					<description><![CDATA[I recommend everyone watch The Vow &#8212; both seasons &#8212; on HBO. It documents the horrors of Keith Raniere and his NXIVM cult. Mark, and his wife Bonnie Piesse, play a significant role in bringing down Raniere, who is now serving 120 years in Federal prison. Christie and I have become friends with Mark and Bonnie [&#8230;]]]></description>

We talked about the similarities between Nxivm and scientology, the systems of control and even the language are remarkably similar, so much so that [&#8230;]]]></description>

Many of the specific control mechanisms Dr. Burkley cites about NXIVM have direct parallels in scientology. As she says, &#8220;the psychological tricks Raniere [&#8230;]]]></description>
