Thursday Funnies

The bubble seems to have dried up with their promotional items this week. All worn out after a rousing celebration for Source perhaps? Too busy scraping up money to buy a birthday present for Captain Miscavige at the end of the month? Run out of things to say?   Well, this is a surprise They have a "Black Scientologist" taking a service at AOSH Africa! Of course, its at the bottom of the Bridge, nowhere near the OT levels. Wonder how many people there are in this "Black Scientologists" group?   The Ideal Attitude? Simple: hand over everything you have of … [Read more...]

Big Time Dissemination in Vancouver…

March 19, 2022 By Mike Rinder 32 Comments

They're really making serious inroads in Clearing The Planet in Vancouver. They have completed the first step -- by placing 4 stand up displays of booklets promoting free personality tests. Yes, 4 of them. And boy are they proud of this. It's the biggest dissemination effort they have ever made in Vancouver apparently. When Ron said to "Think Big" in order to reach St. Hill size, apparently this is exactly the sort of massive infiltration into society he was referring to. With this sort of thinking pervading the Vancouver scientology bubble, they should have an Ideal Org there before … [Read more...]

  Phoenix Rising in Albuquerque They should probably pay more attention to the dead phoenix in Phoenix where the ideal org is a morgue.

New revelations from @TroMcManus. Of course #scientology has records that document their abuses but claim they can keep them secret. The USSC disagrees, but they continue to assert it and when law enforcement doesn't press they get away with murder. When will it end?

Tracey McManus@TroMcManus

Valeska Paris sued Scientology last month in Tampa federal court, alleging she was trafficked as a child.

Three years ago, she tried to pursue criminal charges.

Clearwater Police couldn’t get evidence from the church.

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

Tom Cruise took a selfie with a fan after his #Cannes2022 talk. But he didn’t take any questions from the audience:

@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!
