Have you ever noticed that part of the Reverse Scientology package is to have untrained OT’s?
I am trained to the same level of OT and Auditor. I had to constantly defend my right to keep training and not just go on to OTVII because that was the next step on the processing side of the Bridge. The policy “Training and OT” comes to mind.
OT’s in the CoS are discouraged from doing training to equal their processing level. They are given “Command Intention” to get keep moving up to get onto OTVII, no matter what. Thus you have untrained OT’s.
I consider this intentional, to keep people at effect and an example of Reverse Scientology.

Perfectly stated in points one to five. The life of a lowly, corporate, OT, staff member or Joe Blow public scientologist.

“You follow a leader with no conscience and you have to adopt the same characteristics. It gets very rough as the push-pull mechanism gets into full play.”

That’s what I was observing in these OTC members while wondering why they never seemed to look happy despite their mocked up “enthusiasm”. I got a weird kind of vibe from all these guys – a kind of suppressed hostility, masked with cheerfulness and enthusiasm about how wonderful their lives were, how great everything was, etc. etc. Which mystified me because not one of them gave off a happy vibe. So I decided, or dubbed in, that they just didn’t like me and felt they had to hide it for some reason. Maybe they, with their OT powers, knew how much I inwardly loathed and dreaded and resented all the events and phone calls and crush regging. Maybe they could read my pictures and hated me for this! I avoided them whenever possible because I had missed withold phenomena around them. Funny. Live and learn, and I do, every day, on this blog. Thank you, Mike, and all of you who post here on the Fringe of the Internet 🙂

They do…
There have been many reported instances of advertisements in Hollywood acting newspapers like Backstage of their auditions.

“This deceit has been going on for years”.

Thanks, Emilie. Just learned another reason why they always looked so stressed to me underneath the forced enthusiasm and fist pumping, etc. So glad you’re out of that scene, kiddo.

It is true that the practice of “staging” the “public” in org videos has gone on since they started.

What is new is the level of effort it is apparently taking to get “bodies” into the org so they can film it.

All true, Chris. I can remember a time when the supes would announce at the end of course, that Gold wanted to take photos of students engaged in study. No extra effort to fill the course rooms was required in those days, because…..they were full!

Heck, half the students would always take off and leave anyway, but there were always enough left behind to get excellent shots. Now they have to mobilize the OT Committees to get enough warm bodies in the place to produce a believable video.

I’m sure this disturbs most old timers who are still around to see it.

Yes, this staging of pictures for events and magazines has been going on for years. When my local org went Ideal, they called all public, all staff, all OTC to come in wearing their Sunday best clothing for a Gold Shoot to show how full the courserooms are in the new Ideal Org. Nothing but smoke and mirrors for years. Shell game.
