some mistakes, appears to be consistent with his anti-Marxist concepts about imperialism and its servitors. | | | The question of the personality cult, in short, was used as a bugbear to exercise pressure on the other parties and to liquidate the leaders who were not to the liking of N. Khrushchev. | | | That N. Khrushchev, under the pretext of the fight against the personality cult, is seeking to uncrown Leninism in order to pave the way to revisionism, is known also by the fact that he is by no means concerned with the just and principled. |

| | During this period the public was given a say in the government, even though an extremely minor one, and the judicial system eased it's aggressiveness allowing a defendant a better chance of defending themselves. | | | Stalins method of personal rule was replaced by group rule and more orderly processes of government, the terror apparatus was largely dismantled, the economy was notably modernized and foreign policy was conducted with much greater diplomatic initiative and flexibility. | | | In the process known as de-Stalinization, legal procedures were restored, some greater degree of meaningful public controversy was permitted, forced labor camps were closed and the secret police tactics of Stalins era were erased. |

| | The effective struggle against the personality cult as unanimously approved by the 20th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, exerts a great influence over the whole communist movement. | | | We have found manifestations of the personality cult both in leading central and local organs; to overcome these shortcomings, we have decided to improve ideological work in the Party and among the people. | | | Our enemy has attempted to make use of the criticism of personality cult to mitigate the influence of the great achievements recorded by the Soviet Union and to blemish the revolutionary movement which is ceaselessly gaining more victories. |

| | What is a Cult? The mind control process in the FWBO. |
| | Consequently both individual members and also the cult as a whole will often seem to mirror in various ways the personality and preoccupations of their leader. | | | Cults in general are dominated by their leaders, and members, especially those who have immersed themselves in the cult's mind-control environment for a number of years, tend to derive much of their outlook on life from the leader's teachings. | | | Cults themselves are usually opaque to outside scrutiny, and the actual process of mind control is difficult to define or to analyse. |

| | Nor did the October Revolution and the accompanying civil war devour its children. | | | This false version, which bored into the consciousness of the Soviet people during the years of "the thaw," was renounced by Khrushchev only in his memoirs at the end of the 1960s, where he repeatedly returned to an assessment of Stalin. | | | The most derogatory term in the works both of the "democrats" and of the "national-patriots" suddenly became the half-forgotten concept of the "Bolshevik," which can be applied correctly only to Lenin& generation of the party and to its elements who didn’t degenerate in subsequent years. |

| | Khrushchev denounced Stalin, the cult of personality he had fostered and the crimes he had perpetrated, including the execution, torture and imprisonment of loyal party members on false charges. | | | It was the first since the death of Josef Stalin in 1953, but almost nothing was said about the dead leader until, in closed session on the 25th, 1,500 delegates and many invited visitors listened to an amazing speech by Nikita Khrushchev, First Secretary of the party, on ‘The Personality Cult and its Consequences’. | | | He blamed Stalin for foreign policy errors, for the failings of Soviet agriculture, for ordering mass terror and for mistakes that had led to appalling loss of life in the Second World War and the German occupation of huge areas of Soviet territory. |

| | Central Europe Review - Music: Krzyzstof Penderecki |
| | Consequently, the sudden availability of contemporary scores and recordings following Stalin's death in 1953, and Nikita Khruschev's subsequent "secret" report - "The Personality Cult and its Consequences" - instigated one of music history's most remarkable renaissances. | | | If Thomas had limited his musical examples to works composed before 1974, one suspects some of the audience might have suffered quite a shock during the rehearsal, for Penderecki's later style is very different from that of his avant-garde works. | | | Interestingly enough, his approach to conducting could also be characterised as "broadstroke," and not simply because of its exaggerated physical mannerisms. |
