    Yes and yes. I want to stress that Yud’s got more of what we call an incubator of cults; in addition to the Zizians, they also are responsible for incubating the principals of (the principals of) the now-defunct FTX/Alameda Research group, who devolved into a financial-fraud cult. Previously, on Awful, we started digging into the finances of those intermediate groups as well, just for funsies.

      Wow, didn’t realize there was an FTX connection too. I was only familiar with him because of the Behind The Bastards podcast episode about the Zizians.
