Make it even weirder. It's a democratic cult. You all worship a 20' tall version of Lady Liberty. You believe in absolute simple merciless majoritarian rule. What the majority wants, the majority gets. No excepts. No issue to big or small. Nothing too invasive or morally wrong. You make all decisions democratically. Someone in the cult proposes something, and everyone votes on it. Simple majority vote wins for everything. You still have no amount of autonomy. Your sex life will be decided by a simple majority vote. All your assets will be held in common. There is no charismatic leader, and things work more like a New England town hall. What positions of authority that exist within the cult do little more than run the cult meetings. They don't have any authority on their own. And be careful who you anger. You can be divorced by simply majority vote. You can be banished penniless onto the street by simple majority vote. You can be executed by simple majority vote. Your life is now a popularity contest. Instead of bowing to a charismatic leader, you are crushed beneath a literal tyranny of the majority.
