Thursday Funnies

October 10, 2019 By Mike Rinder 46 Comments

  Freedom for all California... One more empty building and California will be free at last! Not a chance ANYONE actually buys this. But the rah-rah seems to impress.   No we don't Not a one has EVER come back   Nothing quite like "Big Blue" It's ugly, dirty and empty. The celebration may be memorable, but not for the right reasons.   They're trying to sound fancy... If you have ever been to the "PAC Canteen" you will understand the crazy of them serving "lobster tail"   Scientology Thanksgiving  Not only are they NOT providing … [Read more...]

Join scientology Staff: No Pay but we “Offer Total Freedom”

August 12, 2019 By Mike Rinder 91 Comments

This poster has few words but says an awful lot. The "notice" at the bottom is clearly a legal disclaimer put there by lawyers to protect scientology. Scientology in Australia got into trouble with the government for not paying staff and providing inadequate health care and other benefits afforded all workers in Australia. They asserted that everyone on staff is a "volunteer" and pretty much got away with it. Can you imagine a "volunteer" of any other organization signing a 5 year contract of employment (maybe it's designated a "Volunteer Agreement" - but in spite of its name that is … [Read more...]

AOSHANZO Reaching For The Bottom

June 5, 2014 By Mike Rinder 51 Comments

This is supposed to be an Advanced Org. It is especially damning that they are reaching all the way down to the bottom of the Bridge when they have just celebrated the grand opening of the Sydney "ideal" org just a few miles away. Surely all the public are flocking to Sydney org? And the massive boom from there and the ideal org in Melbourne doesn't seem to be flooding the AOSH with public? But the good news, the Snr CS has got the cliches down  -- NOW is the time to arrive to progress fast, a turning point in the history of Scientology, the results speak for themselves.  And he is on the … [Read more...]

Sydney Up In Smoke?

May 30, 2014 By Mike Rinder 64 Comments

This story is worth republishing. Obviously the reporter was not intending to write a puff piece -- but regardless of his snide tone, his PHOTOS are amazing. A COMPLETELY EMPTY course room. Nobody visible on the ground floor except a receptionist. And he says there was only ONE person in the org that was not a staff member -- someone who he found dozing off in the course room. Compare this to the hype the church puts out to induce the sheeple into a coma of warm and fuzzy good feelings that their $14 million actually bought something other than MEST. (See recent article Sydney Is … [Read more...]

David Does Sydney

May 3, 2014 By Mike Rinder 141 Comments

  Bryan Seymour's Channel 7 News Story,  with footage of David Miscavige rehearsing Tony already has this on his site, but I wanted to include some other observations. Bryan told me they also blocked another national TV show (I assume it was Steve Cannane) and a national newspaper and rolled out some new "balloon tech" with people holding bunches of balloons in front of the media. These people have completely lost grip with reality, these are horrendous footnukes. Imagine spending $15 million to open a building to "flood people up the bridge" (that necessarily must … [Read more...]

The Kool Aid Drunks

April 19, 2014 By Mike Rinder 121 Comments

Unfortunately, and embarrassingly, this email epitomizes everything that is wrong with the "OT's" who are the main Miscavige Minions keeping the illusion of ideal orgs alive. My brother is the poster child for KoolAid drunks. At the least, this is useful as it is the first time anyone has actually said that Dear Leader is venturing to Sydney. It was pretty obvious from all the indications (they would not be closing the street or demanding everyone have a "ticket" if any lesser mortal were presiding over the grand re-opening of the same old Sydney Org). What is difficult to figure out … [Read more...]

The Street Will Be Completely Closed

April 16, 2014 By Mike Rinder 111 Comments

We would not want the undesirables getting a glimpse of Dear Leader, the Emperor with No Clothes. So the long-anticipated, joyous occasion of finally yanking the ribbon on this building that has been put there in order to move 5+ million people onto and up the Bridge, is being done out of the public eye.... Hardly consistent with the message "we are here and everyone is welcome" that they will tell the media and repeat endlessly on their website. Funny, I dont think the Australian media is going to buy it. Hell, I dont think the Australian public are going to buy it? "You want us to come in … [Read more...]

Sydney Ideal Org — No News Is No News

March 22, 2014 By Mike Rinder 84 Comments

I wonder what Melbourne "Ideal Org" has to say about this? Why is Sydney the "catalyst"? And I guess nobody even mentions Adelaide, Perth, Brisbane or Canberra.... They will NEVER be "ideal" until Miscavige decides to open his checkbook and put his money where his mouth is and buy them buildings because this IS the strategy for planetary clearing. You know, the one that is based on the "why" that orgs are trying to do too little and that just like a session, an org cannot succeed unless it has all the requisite parts in place FIRST. Ten years on and 80% of all the orgs STILL cannot succeed … [Read more...]

It Take Courage To Join Staff

February 19, 2014 By Mike Rinder 56 Comments

  From the Truth In Advertising file. For once. Well, except for the fact that there is an "OT Org" (AOSHANZO, no doubt about to "go Ideal" soon) that is really the "OT Org" if there is such a thing. Funny, all the hype about Sydney opening by the 1st of March has vanished like money given to the IAS.... … [Read more...]

Sydney Ideal Org

February 9, 2014 By Mike Rinder 60 Comments

Some news about the latest "Ideal Org" to blow smoke up the remaining butts that will occupy a seat at an event. I didnt post this email from a few weeks ago -- sort of got lost in other activities. And it was just a single email.  Following is what I wrote about it on 15 January.... Just 6 weeks away from the Grand Opening! And THEN we can START rocketing people up the Bridge. Because everyone knows, you can't get anyone up the Bridge unless you are "ideal." Mark your calendars everyone -- 1 March is the big day (I am taking bets now on when this will in fact occur -- anyone in Sydney … [Read more...]

Leah Remini and Mike Rinder share their outrage over the news that Scientology is going to try to repeat its defeat of the 2013 Garcia case by forcing the Danny Masterson accusers to drop their lawsuit and submit to the church's internal kangaroo court.

Opening position for Clearwater's negotiations with David Miscavige should be for Miscavige to show he wants a thriving downtown by a) recruiting a theater chain and b) stopping Disconnection. One brings a major draw to the district. Other shows they can change.
