Yeah, Mormons in the early days were very explicitly a full cult. Brigham Young tried to declare war on the US federal government to try to claim Utah as a Mormon state. The mainstream Mormon church was full fundie until around 1900 or so. Not saying they're not a cult now, but the levels of bad aren't even comparable. The original Mormonism was a white ethnostate sex cult that tried to separate all their followers from the knowledge of the rest of the nation by changing languages
If Elon had as many children as Brigham Young, he'd manage to kill more of them
