Thinking critically isn't dangerous. It’s only “dangerous” to AA ideology — and that’s exactly why it matters.

In this episode of #CultyComments, we break down a response from someone 30 years into AA who says my "Why I Left AA" video should be taken down.

In this episode:

— How AA identity creates fear of other perspectives

— Why “you’ll drink if you leave” is toxic programming

— What makes deconstructing AA a positive, life-giving process

— And why you're allowed to think critically, trust yourself, and get free
