"Jim Jones was the leader of the Peoples Temple, a religious group that gained notoriety for the Jonestown Massacre on November 18, 1978. 900 people died in a mass murder-suicide at this event, in a remote commune in Jonetown, Guyana. This murder-suicide is considered the largest loss of American civilian life due to a deliberate act before 9/11. This incident led to the widespread use of the phrase "drink the Kool-Aid" as a metaphor for blindly following a harmful ideology."
