We continue our discussion from last week about Committees of Evidence with Claire Headley, now covering the snitch culture of scientology and the subject of Knowledge Reports. It is one of the most important control mechanisms within the scientology world. As we normally do, I have included documents that give the whole story of things we mention. Scientology Org Board outline, the full "7 Division Org Board":   The "Hubbard Communications Office" Div 1 org board.

We continue breaking down the Bridge to total Freedom towards the level of Clear with Bruce Hines. It's the stairway to heaven with turnstiles at every step. The State of Clear -- halfway up the Bridge   What is the E-Meter?    Leah mentions her therapist's write-up on the E-Meter and she quotes from a small part of it.

Watch #TheDeepEnd on Hulu. Fascinating 4 part doc study of cult leader @_tealswan by Jon Kasbe and @BitsSola. Also listen to interview by @sarahjedmondson and @nippyames on @alittlebitculty podcast. Cult leaders are all cut from the same cloth. My take: https://www.mikerindersblog.org/off-the-deep-end/

Because everyone is currently in love with Tom cruise again due to maverick and have conveniently forgotten he’s a weird little carnival barker for a dangerous cult, here’s your reminder to check out #ScientologyTheAftermath on Netflix!
