You've heard of the "Cult of Mac"? Steve Jobs would be the cult leader. "In 1978, 900 followers of cult leader Jim Jones committed suicide by drinking a grape-flavored drink laced with cyanide at their commune in Jonestown, Guyana. This drink is often said to have been Kool-Aid, and this popular misconception is so widespread that to "drink [someone's] Kool-Aid" and to be a "Kool-Aid drinker" has acquired the meaning of having been convinced by someone's ideology, even to the point of self-destruction."
