I feel really bad for these people because I know personally that understanding that you were being lied to because you were stupid enough to not do any extra research and you got nothing in the end other than the experience of being duped by a cult.

And no one wants to believe they were duped, they want to find a scapegoat. But the problem I found when trying to reach out to my ex jw mates was that they wanted to hate the doctrine that I still loved and wouldn't accept me unless I took a firm stance. So I did

JW is a cult according to christian theology.
