CCHR Hypocrisy

October 11, 2020 By Mike Rinder 54 Comments

CCHR people are amazing. They churn out an apparently endless stream of accusations about psychiatry that complain about the psychs doing exactly what they do every day- and utterly devoid of irony. Forced labor? How about being on staff in a scientology org? Or even more, in the Sea Org?     Money motivation?   Labelling people? This is perhaps the most ironic of all. Wogs. PTS. SP. Type 3. etc etc etc Apart from the different labels, the only thing this cartoon has wrong is that the person would be directed to the registrar rather than a … [Read more...]

Irony? They’ve Never Heard The Word

September 26, 2020 By Mike Rinder 27 Comments

The anti-psych brigade, with Ken Cramer driving the clown car, are at it again. Change the sign in his cartoon below from psychiatrist to scientologist and it would be a far more accurate depiction. While psychiatrists may charge fees for their services, scientology is obsessed with getting people's money. There are sales courses and finding ruins and bringing up to need of change and Big League Sales and of course, MAKE MONEY. MAKE MORE MONEY. I don't think you could find a psychiatric text on how to go about getting money from people, but there are volumes of them in … [Read more...]

Ken Cramer — Joker and Degrader

September 16, 2020 By Mike Rinder 33 Comments

Ken Cramer apparently thinks he is really cool. So proud of himself that he sent this out as an email to his "supporters" to prove how causative he is over psychs and their new "attack method" -- being polite! Someone with his cult mindset can turn ANYTHING into an "attack" by "the psychs." Honestly, Cramer is such a smarmy 1.1 Joker and Degrader he gives scientologists a bad name. And that's not an easy task. He's the driver of a broken down clown car of fools and he seems to think he is cruising down the autobahn at 200 mph behind the wheel of a Bugatti. But that being said, I … [Read more...]

CCHR “Taking Down Psychiatry”

June 28, 2020 By Mike Rinder 21 Comments

This is the sort of thing that is announced with enormous fanfare by the IAS with "this is what your donations buy". When something like this is found, CCHR jumps on it and claims it as a "psych prosecution" and not only that, it is "President of the Alaska Psychiatric Association." It will be added to other incidents they can scrounge up from anywhere they can find them and become part of a typical announcement in the category of "CCHR Wins" -- “this year more psychs were prosecuted than ever, a total of 1,047, thanks to the leadership of CCHR" and then at the end "You contributions to the … [Read more...]

The Black Bag Department

March 13, 2020 By Mike Rinder 16 Comments

See my announcement on Friday -- I am revisiting earlier posts during my vacation. Each day there will be a different one. Marty has been doing a good job of exposing the unalterable policies of the church concerning dealing with perceived enemies. One aspect not much discussed is who are the "outside professionals" hired to do the dirty work. And while there is a lot that is done by Sea Org OSA staff, Class V (local DSAs like Mark Warburg and John Carmichael) and public Scientologists (John Allender, Ed Bryan and Co) there is work that requires specific skills, including licenses to … [Read more...]
