The Book of Cults Vol. 2 | Everyday Indoctrination

by The Anti-Cult Organization

ISBN: 979-8-9989635-8-2

Original price was: $13.99.Current price is: $6.29.

A nonfiction deconstruction of the “normal” systems we were trained to obey — education, family, marriage, and the cult of positivity.

Not all cults have leaders. Some just have job titles.

The Book of Cults: Volume 2 – Everyday Indoctrination is the second installment in the trilogy from The Anti-Cult Organization, a nonprofit publisher that names systems without sermonizing. This volume takes aim at the personal and institutional scripts we absorbed without realizing—education, family, self-improvement, marriage, and the culture of “niceness” that made obedience look like virtue.


These are the everyday “cults”. The ones that don’t need robes or rituals—just default settings and social pressure.


Presented in short, satirical essays, this volume dissects 20 forms of modern compliance with clarity, wit, and zero reverence. If you’ve ever called something “normal” just because it was familiar, this book has something to say about that.

Volume 2 covers:

  • The Cult of Conformity

  • The Self-Improvement Cult

  • The Cult of Positivity

  • The Familial Cult

  • The Cult of Education

  • The Cult of Marriage

  • The Cult of the Good Person
    … and more.

This is not empowerment. It’s exposure.
