But then it turns into a moral lesson when it turns out that cult was actually a cooperative and the person who told you the original rumor a real estate developer that wanted the property

So there was an "article" written about the cult, but it was written by the head of the church. The article itself painted the group in an extremely positive light... The comments, on the other hand, were largely from concerned parents, siblings, and friends who had lost loved ones to the cult and no longer had contact. They've been active since 2007, this isn't a meme.
