Actually intrigued about their reasons for this. Is it because of all the drugs/going to the dark side and all the rec. drugs? Is it because of all the shady g4p stories we hear? Are any true? Is it because of bob chick and the ice machine in the Mirage?

You see in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend. Those with loaded guns, and those who dig. You dig.
-
Only a cult if you want it to be.
-
We call it a cult because only few men on the planet possess the willpower to inject themselves everyday eat diet food and train hard in the gym.

I think it got popular here during the heyday of GH - 15. It was in reference to the whole kitten kaboodle of weird shit that goes along with hardcore competitive bodybuilding you don't understand till you've been around the scene for a few years.
It was also loosely tied to this article -

and the old Undercover Pro articles from years back.

It's a cult because, at the top level, it's very unusual and extremely unhealthy.... Yet nobody wants to leave.

No....because it's a subculture of weirdos, phaggots, pervs, pedos, drug addicts, G4P, schmoes, trannies, liars, adulterers, and thieves.....and that's just the Manion family.

When you have to shoot, shoot. Don't talk.

because it's a sub-culture... a 'niche'.
just like strongman.. 99% of the guys who do strongman contests will never, ever, ever be on tv or get any kind of recognition, even in their local papers... yet they train day in and day out for notoriety amongst a few small population who are even aware the sport exists.
just like skateboarding is a sub-culture, or a myriad of other "hobby's"

I shoot first, then I ask questions.

Cant call it a sport
So its cult or "industry"
Or pageantry
