I have often said that scientologists live in a bubble of delusion. But now it's official. Scientology have declared their ultimate "spiritual retreat" is now an official "bubble." It could not be more fitting that the Freewinds now has the stamp of approval from "Church Management" as an "official bubble." Anyone who has ever been to the Freewinds knows this is the most hermetically sealed bubble in all of scientology. Once you are in it, the outside world no longer exists and the only reality is the dream world of scientology. No contact with the outside world. Not even a way of … [Read more...]
The Next Big Thing — The Miscavige OEC
Apparently, the launch of the new Miscavige Organization Executive Course (OEC) is just around the corner. You know the old "green volumes" that contain Hubbard's policy letters on how to run a scientology organization? In fact ANY organization. In fact, the "technology" of how to run galactic civilizations because the system failed after a few million years, so Hubbard improved on it. At least, that was his story. These volumes you see below in a historical photo. Well, since the early 2000's, Miscavige has been claiming they are useless. And has been threatening to put … [Read more...]
Scientology Responds for Tom Cruise
How odd is this. Scientology is speaking as the PR representative of Tom Cruise. While he and his PR people remain silent. The man who laughs in the face of suppression and can confront and shatter any SP is apparently unable to confront some bad media. It would seem David Miscavige was upset that "nobody was coming to the defense of Tom" and so ordered his minions to put out a statement. To me, this is further indication that the whole thing was a publicity stunt that blew up in their faces. Or at the very least, Miscavige had praised Cruise for his "tough guy" image and told him he was … [Read more...]
Episode 21: Listener Questions Part 3
Today's episode is Leah and I responding to questions from listeners. We cover a lot of things in more detail than we had time to do on The Aftermath, and in many cases even more details than I can find the time to write about on the blog. A few documents we mentioned would be made available here and at fairgamepodcast.com. Scientology's COVID response: Tony Ortega has extensively covered scientology's response to the pandemic. Here is the Miscavige's briefing document where he calls COVID 19 a "planetary bullbait." Here are … [Read more...]
COVID – 19 Propaganda
Someone sent me a link to this new "book" about how wonderful scientology is for their brilliant handling of the COVID-19 situation. But of course, nobody gives them credit for the amazing job they have done. This lady seems to be trying to make a case for the enormous aid that scientology has provided. I doubt she has seen any such thing herself, but has just glanced at some photos and videos of Defcon7 spraying in some outpost in Africa, and just "knows" this "sort of thing" is happening all over the world, because after all, the VMs ARE the largest private relief force on earth (if you … [Read more...]
“Come On” Gibberish
Word is going out to try to get people to come back into orgs to watch the screening of a new "event." Apparently, "It's Time" and the subject is a "Brief Breath in Eternity" (which is a rather unfortunate subject for a briefing that is apparently about the amazing work scientology has done dealing with the "planetary bullbait" of COVID - 19) or how everyone is "stepping 3 feet back" (like 1 step forward and 3 back?) They are getting the hype out right away in typical scientology style -- "as soon as we have a date we will let you know." Hope the brief breath hasn't expired by the time … [Read more...]
Why Would Anyone Want To?
Why would anyone in their right mind want to enter a scientology propaganda center, let alone during a pandemic? This "Scientology Information Center" is in the lobby of the old Clearwater Bank building. It is the ONLY scientology "church" building you can walk into off the street in Clearwater. You cannot enter the Ft Harrison hotel, the Super Power building, the Sandcastle, Oak Cove, Osceola, West Coast, old Lee Arnold building, Coachman or any of the other buildings scientology owns in Clearwater, despite their claim of being "open" to the community. The ONLY building you are allowed … [Read more...]
Pretoria “Ideal” Org: Barely Alive But The Building’s Fine
Here are the latest news and accomplishments from the scientology outpost in Pretoria South Africa. Their number one priority is to protect their BUILDING! And then protect their staff. And then protect their public. That tells you everything there is to know about the state of scientology... The most important thing is not the people, it's the bricks and mortar. MEST. This single promotional item sums up scientology with that one statement. But they go on with a list of graduates -- I highlighted 3 recurring names. Didn't pay much attention to any other recurring … [Read more...]
Breaking News: Tampa Org is Now Open!
Tampa sent an email out last evening announcing they are "Open to the Public." They have implemented a few "minor guidelines" -- including following their own booklet on how to stay safe and wearing facemasks and gloves (gloves? even though the evidence shows COVID-19 is not transmitted via hard surfaces). It is going to be interesting to watch how much attrition scientology will suffer from this lockdown. I suspect there is a good percentage of their public who experienced the unusual peace and calm of not being constantly harassed by regges and don't ever want that headache to come … [Read more...]
How You Can Help End The Pandemic
Take a wild guess what the answer to this question is: "How you can help end the pandemic?" If you guessed "Give us your money" you just won yourself a one year free subscription to Impact magazine. If you guessed "Hand out our propaganda booklets" you won a one year free subscription to Freedom magazine. And if you answered both you win the Grand Prize -- a commendation for your file. They have 160,000 booklets they still need to distribute. Some in-house printing facility (Bridge or the Central Promo Center or something) has gotten their stats up selling these things at a profit to the … [Read more...]
