00:00:00 Introduction and recap of Part 1
00:06:57 The 31 control techniques are used by all kinds of groups, and can be used ethically
00:14:53 Recovering after being in a totalistic group, and balancing your responsibility without guilt and shame
00:19:25 "Falling in love times 100": Love-bombing is conditional upon conformity and makes isolation a painful punishment
00:34:03 Group cohesion can mask an intolerance for any dissent or differences
00:39:11 Totalist groups destabilize your sense of self, then promise relief by rebuilding your identity
00:49:17 Ethical vs. unethical uses of destabilization
01:03:13 Deception is what separates a totalist group from the ethical uses of these techniques; you can't make a free choice if the group isn't being honest with you
01:12:01 There's no acceptable way to leave Mormonism without being considered "fallen away" or "apostate"
01:22:50 A focus on small, outward behaviors reinforces conformity and resolves cognitive dissonance in favor of the group
01:36:53 We change our view of ourselves to align with how we're behaving
01:44:40 Public commitments are more likely to be kept---for good and for ill
01:58:37 "The way to grow your testimony is to bear your testimony": Coercive elements of the Mormon testimony
02:05:44 Real or perceived dependence on the group leads to double-bind decisions
02:14:14 Financial, social, "only real ordinances," and "promised blessings" create dependence on the LDS Church
02:27:51 Promised outcomes are dependent on conformity to the group
02:35:05 Totalism privileges emotion over intellect in order to manipulate feelings
02:57:35 Closing remarks and prep for Part 3
