Foundation for a Drug Free World — Scientology Front Group

November 25, 2020 By Mike Rinder 19 Comments

One of scientology's most successful front groups has roped in another beauty contest winner, and hit upon a new way of gaining apparent credibility. Foundation for a Drug Free World has had some success in infiltrating a number of organizations, particularly through the work of Meghan Fialkoff. She has been covered a number of times at Tony Ortega's blog -- one article here. She is a star in the world of scientology. She was awarded an IAS Freedom medal. She is featured on scientology tv and in Freedom magazine. Many of the people she gets on board have no idea their participation … [Read more...]

Scientology is “Fun”

August 20, 2020 By Mike Rinder 122 Comments

  STAAD puppet Rodger Clark has produced a "sequel" to his earlier effort claiming scientology is "fun." He claims his earlier piece "struck a chord" with readers... Apparently the reader(s) is me.

He gets underway with this (after his happy … [Read more...]

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...]

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. ๐Ÿ‘

Yashar Ali ๐Ÿ˜@yashar

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

Part 2 with @sheltondesigner now available on #FairGamePodcast. We go deep into the RPF, #scientology's Thought Reform Program and the Truth Rundown "security checking" designed to gaslight a person that anything bad in #scientology is an invented lie. https://www.mikerindersblog.org/episode-36-critical-thinker-chris-shelton-part-2/

If you are a Scientology watcher or someone who wants to know more about cultic control methods, you're going to want to see this. The Truth Rundown is concentrated gaslighting and is the subject of the @MikeRinder and @LeahRemini podcast this week. https://youtu.be/x9fJkVJD0yQ
