One of the key signs of an abuser or a cult is cutting the victim off from their support structure.
No, that's not true. One of the key signs of a cult is that it doesn't have many members. One of the key signs of an abusive religion is that it cuts the victim of from their support structure, whether that religion be a cult or a larger religion. You seem to be talking as though the word cult meant abusive religion. I can assure you that though many religions are abusive, an equal proportion are both small and large, cult and non cult. Most victims of religious abuse are not in cults, because most religious people are not in cults. When you mix up cults with abusive religions, it becomes hard to tell the difference between the two, and you make it harder for people to see the abuses committed by larger religions.
