If you listen to any of the statements that emanate from the bubble, whether from the mouth of Dear Leader himself, or other minions, they shout from the rooftops how the "ideal orgs" are "the turning point in the universe" and "the salvation of this sector" and are "bringing about planetary clearing." Of course, everyone outside the bubble knows its garbage, but it isnt often we get this sort of report from INSIDE an "ideal org." And not just ANY ideal org, but the much ballyhooed "ideal org" in the "first Scientology city" -- Portland. You will recall Dear Leader yanked their chain … [Read more...]
The Kool Aid Drunks
Unfortunately, and embarrassingly, this email epitomizes everything that is wrong with the "OT's" who are the main Miscavige Minions keeping the illusion of ideal orgs alive. My brother is the poster child for KoolAid drunks. At the least, this is useful as it is the first time anyone has actually said that Dear Leader is venturing to Sydney. It was pretty obvious from all the indications (they would not be closing the street or demanding everyone have a "ticket" if any lesser mortal were presiding over the grand re-opening of the same old Sydney Org). What is difficult to figure out … [Read more...]
Ideal Vulturing
A Special Correspondent sent this in as a comment on the latest blog post, but I thought it deserved a bit more attention. I received this from Jeremy Arezzini, Portland Ideal org fundraiser and long time Registrar at Portland CC then Portland Org, also the guy who donated 1 million to Valley (?) ideal org, in their promo of a few months ago. I don’t know how a staff member came up with a million bucks to donate, besides his commissions from ideal org fundraising (?) Subject: Important Personal Comm From Jeremy Arezzini! Date: Thu, 17 Apr 2014 17:52:05 - … [Read more...]
Vulture Culture Trickle Down
The Vulture Culture is spreading its wings and trickling down to the lowest levels of the hierarchy. "Give us your money and we will bestow a corny status on you" is the flavor of the month. Even getting a grant is ground for begging for money.... Boris Levitsky? Returned from the grave? Dear Scientologist: CCHR OC recently received a grant from Google in the amount of $10,000 per month worth of Pay Per Click Advertising to be used in our Orange County anti-psych campaigns. This Grant will go a long way in helping Orange County residents … [Read more...]
The OTC Security Hammer Is Dropping
Apparently hushmail didnt solve the problem, so now they have a new message right at the top of the OTC minutes: Note: The minutes are for the sole use of Valley OTC members. All members receive a copy. Please do not forward the minutes to anyone else for any reason. Apparently there are all sorts of measures being taken to try to stem the flow of information outside the bubble. One might ask why that is of such concern. Of course it is merely information they WANT to impart to the "OTC members" -- if it is true, how could it be so damaging? But that is like asking why if you are opening a … [Read more...]
Surviving Scientology Radio Launches
by Jeffrey Augustine With over 1,500,000 views and 8,300+ subscribers in one year, Karen’s Surviving Scientology YouTube channel is a tremendous success in exposing the human rights abuses, lies, and greed of David Miscavige and the Church of Scientology. In order to build on that success, Karen and I have just launched Surviving Scientology Radio so we can do podcasts. Podcasts allow for in depth interviews with people. We can also break news faster as it happens. Karen and I are proud to have Mike Rinder as our first guest. Please listen in on your iPod or other mobile device, or eve … [Read more...]
The Street Will Be Completely Closed
We would not want the undesirables getting a glimpse of Dear Leader, the Emperor with No Clothes. So the long-anticipated, joyous occasion of finally yanking the ribbon on this building that has been put there in order to move 5+ million people onto and up the Bridge, is being done out of the public eye.... Hardly consistent with the message "we are here and everyone is welcome" that they will tell the media and repeat endlessly on their website. Funny, I dont think the Australian media is going to buy it. Hell, I dont think the Australian public are going to buy it? "You want us to come in … [Read more...]
Ideal Golf — The New Route To Spiritual Satisfaction
Really? What next, ideal teeth brushing? Ideal garbage collection? Ideal ideals? Or maybe this is a pilot for a new rundown -- a round of Texas Scramble apparently generates "spiritual satisfaction!!" Could this be the new "Cause Re-resurgence Rundown"? OT IX? Duffers unite -- you can now attain spiritual salvation for the small cost of a round of golf. And every par hole moves you a step closer to the top of the bridge (henceforth to be called the Spiritual Leaderboard). Oi vey. … [Read more...]
Come Sing At Graduation
This is a desperate email sent out at 5:15pm on Friday evening. As the Special Correspondent who sent this to me noted, recently AOSHUK was crowing over the fact their "courserooms are full" of people on the Student Hat and "GAG II line-up". If so, where did they all go? I wonder if this song is going to be in the fine tradition of other infamous songs -- from AOSHEU to Birmingham to Valley. Shudder at the thought. Probably the only truth in here is "being able to sing is not a requirement." What out ethics Craig Mathieson has been up to? Everyone from UK will all have the same … [Read more...]
CC Int Stat Report
Another accidental disclosure of stats you would never see at an International Event where all graphs look liked they have been neutered. But the first interesting thing about this is the LRH quote. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the ENTIRE justification for the Holy Grail of getting 10,000 on Solo NOTs. That is everything there is on the subject that is not just hype. But here we go -- this is by FAR the largest Class V org on earth. It dwarfs all other Class V orgs and outside of St Hill Fdn (which hardly exists) it is the only Sea Org Class V org (though Tampa is a semi-SO Class V org with … [Read more...]
