They're a very large culture in the intermountain west. Like any group they contain good and bad. Yes, there is some super bad there, but there are also regular people just trying to live their lives in accordance with what they're taught. No worse than any believers of other organized religions as I've experienced it, which isn't saying much. And lots of ex-mormons too who have broken free.
After their transitioning in 2018 in response to a “victory for Satan”, it is in bad taste to deadname them.
Its members who do not lead are some of the kindest people on Earth (when they’re not voting or comparing their godliness to that of other members); they are mostly multigenerational victims of a make-it-up-as-you-go-in-order-to-protect-your-own-reputation-despite-profound-and-life-long-unethical-behavior fabulist who broke others to create a world where church leadership must not be questioned, even when it’s wrong, and where church history and doctrine must be correct, even when science comes to disagree.
When you are told someone’s preferred name, especially when it’s the name of the one true church and when it’s run by Jesus, whom you must know would have been surprised and appalled that people waited until a nonagenarian with an axe to grind finally announced the sole acceptable proper nouns in 2018, you must never, ever, call the Mormons anything except “‘members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,’ ‘Latter-day Saints,’ ‘members of the Church of Jesus Christ’ and ‘members of the restored Church of Jesus Christ’ are preferred” and they “ask that the term ‘Mormons’ and ‘LDS’ not be used”.
