TW: Overall really intense talk of sexual assault, sexual abuse, purity culture trauma, narcissistic abuse, spiritual abuse, child abuse, child mol3station, religious trauma, physical abuse via corporal punishment, sexism & misogyny, victim blame, SEVERE TW for episode 4 regarding the talk of Josh Duggar’s child p0rn case 


Hi all - welcome to my review and breakdown of the Amazon Prime docu-series, “Shiny Happy People.” Shiny Happy People covers the fundamentalist Christian cult, IBLP, and how that cult harms folks. It centers primarily on the Duggar Family, known for TLC’s reality show: “19 Kids & Counting,” and how IBLP impacted their children. 


In this episode, I focus primarily on how IBLP and fundamentalist Christianity as a WHOLE is intrinsically misogynistic, manipulative, abusive, and narcissistic. If you are a survivor of religious abuse, this episode may be triggering or emotional for you. Please take care of yourself and prioritize your mental well-being and healing. 


Let’s dive in….
