spawn-ism is a cult. my ex friend I cant tell if they where just stupid or actually believed it. they fake DID/OSSD. its all very annoying and they ignore triggers I've told them. and do it anyway, its all so annoying!!!

Spawnism is widely considered a dangerous, real-world cult that originated as a fictional concept in a Roblox game and has since been co-opted by online predators to exploit vulnerable individuals, particularly minors. It is not a legitimate religion and is generally described by experts and former community members as a hoax used for manipulation.

Origins and Beliefs

Fictional Source: Spawnism began as part of the lore in the Roblox horror game Forsaken, where a fictional "Spawn Cult" worshipped a deity called "The Spawn".
Real-World Adaptation: Some players took the fictional idea seriously, forming real-world groups.
"Respawning" Belief: A key belief in the real-world cult is the literal concept of rebirth after death, similar to a video game mechanic.

Harmful Practices and Concerns

Authorities and child safety advocates are concerned about Spawnism due to associated harmful activities:

Self-Harm: There are reports of followers being pressured to self-harm.
Manipulation and Exploitation: Allegations suggest individuals are using Spawnism to manipulate and exploit young people, potentially involving illegal activities. Some sources link the cult to online criminal networks for grooming and exploitation.
Coercion and Control: The group reportedly demands absolute loyalty and discourages critical thinking.
Emotional Distress: The environment and practices are considered damaging to participants' well-being.

Awareness and Safety

Organizations like the FBI have warned about networks recruiting through platforms like Roblox, and content creators are raising awareness.

If you or someone you know is affected, it is important to:

Seek help: Contact a professional, trusted adult, or crisis hotline.
Report users: Report users to platform administrators and game developers.
Be vigilant: Parents and guardians are advised to monitor children's online activities.
