Once again, it’s supposedly happening!
And what is it that is happening?
You would be mistaken if you believed that this is announcement of the opening of the building that has been sitting ready and empty for nearly a year now. One of the 3 that were going to be opened “in the first quarter” of 2023.
The poster leaves you with that impression. One from October did the same thing.
The fact that they are offering dinner tells you everything you need to know. These are fundraiser, recruitment events. Probably more geared towards recruitment at this point as it’s hard to raise funds now for an ideal org that has been completed and is sitting empty.
And here is confirmation that there is NO RIBBON YANKING EVENT in December in Chicago.
Finally, an added bonus. The “inside scoop” — looks like she will be revealing the “Way to Happiness”? The “inside scoop” is just another excuse to try to get some people in the doors.
It’s all so transparent. You wonder that anyone falls for any of these pitches ever.
PS: If you haven’t read the piece at the Underground Bunker today, please do so. Evidence that scientology has knowingly lied for years when accusing Leah and me of “inciting murder” at the Advanced Org in Sydney. Now, finally, court documents are available that show it was THEIR actions that caused the violence.

DSA Rebecca Of The Crossed Arms and Tight Smile That Doesn’t Reach Her Eyes…will update us on what? Unprecedented expansion on the 4th Dynamic? How the cult’s PR stats are straight up and vertical?
Well, yes, all those lies will constitute the first half of this “briefing”.
But rest assured that lots of time and energy will afterwards be spent on showing the clueless schmucks who show up for this farce how they can “help”…how they can contribute to Scientology’s real estate scam even further.
How sad this is, really. Such a waste, such a total waste, in every way.

“The fact that they’re offering dinner tells you everything you need to know.”
For our amusement, no truer quip has ever been offered.
Thanks for the laugh, Mike 🙂

If the “Church” or Miscavige is pulling something in it´s because they are Flourish and Prospering. If a scientologist or a wog is pulling something in it´s because they are Out ethics.
The scientologist has to pay for this,,,a lot.
C´mon OSA, cognite on this!

Ya, “it’s happening”. People are avoiding Scientology.

I read the article on Tony’s blog, Mike. What a tragic story. Rather than taking responsibility for failing to help that kid and his mother after agreeing to do so, they blame you and Leah for that very troubled 16-year-old’s actions?
Methinks the C.O.S.’s accusations doth speak quite loudly of their own unwillingness to take responsibility for their own actions and in-actions.

Those bloviating 1950s Madison Avenue ads only make me think “What are they hiding?” “Get the Scoop ? A scoop of what?”
Aquamarine says
“Get the Scoop”. Hubbard’s PR tech. “Mystery” as a ploy to draw people IN because, you know, they’re just curious, so darn curious, and they just have to know…says Hubbard. Possibly this works the first or the second time (it worked on me the first few times ). Some meaningless gimmick gets disclosed during the “briefing”.
Whatever the “scoop” is will mean nothing. There will be no real scoop. Just a lure, possibly about some celebrity interest in the thing, a manufactured PR ploy to get people to come to the thing, because they’re so very curious!
What all the Still Ins know but can never say out loud is that this is just another fundraiser, the purpose of which is to squeeze every last squeezable dime out of whomever is unfortunate enough to be sitting there. Anyone who has no plausible excuse to avoid the thing is a sitting duck. Back in the day when I was in, we ALL knew this. And trust me, today is no different. They – the Still Ins – ALL know this. They show up only because they can’t find some plausible excuse not to.

It’s brown and stench laden and comes from the arse of a Tasmanian Devil.

Indirectly heard that some Chicago staff members have been training at Flag for over 2 years and were finished but can’t leave until.whole team is finished.
Ammo Alamo says
If they could just get those good-for-nothing BTs to pull their weight – make a few donations, fill a few Staff spots – the cherch might be able to open one of those Moribund Morgs, ya know?
But, no-o-o-o! Hubbs had to invent useless invisible Body Crabs for his expensive Pick ‘n Flick “religious” experience.
My picketing sign is gonna read:
“I paid $200k for OT3 and all I got was Body Crabs!”
Alcoboy says
Good slogan!
