You are living with the results of that "negative cult group drama." One of them even got nominated for the Arkansas House of Representatives (he lost, but he earned the nomination). Refusing to pay attention to the world around you is how the world can suddenly snatch you up and spit you out. When you're upset because your insurance company says you have to pay $20,000 for a new roof or lose your homeowners insurance, it's because you weren't paying attention. When your granddaughter dies during a difficult pregnancy because her doctor was afraid of being arrested if he gave her an abortion - it's because you weren't paying attention.
When thousands of homeless people show up in your neighborhood because they were kicked out of another place, and this surprises you, it's because you weren't paying attention.
When your taxes go up and you are surprised by the cost of gas, it's because you weren't paying attention.
You can pay attention or not, it's up to you. But don't come here complaining about sudden changes or things that you finally notice are getting bad/unpleasant.
