'''Cultism''' refers to the ideological tendency towards cults, the practices and devotions of a cult. Cults are usually defined in some sort of way as being organisations which exert an unhealthy and abusive amount of control over their members.
== History ==
Cultism as we know it and the term emerged in 1617, as a way of describing religious cults, but as it is described, it emerged between the years 1829 and 1920.
Something similar to cults has existed since antiquity, especially in ancient tribes and societies. An example could be the followers of Pythagoras, known for advancing mathematics and the execution of Hippasus of Metapontum, a mathematician known for discovering the existence of irrational numbers.
== Meanings of the Word 'Cult' ==
=== Cultivation ===
The term 'cult' is a cognate of the term 'cultivation'. In the broadest and non-negative sense a cult is any group who participate in cultivation of something, with that thing being seen as holy by the members of the group. This meaning of the word is used by the [[File:Catheo.png]] [[Catholic Theocracy|Roman Catholic]] and [[File:Orth.png]] [[Orthodox Theocracy|Eastern Orthodox]] churches to describe the public veneration of saints.
This meaning of the word 'cult' isn't really what people think when think of 'cults' and one shouldn't conflate this meaning with other meaning.
=== B.I.T.E. model ===
B.I.T.E. is an acronym for the four characteristics which according to the mental health counselor define what a cult is.<ref name=":0">[https://freedomofmind.com/cult-mind-control/bite-model/ Steven Hassan's B.I.T.E. Model of Authoritarian control]</ref><ref>[https://freedomofmind.com/cult-mind-control/ Undue Influence]</ref> The B.I.T.E. model can generally be said to be what most people think when they think of the word 'cult'.
B.I.T.E. stands for<ref name=":0" />
* ''Behaviour control:'' The organisation takes control over its members' physical activity.
* ''Information control:'' The organisation takes control over its members' source of information.
* ''Thought control:'' The organisation takes control what its members can and cannot think.
* ''Emotional control'': The organisation takes control over what its members can and cannot feel.
<br />
=== Cult of Personality ===
Another meaning of the term 'cult' is found within the term 'cult of personality', which is a practice utilized predominantly by [[File:Auto.png]] [[Autocracy|autocratic]] political regimes. The term means worship of a certain individual (usually the current ruler or one of the founders of the regime). Some of the most well-known cults of personality are:
*[[File:Argentina.png]] [[Peronism|Juan Perón]] [[File:Pron.png]]
*[[File:Cball-China.png]] [[Maoism|Mao Zedong]] [[File:Mao.png]]
*[[File:Cball-Italy.png]] [[Fascism|Benito Mussolini]] [[File:Classfash.png]]
*[[File:Nazi.png]] [[National Socialism|Adolf Hitler]] [[File:Hitler.png]]
