One possible explaination is this is David Miscavage capitalizing on the general national desire to re-enter public spaces and not be so isolated after quarantine. Blitz style marketing is cheezy but unforunatley often effective. I also thought it might be the first time and/or a great excuse for Scientology to throw one of their gala type events and “fundraise” (I feel like that word has far to much association with charitable or philanthropic cause events to be applied to vampirically sucking your parishioners dry). Yet another reason why both State and Federal government should care about the operations of Scientology. Having high banckrupcy rates and fighting with creditors for money in probate court to recoup any funds Medicaid might have paid out in the medical care of that parishioner.

I have often wondered while listening to your podcast: Does Scientology look down on or disallow their parishioners, staff members, and Sea Org members to apply for and receive any State assistance? Examples of this would be Medicaid, Food Stamps (SNAP), Other supplemental nutrition programs specifically for young children, mothers, and families (WIC), and cash assistance for needy families (TANF), State or Federal disability pay…ect.

If so, there is an argument that Scientology not only doesn’t pay the massive taxes that they would owe to the State and Federal governments through their bullshit tax exempt status, but goes one step further as to place a burden on the State by not compensating or allowing parishioners to hold jobs in certain professions, for certain people/employers, that render individuals and families impoverished and in need of government assistance to survive.

No one wants to grow old on State and Federal subsidy alone, the government is not that much more generous than Scientology and the quality of life they afford the most needy and vulnerable in society is sparse and a constance struggle. Covert abuse is not addressed almost at all in mainstream and political culture, and it is the most insidious type of abuse because it is so subtle and designed to make the abuser also your savior. The emotional wreckage that leaves behind is devistating and infuriating to think about, especially when it is for no fucking reason other than the personal gain of a few completeling intolerant and ignorant meglomaniacs. Crazy to think how much of our lives are controlled by so few people. The old addage is true, “it only takes a few bad apples to ruin the bunch” LOLS.

Suppose this event is happening at every org’s end-of-week graduation. What if at many of these orgs there’s nobody there who is actually graduating since their academy is empty? Wouldn’t that be embarrassing?

In reply to Mike Rinder. Amazing! Thank you for clarifying, Mike. These poor sheeple! Not only are they being mentally extorted to attend just to find out what this no-big-deal bullshit is, but once t there will have to pretend how vast enthusiasm for how incredible and astounding, etc. it is, while being hit up for money, money, money.

In reply to Mike Rinder. LOLOL, thanks, Mike. Not entirely 100% sure if this info is sarcasm or not! Taking it at face value it is certainly underwhelming :)

In reply to Aquamarine. Breaking news from inside The Bubble: The massive announcement is going to be that you are no longer required to wear masks in orgs and that they can deliver the Purif again. This earth-shattering news has been hyped like the release of OT IX and X. How short of good news are they that this is a big deal?
