A dramatic new Netflix series, “Sirens,” has reignited public debate around cult psychology by illustrating, beneath its quirky and extravagant surface, the disturbingly subtle methods that cults use to recruit and control followers. The show, set on a remote island where an affluent community is ruled with an iron will by leader “Kiki,” draws viewers in with eccentric rituals and oddball characters—only to reveal the deeply manipulative psychological machinery that traps people in such groups (RNZ).

A new Netflix series shines a harsh light on how high-control groups recruit and maintain followers, peeling back the quirks and gloss to reveal the psychological machinery behind manipulation. Set on a secluded island, the show follows an elite community ruled with an iron will by a leader named Kiki. The drama uses eccentric rituals and colorful characters to lead viewers toward a troubling truth: how easily people can be drawn in and how hard it becomes to escape. The portrayal resonates with real-world concerns about coercive groups in Thailand and around the world.

In a dramatic turn of events highlighting the risks of social media-driven health fads, a prominent advocate of the extreme carnivore diet, widely known as the “Liver King,” has publicly admitted he was “wrong” about the purported benefits of eating only animal foods—including raw organs like testicles and liver. The revelation, made in a new Netflix documentary, is prompting renewed scrutiny of restrictive diets promoted online and stoking important conversations about nutrition, health, and disinformation for audiences in Thailand and beyond (UNILAD).

A high-profile online advocate of an all-meat eating pattern has publicly acknowledged that his extreme carnivore regimen may have been misguided. In a recent Netflix documentary, the Liver King admits he was wrong about the benefits of consuming only animal products, including raw organs. The confession fuels renewed debate about social-media health fads, nutrition science, and misinformation, with implications for readers in Thailand and beyond.

The Liver King rose to global prominence by presenting a hyper-masculine image built on animal-derived foods and a nearly komplett exclusion of plants. His family joined the act, sometimes eating bull testicles and raw liver on camera under a branding banner of an “ancestral” lifestyle. He claimed the diet helped his children’s health and allergies, attracting millions of followers and spawning a lucrative supplement line.
