Evidently, all you have been trying to do, is wake your poor friends up from the pay-through-the-nose 'MLM' nightmare.<br /><br />I was branded a 'Dream Stealer' by members of my own family who fell for 'Amway.' They also told me that I was 'selfish loser' who was 'threatening their own success, because I was jealous.'<br /><br />Have your friends been placing images of their dreams at strategic places in their homes?<br /><br />My brother (a high school teacher) had a dream image of a macho 4X4 vehicle in a mountain landscape stuck to his fridge. He used to sit and stare at this just like a religious icon - as though one day his guided-vision of paradise would become his reality.<br /><br />All these 'MLM' cults have used essentially the same closed-logic labels to exclude 'negative' outsiders. i.e. free-thinking persons who realize that 'MLM' is a fraud and who refuse to join, and/or try to reason with its victims. <br /><br />If Michael Johnson and his fellow 'Herbalife' bosses were to be challenged over these devious techniques of social and psychological persuasion (which has been omnipresent in 'Herbalife' for 30+ years), they would probably pretend that all this has absolutely nothing to do with them or their company. <br /><br />A word of advice - Because cults like 'Herbalife' cut their adherents off from external reality whilst giving them the illusion that they are making free choices, its important not to try to force them to return to reality. Usually, it's best to ask them lots of thought-provoking questions; particularly, relating to how exactly much money 'MLM dreaming' has been costing them. Also, although it's difficult, try to retain your sense of humour. 'MLM' adherents are programmed to expect hostility.<br /><br />Feel free to send me your contact details in a comment. These will not be posted.<br /><br />I'd particularly like to know which country you are from.
