Agreed in principle, though it’s worth noting that more resourced people tend to have less insecurities in general. People who have a stable family, no economic insecurity, positive peer support, etc, end up less susceptible to cults, as well as bad social dynamics in general.
This isn’t to say that people can’t create stable confidence for themselves without those things, only that “dependent confidence” is also a thing that people can have instead that acts protectively, or exposes risk.
