Of course he didn’t.

When you’re second in command of a borderless totalitarian state and cult of personality you can’t risk being asked about prison camps, forced abortions, conversion therapy, forced family separations, and the first in command physically abusing his workforce https://twitter.com/raminsetoodeh/status/1526945227382018051

@LeahRemini @MikeRinder Thank you for brining further awareness to the authorities of this cult! Scientology uses conversion therapy which is not illegal in Ca. I have been through plenty of it with this CULT and its abuse. Im grateful now to have my free and beautiful GAY life!

Bill Burr is doing a gig in Tampa on Friday. He is either terribly uninformed or is hedging his bets so he isn't #FairGamed by #scientology when he comes to town... Or maybe he just likes the media attention that comes with making absurd statements.
