Description
This Straight group gets a +4 bonus toward destroying any Weird or Fanatic group, rising to +8 if the target is both -- and notably, the Discordian Society's usual immunity to Straight-group attacks doesn't protect it from the Deprogrammers.
Conspiracy Narrative
References the real, controversial 1970s-80s "deprogramming" industry, in which families hired professionals to forcibly remove loved ones from new religious movements or cults -- a practice that drew its own accusations of kidnapping and abuse.
Goes well with
The card explicitly calls out the Discordian Society by name as one group its bonus can reach despite that Illuminati's usual immunity to Straight attacks.
