Cultomania

An extreme version of cultification, where the observer sees cults everywhere: political parties, yoga studios, fan communities, even academic departments. Cultomaniacs use a checklist of cult traits (charisma, loyalty, jargon, rituals) and apply it indiscriminately. They often claim that any group with strong identity is a “cult of personality.” Cultomania is common in conspiracy‑adjacent circles and in some anti‑religion forums. Critics argue that it pathologizes normal social bonding, intellectual commitment, and organizational cohesion. If everything is a cult, nothing is a cult—the term loses its analytical value.

Cultomania Example: “The cultomaniac argued that the local book club was a cult because they met weekly, had inside jokes, and admired the facilitator. He had no evidence of undue influence, only suspicion of community.”
