Fascism in Plain Sight is the third episode of our mini-series "Too Many Cults", where Lindsay and Krispin (from the Prophetic Imagination Station and Linds' BIL) recap the docuseries Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets.

In this episode we talk about how IBLP and Jim Bob Duggar hold onto money while those with less power do unpaid work. We also talk about how Gothard created an environment in the IBLP that encouraged abuse to exist with impunity. Krispin shares some of the parallels he saw in his evangelical community in response to his disclosure of sexual abuse by a family member.

TW: religious abuse, sexual abuse, family cover-up of abuse, psychological abuse, harsh punishment of children), controlling parenting, grooming and sexual abuse.

Here's a breakdown of the episode and the topics:

0:00 Introduction, brief non-specific mention on Josh's child pornography charges.

2:00 Discussion of free labor in Evangelical spaces

23:00 Discussion of sexual abuse from Gothard and sexual abuse within the IBLP.
