Distinguished Speakers... Who cannot be named. You can bet this turnout is going to be YUGE. It's Monumental And it's from 10 years ago! And you know what the "next strategy" is that is going to be revealed? We need more of your money. Should be even YUGER... Flag public are going to be being harassed to attend this mercilessly. Some will show up to help keep Ethics and Regges at bay. Still, if they have 200 people it would be a miracle. Your Ideal Scene Well, I can imagine a few them would be thinking "how about … [Read more...]
Holocaust Remembrance Day
According to Scientology and CCHR, this is a day to "honor survivors of human rights abuse". That is verging on holocaust apologizing -- calling the mass murder of millions "human rights abuse" is like referring to the Titanic as a "boating accident." They are also going to "challenge" the predjudice [sic], discrimination and hatred in our own society today. Here is a tough question for you Dakota. Are you inviting the Freedom Medal Winner Tony Mo to your event? Oh, looks like he is busy doing a speech elsewhere -- including on the poster promoting his speech some of the most disgusting … [Read more...]
CCHR Not Supported by IAS?
Hold the phone. Breaking news. The IAS proclaims over and over that the "wins" of CCHR are "thanks to your support of the IAS." Anyone who has been around CCHR or the IAS internally knows that is an absolute lie. But the public facade continues. Yet, it's hard to keep things like this totally secret. And here is more evidence. And how about this statement: There are currently 3 non-SO staff... How are there ANY Sea Org CCHR staff? This is not a "Sea Org" organization... And then a new one arrived about something else the IAS proclaims is all "thanks to your donations to … [Read more...]
Unnamed Sources
What are they afraid of by never including anyone's name? I'll tell you: Either the person does not really exist, and this is just made up copy like testimonials for the local greasy spoon written by the owner, his wife and family members, or They are scientologists who happen to be "a police officer" or a "crime documentary producer" (who makes videos for CCHR...), or The people who write these have NO IDEA they have anything to do with scientology, or that their statements are going to be used to promote scientology. If their name was included someone might contact them and ask … [Read more...]
CCHR Fund Raising
I have often commented about scientology being masters of disaster capitalism -- taking advantage of any disaster or tragedy as a reason to collect more money. And here is the latest. Cashing in on the tragedy of mass school shootings. Let's begin with a fundamental: because two things are connected does not mean one is causative. When it rains, umbrellas appear that are otherwise not seen. A fool might conclude that umbrellas cause rain. When someone is mentally deranged enough to murder children in a school, it is more likely than not that they have been in the hands of the mental … [Read more...]
News from The Valley
I like to keep tabs on the largest and most important Ideal Org on earth -- especially as it is my local org when I am in Los Angeles. At least it can rightfully lay claim to having the largest and emptiest parking lot of any scientology org on earth (others are just as empty, none are nearly so big...) First, they sent out this terrific Holiday Greetings card: Interesting they selected this particular sentence from the "Ideal Org" Policy Letter. It's so nebulous. People come there to get freedom, they have confidence in the fact it will happen and then they run smack … [Read more...]
Danny Masterson Trying to Shore Up His PR
Of course, when you are being investigated for rape -- "The Los Angeles Police Department Robbery Homicide Division, Sexual Assault Section, is conducting an investigation involving the actor Danny Masterson. Three women have come forward and disclosed that they were sexually assaulted by Masterson during the early 2000's," Hollywood Reporter -- you have to do more than hire a prominent criminal defense attorney and a private investigator. You have to make it appear that you are an all around good guy who really cares about kids. So you do a round of golf. No actual work or … [Read more...]
The “Plan To Take Down Psychiatry”
Ah, the certainty. The arrogance. The absolute conviction that your belief overcomes all facts. This is an example of a scientology fundamentalist (he also happens to make his living collecting donations for his "psychsearch" business in addition to being the "Overt Data Collection" guy for OSA Flag). The "plan to take down psychiatry" is to file complaints against psychiatrists. That assumes the majority of, if not all, psychiatrists are doing something for which a complaint could be filed. And then that those complaints are all found to have grounds and "Hey Presto" the psychs are … [Read more...]
Making A Living “Busting Psychs”
Our old friend Ken Kramer has gotten himself into the fundraising business. It seems to have become part of the ethnicity of being a scientologist. You can bet that he is making his living doing this. He found a little niche and is making a pitch for people to give him money to "destroy the psychs" -- he is a mini-IAS! And what better subject to get scientologists going than psychiatry. They are the ultimate boogeymen -- sent here from the planet Farsec to torture and maim the people of earth. The whole track implanters. The SPs that by nature of their diploma all want to do terrible … [Read more...]
Mission Impossible
Hmmm, I wonder what would happen if someone did this with the church of scientology? Put together a form to file complaints with different agencies (consumer affairs, justice department) and ran a campaign to get people to file them each month? Would there be more complaints filed about the church of scientology or about psychiatrists? I would put my money on scientology. Maybe Ken Kramer should start a campaign to clean up the field of mental healing in the church of scientology? Now that is a true Mission: Impossible. From: "Linda Mears" <[email protected]> Date: May … [Read more...]
