...This is the man whose work is now featured on the FBI official website. And the man whose “BITE Model,” a subjective framework built on emotional, behavioral, and thought control, is being used to train FBI agents on how to identify “cult victims.”...
... the DOJ built its case on a podcast that featured Hassan as their expert voice, while that same guy was privately guiding the emotional and legal narratives of the two key witnesses ...
This wasn’t law enforcement. It was narrative laundering.
And the deeper you go, the clearer it becomes: this isn’t just about OneTaste.
It’s about how the language of therapy and activism has been transformed into a tool of federal prosecution. What does that mean, exactly? It means the government is using emotionally charged labels like “cult,” “coercion,” and “victim” to turn Trump Derangement Syndrome ...into lawfare predicates—and a wellness company’s legal fight may have just exposed the entire blueprint....Steven Hassan, a self-proclaimed “cult expert.” Hassan developed what’s known as the BITE Model: short for Behavior, Information, Thought, and Emotional control. This term is used to describe how cults supposedly manipulate people. The FBI has adopted this BITE model as a tool to train agents in identifying potential victims of “coercive control.”...
...That dangerous mindset fits perfectly with Steven Hassan’s BITE Model, which reinterprets free will as mind control and emotional bonds as evidence of abuse. This creates a framework that allows prosecutors to redefine past choices as criminal coercion, even if the person making those choices completely and totally disagrees.
..Steven Hassan’s extreme ideological views aren’t just influencing public perception; they’re helping build the foundation for some of the flimsiest, yet most aggressive, lawfare we’ve seen in modern history.
That isn’t justice. It’s ideology on trial.....

Lol. The FBI meets all the criteria for a cult.
