Miscavige probably wishes he could rip out their tongues so the staff focuses on their jobs instead of on gossiping, but even he is limited in what he can get away with. At least until the bribes take effect…
I’ve wasted years thinking about the mentality of Sea Org members as the years roll along.
I was a 75 to 03 time slot in Sea Org, first encountering some PAC Sea Orgers, then Flag at Clearwater Sea Orgers, the Apollo vets being the top dogs, of them, there were mainly first gen Sea Orgers, many who’d been quite successful individuals in life before they joined Sea Org and joined the Apollo.
Scientology is a quackery pseudo-therapy/exorcism operation, enforcing totalitarian rules on it’s members forcing them to do the quackery which never alleviates anyone’s mental issues, and only makes it a foul game those stuck in Scientology are forced to play along with. Hubbard’s quackery totalitarian game.
Younger Scientologists taking the reigns of this mess only make the mess worse, they have no wits to internally dismantle the totalitarian rules they get stuck within.
Quitting, re-educating, getting outside real life jobs and careers, is the only sane option.
Thank goodness for the the Aftermath Fdn and I hope everyone donates to it.
Bubble life – run, owned & created by a sociopathic criminals. A Scientologist aids & abets that criminality even if they don’t know it and are very much an alien if they ever step outside it. What a horrible existence!
In a world that has no idea what stupidity is, Scientology strives to hide itself in its founder’s creation, yet accepts COB’s transgressions as gospel.
Square peg, meet multiple round holes…
What is needed, IMHO, if for some senior leader to jump.
Someone is is very knowledgeable about the depth and breadth of the Scientology investments.
Someone who can describe how the entire money flow works from selling courses, obtaining large donations right up to moving monies into real estate.
And how little is being spent on so called humanitarian endeavors.
At the end of the day Scientology, IMHO, is nothing but another money machine. Fleecing anyone and everyone that gets involved to the greatest extent possible.
That’s a good idea in theory, Brett.
…But senior leaders have jumped before. There HAVE been some. For example, Mike was the international spokesperson for Scientology. He was the “face” of Scientology.
The problem has been that David Miscavige has had the corporate organization in a “legal chokehold” for decades. The only hope for reform would be if that legal chokehold were somehow broken or DM was incarcerated.
A new leader will not be able to handle the bullshit happened… he would re-re-re establish all changes David made… Super Hero David is super certain to be right… “Can you be right?”… surely you can, but… you have to know te truth… and the truth is in Scientoloy something which has LRH thought… and someway around his thoughts were wrong. Like Hawaii – wasn’t there 75 Million years ago… impossible to get implnted at this place… so handle something which was never there… and this is like Masterson, he did nothing – others did pull it in… you make the victim (a person who disliked something you did)… and then you have a problem… a problem…
And their “banks” FORCED Danny to drug their drinks so he could 8-C them to bed while they were unconscious and then perform anal sex on them without their understanding or any attempt to get their consent.
That’s just so wrong on so many levels.
It seems, in his little mind that they didn’t so much “pull it in” as he just HAD to ‘push it in’, sick puppy that he is, evidently:
Mr “D.J. Donkey Punch”.
AND he’s not been hit HARD for the out 2-D outside of his marriage? Used to be that mere “2-D flows”, whatever that is, from a married crew member could land them in SERIOUS hot water with the Ethics Officer/MAA. I would never last in today’s fiefdom calling itself scientology because I flirt with pretty ladies freely, even with my wife at hand. She knows I’m not “shopping” and that I don’t respond seriously to them if they do flirt back. When I was a little kid, I was taught NOT to do the many, many things us boys did to the pretty little girls to get their attention: … No, the skill that would serve me best in life was the ability to make the pretty girls smile. And I’ve grown to LOVE the reward of the smile. it’s my favorite thing in life. And you should SEE how hard I flirt with the wife to get that smile after 30 years together: She gives me feedback on which “lines” worked, or not-so-much, and which approaches might work better to tease a smile out. That started when she declared me a
horrible flirt” and that practice wasn’t “making perfect”.
They’ve needed a new leader since 1986. The trouble was that Hubbard didn’t make his wishes explicitly known or turn over his hats in those formal ceremonies he so LOVED: Overboarding, the “Kali process/ceremony/whatever. Miscavige took those errors and RAN … everything into the ground. Most effective SP ever in scientology — unless you count LRH as a candidate (I do.).
The Oath Of Enlistment in the armed forces of the United States included the promise to uphold and defend the Constitution. The oath was changed in 1961. If that promise was in the oath Hubbard took then Hubbard himself may qualify as a SP.
Wait. How was it changed? I joined the Army in 1984 and my oath included a promise to uphold and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.

The colors being used are the same as the Ukrainian flag. Nice way to show support RB.

That’s their 2,479th gallon of paint.
Still no decent colors.
Jere Lull says
Why IS their “thang” about painting things BLUE? Big Blue looks HIDEOUS!
At least they left the Fort Harrison pretty much the standard local colors.
TrevAnon says
Just noting that RB only needs to give the paint roller a blue color for a new episode.
(And yellow after that, and so on, and so forth yada yada….)

This trial is going to do some serious harm to what is left of the church.
Good!

Scientologists talk and think exactly like that.
