The Radical Honesty movement is a somewhat recent subculture, emerging in the mid 1990s thanks to the efforts of psychotherapist Brad Blanton. The movement seeks to improve peoples' (and others') lives through having them only say the truth and nothing but it. There have been claims raised by former members of the group's cult-like behavior - like with a lot of self-help groups - but such claims haven't really hurt those who are trying to be honest no matter what. Just to add to this honesty pile-up, I did not write this script! So lets see what happens when you give me an energy drink and a two page paper on a self help group in this week's episode of Subculture Shock.
Disclaimer (because one isn't enough): We are not a group of professional researchers, at best we're people interested in the world around them and college students. We encourage all out viewers to use these videos as a stepping-stone to introduce themselves to whatever subculture the video above covers.
Thank you again Mr. Scott for writing this video while I was out of the office.
Legal disclaimer - The views brought up by the former members of radical honesty towards Radical Honesty and Dr. Blanton do not reflect those of this channel. Our purpose within including such accusations is to display a broader picture of this and similar self-help groups. We advise all viewers (as we usually do) to use a video such as this as a starting point into their own research on the discussed group. Any and all claims of cult-like behaviors are played for humor outside of relaying those claims from several sources as part of the criticism section of this video.
