CCHR Hysteria

June 4, 2020 By Mike Rinder 42 Comments

Snark of the day. This was the commentary that accompanied this piece from CCHR (Citizen's Commision on Human Rights) that had been sent to one of our faithful readers. Unfortunately, the bad news is, that unpaid and underpaid CCHR workers are tirelessly bombarding legitimate news, newsletter, and aggregating websites, and pseudo-news outlets, with their 'facts' which they don't fact check, at all. These overworked and understaffed decision-makers are just looking for interesting topics to publish in these COVID-19 times. CCHR's massive spewing out of their bullshit articles are clearly … [Read more...]

Secret CCHR Briefing

May 4, 2020 By Mike Rinder 44 Comments

  CCHR has gone "stealth" to reveal the REAL story that psychiatry is behind the pandemic... Not sure why they would not want everyone in the world to hear their vital message? Maybe it's such garbage they are afraid they will be laughed at? Only the already brainwashed will accept the drivel they dish up.   You can bet there will be a heavy pitch for money. Every "briefing" in scientology is an attempt to get money for one thing or another. At the same time this pitch is happening, you know the IAS is sucking money out of people for exactly the same thing. … [Read more...]

The IAS is doing EVERYTHING

January 25, 2020 By Mike Rinder 37 Comments

  The IAS is truly the biggest scam in scientology. And that is saying something. Just look what they say here: "At new orders of magnitude, we are tackling ANY planetary ruin ANYWHERE, from the edge of the world to your neighborhood." This is such astonishing bullshit it even surprises me. They also claim that the they are the ONLY solution to war, criminality and immorality. And "WE ARE CHANGING THE WORLD"... And they are serious! And how odd is it that the person doing this pitch is Ruddy Rodriguez, IAS Freedom Medal Winner from VENEZUELA! Hey Ruddy, how … [Read more...]

  That Cristian Vargas sure gets around... He seems to be the only person organizing events these days?   Big news From a "former" investigative reporter and a retired Army officer. I am sure they are experts. Just as sure there will be a lot of correlation without causation involved in this (almost by definition you have to be mentally ill to engage in a mass shooting -- how come scientology hasn't yet "taken over the field" on mental healing and handled this problem? Are they not just as responsible as "the psychs" who they claim know nothing but they have ALL the … [Read more...]

The Sole Cause of Decline in This Universe

November 11, 2019 By Mike Rinder 38 Comments

Hubbard created an environment in scientology of "Us v. Them" -- a hallmark of cult indoctrination. You must have an "enemy" upon whom you can lay blame for all failure/terrible conditions and if you can then convince your followers that you are the only one who understands the dangers and can vanquish this scourge and set your followers free, then you have them hooked through fear. And if you can then also promise unlimited happiness/spiritual freedom/eternity then you have both the stick and the carrot. L. Ron Hubbard the "whole track SPs" as psychiatry. He at first sought their … [Read more...]

  Anything to get them in... Magic. Music. Dance lesson. Painting. Desperation to try to get "bodies in the shop."     Featured Attraction? Now it's a "jam session" at a new time   Why I joined staff? It made sense. Gosh -- did they tell you about the hours and the pay? And the futility of it all?   Just guess the answer to this riddle... They would use the same tagline for "Talk Therapy or Torture" -- anything a psych does is torture.

Where is the IAS? Part 4,764

August 18, 2019 By Mike Rinder 76 Comments

  OK, where is the IAS for the 4,764th time? They always claim that the "CCHR campaigns" are "what your donations buy." Really? How come CCHR is always fundraising? And can't even put up a billboard? Not even 10% of their goal raised in 6 months. Don't you clubbed seals see what is happening? Are you really this blind? By the way, CCHR, the "Billboard Babes" managed to get a billboard UP in a matter of weeks.... … [Read more...]

Thank you so much @azhlynne for your continued efforts to expose the lies told by the #psychoterrorcult that is #scientology. My daughter is being used as a tool of Fair Game -- which is the real violation of human rights. A brainwashed slave putting out Korean POW style videos.

Jack is 9 today. Funny, intelligent, kind and a perfectionist about everything he does, he makes my life a joy. Growing up too fast, but each day he becomes more of a companion.

The council was willing to make Mark the sole council-rep on the DDB, but because Mayor Hibbard also wanted to remain on the DDB they decided to simply ignore the DDBs request.

1. Longtime Scientologist Nancy Cartwright (voice of Bart Simpson) slamming "Going Clear," gives you some insight into Scientology talking points and how people like her remain trapped in Scientology.

Cartwright has donated over 20 million dollars to Scientology.

Yes, twenty.

Yes. And wild cult advocacy and education. 👍

Yashar Ali 🐘@yashar

Would it be fair to say you strongly associate me with wildlife advocacy and education?
