Drink the Kool-Aid

American Horror Story. Cult

7×9

Kai: ...it's easy to get men to kill for you. Any asshole with enough money or a rank in the army can get men to do that. Real power is having people loyal enough to you that, if you ask them to, they will kill themselves. They will override their natural survival instinct in service of your needs and will.
Heart Attack: Wait, are we a cult? I thought we were a political movement.
Kai: All politics is a personality cult now, Heart Attack.

Kai: The left-wing propagandists at CNN and NBC have polluted our discourse with fake news. Pornography has desensitized our young men. We've lost a generation of moms to Candy Crush! This can't go unchecked.

Ivy: I just... I-I felt... I felt like I was out of control, like there was no boundary or structure to contain me or my feelings, and... I wanted someone to come in and say, "Do this. Go there. Believe in this. Care about that."
Ally: A daddy?
Ivy: I guess, yeah. It felt so good to take my hands off the wheel.

Winter: We have to run away. It's the only way. I found this on wikiHow...
Ally: "How to escape from a cult."
Winter: They lay out 14 steps, it's all in there.

Kai: Jim Jones said...
Ally: Oh, my...
Kai: "Death is not a fearful thing. It's the living that's cursed."

Kai: "This is not suicide. It's a revolutionary act. The world will be talking about us, forever..."

Kai: Why would I kill us? I'm running for Senate. And dead people can't vote. Except in Chicago.

Kai: I'm sure your mommies do the best they can, but... they're girls. They don't know what it's like to be you.
Oz: Every family is special in their own way.
Kai: Happy families are all alike. Every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way. Tolstoy.
Oz: Toy Story?

Ally: Ivy, you need to calm down. It's not good for your health. Come on. Sit down. Eat some food. Drink some wine...

Kai: Doubters get no cookies.

Kai: He's cute. Talks a lot. No filter.
Ally: Yeah. He can be a precocious little fucker.
Kai: Well, with a name like Ozymandius, kid's just begging to get the shit kicked out of him. Who came up with that?
Ally: I did. King of kings.
