This promotional item reminded me of something about the promise of the “ideal org” program…
Miscavige heavily promoted that these orgs would generate new Missions, Narconons, WISE and Dianetics Groups, WTH chapters etc etc in their zones and that this would result in massive international expansion as those mission would then turn into orgs and the pattern would be repeated.
He even had a graphic made to illustrate this, with a caption that reads:
“The answer to planetary clearing is to make each one of our orgs a Central Organization, responsible for every sector of Scientology activity across an entire geographic zone.”
So, how many new Missions, groups, Narconon etc have opened around Kansas City in the last four years.
ZERO. Not a single one.
In fact, since the ideal org program was launched, the number of scientology missions has shrunk to less than half, Narconon has reduced to less than half its former number and the same thing with Dianetics Groups, WTH chapters and everything else.
Scientology is experiencing its fastest contraction ever. Straight down and vertical.

You know how Dave asked every morning “who blew”?
Well, there’s going to be a day pretty soon that there will be no one to ask that question — cause Davy will have already blown with all his money and that’s that.
Ammo Alamo says
Could even a small org stay open with just one member left?
I guess we can just wait and find out.
p.s. No need to lock the door on your last trip out. Hubbs said something about “the work” being free, so…
p.p.s. And don’t forget to send any remaining bank balance to Miscabbage.

I think “straight down and circling” (as shit does when flushed) is more appropriate Mike.

No OTs anywhere says
LRH products are the problem.
Word of mouth defeats glitz marketing.
Past lives pseudo-therapy and exorcism of Xenu’s R6 implanted body-thetans are hard products to sell.
It’s hard to overcome the “no OTs” results of the Hubbard quackery.
No results and word of mouth has defeated Hubbard’s false promises.

Gosh, what a surprise.

The clams cried out for direction
As things were crashing
DM came up with an “Ideal” scam. (see what I did there)
As things were crashing
Greatness was promised (in the future)
As things were crashing
The clams were mollified
As things were crashing
They gave Dave their cash (earned, borrowed or stolen)
As things were crashing
Accountability was neither asked for nor offered
As things kept crashing
They gave Dave their subservience
As things kept crashing
Blind eyes, deaf ears and ignoring the obvious became the hottest trend
As things kept crashing, HARD
Carry on, Dave.

INOROSIS = The ignoring of the obvious.

What’s becoming more and more apparent to me is how the COS’ questionable reputation has started to take on a noticeable decay that’s spreading organically. It’s no longer just Rinder, Ortega, and the scores of other prominent critics. It’s not just the social and mainstream media, nor is it even the lawsuits. It’s now seeped into the consciousness of the general public on a near global scale.
I wonder how long the COS will continue flailing in the dark at their mythical pychs and SPs while ignoring a general public that is coming to the realization and understanding of what their church is really about. I’m envisioning a scene similar to the movie “The Naked Jungle” with David Miscavige as Charlton Heston surrounded by approaching hordes of army ants. Pass the popcorn, please.

As long as Dracula Moneydrinker can keep sucking up that wonderful life giving green cash blood to pump into his banks he’ll keep bleeding $camatology until it’s just a pile of shrivelled corpses. Then he’ll start slowly rolling over the bodies with a steamroller to get the green cash blood that still remains.

To put it in scientologese: miscavige, in addition to being a suppressive, is the number one squirrel of all times.
And none of them in the cult want to see it.
They will end up like the dodo birds in the movie Ice Age.

Just did a quick check of my IRS Exempt Organization database archives.
Back in in 2014 there were 30 locations listed using the name ‘NARCONON’. As of Sept 2023 there are only 11 ‘NARCONON’ locations listed.
It’s possible some of the 19 locations ‘disappeared’ because of name changes due to NARCONON’s bad PR rep. But most of them are just gone.
