Description: Journalist and podcaster Andrew Gold joins The Winston Marshall Show for a revealing conversation on cults, cancel culture, and the psychology of belief in the modern age.Gold draws on his investigations into extremist movements, online radicalisation, and high control groups to explain why so many people are drawn to rigid ideologies that promise meaning, belonging, and moral certainty. He outlines how cult dynamics now operate through social media, identity politics, and activist movements that punish dissent and reward conformity.They discuss cancel culture as a modern shaming ritual, the fear driving self censorship in media and academia, and why journalists are increasingly pressured to abandon truth in favour of ideological safety. Gold also reflects on his own experiences being targeted for asking the wrong questions and platforming the wrong people.All this cult psychology, belief systems, cancel culture, moral panic, and why so many people are desperate for certainty in a chaotic world.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters 00:00 Introduction 06:36 Cultural Assimilation and Historical Context10:54 Islam and British Culture27:56 Ethno Nationalism vs. Civic Nationalism43:04 Conspiracy Theories and Alternative Media48:30 The Psychology of Conspiracy Theories 55:45 The Groyper Movement and Nick Fuentes1:02:27 The Role of Heretics in Society1:08:26 Closing Remarks and Audience Engagement Hosted on Acast.
