The problem is we have stigmatized the concept of cults into more or less any belief system we disagree with. Everyone has a belief system and in my mind is a part of a kind of cult. The more anyone denies this about themself, the more cultlike (in the pejorative sense) their behavior tends to be.

The tech cults of the bay area are at least amongst the most obnoxious.

They’re nowhere near as obnoxious as evangelicals in small towns in the Bible Belt.

Sure but I don't have to live in the Bible belt.

What sort of influence do evangelicals in small towns wield compared to tech giants?

Well a woman was forced to go to the state Supreme Court this week to get a routine medical procedure, and thanks to evangelicals was denied.
