I have explained this before but the question continues to be raised -- why is David Miscavige so obsessed with purchasing real estate? I am answering here as succinctly as possible. This strategy is not just the "ideal org" program, it also includes buying former homes and offices of L. Ron Hubbard, purchasing a redundant TV studio (KCET), and superfluous audio recording studio (Mad Hatter), buying properties to house printing presses and a "dissemination center" and other properties for Narconon, Applied Scholastics and the Way to Happiness Fdn. This real estate strategy serves several … [Read more...]
Planetary Clearing is Unreal — Some Simple Math
Malmo is an "ideal org." Being "ideal" brings with it guaranteed 10X expansion according to the hype peddled by Miscavige. Yet this org is announcing that they do not even have 100 people on service in their "ideal" org in a week. It’s their goal to achieve this tiny target! According to Hubbard, these orgs are all supposed to be the "size of Old St Hill." One of the measurements of "St Hill size" is 200 student in the Academy. And 1000 WDAH per week. If every preclear was receiving an intensive a week, that would mean 80 preclears. That is a total of 280 people on service in DIV 4 each w … [Read more...]
The Insanity Inside the Scientology Bubble Grows
U Another demonstration of how utterly unreal Scientologists are. They are indoctrinated to think they are taking over the world, and they buy it -- yet in reality are having zero impact on anything. But it’s even worse than that. For some reason they insist on announcing their incompetence/ineffectiveness to the world at large. They are proud of the fact, or literally too stupid to understand what they are saying, that there are 54 nations in Africa and 1.2 billion people — but in 74 years they still only have orgs in 2 of those 54 nations and have only reached a few hundred thou … [Read more...]
Link to Every Episode of Leah Remini: Scientology and The Aftermath
Many people, myself included, have wondered how to access episodes of Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath. A reader provided a link to an archive which contains all the episodes: https://archive.org/details/leahreminiscientologyandtheaftermath/Leah+Remini+-+Scientology+and+the+Aftermath/S01E01+-+Disconnection+(1080p).mkv I am posting this here so everyone can find these. … [Read more...]
Columbus Expanded “Manifold” Times
Another example of scientology shooting itself in the foot with their own statistics. This org Org is manned primarily with Sea Org members— Kathleen Olsen was one of those shipped off to this org that the Aftermath Foundation helped to escape. Columbus became “ideal” 4 years ago. Apparently what they are most proud of (perhaps more accurately, the least embarrassing thing they can point to) is selling 11,000 books and getting “over 700” people onto their first service. Not a word about the real stats that are supposed to measure the success of an org: how many Clears and Class V audi … [Read more...]
Some Scientology Stats from Inside the Bubble
Some information recently leaked from inside the bubble about what the clubbed seals are telling themselves to feel good. They are now adding up the CUMULATIVE statistics of all "ideal orgs" in the US "since they became ideal." I am not going to go through the exercise of trying to add up how many weeks of cumulative statistics this is -- just Buffalo, NY and SFO between them are 20 years x 52 weeks x 3 orgs = 312o weeks. There are, according to the scientology.org website 33 "ideal orgs" in the US, the last of which (Ventura) opened in Feb 2020. So, all of them have been opened between … [Read more...]
The Scientology Way: Overpromise and Underdeliver
Hubbard wrote about the "Conditions of Exchange" and scientology uses this as their bible, operating at "Condition 1" -- "A group which takes in money but does not deliver anything in exchange. This is called rip-off. It is the exchange condition of robbers, tax men, governments and other criminal elements." This is today the hallmark of scientology. Taking money and delivering nothing. The latest promises concern the "National Church of Scientology for Australia." Canberra is a small city. Nobody ever goes there unless they have government business. Everything that happens in … [Read more...]
More Ideal Org Fail
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 … [Read more...]
Salt Lake City Ideal Org is Dead — Just Like The Rest of Them
A couple of contributors took a trip to Salt Lake City and decided to swing by the ideal morgue there. Here is their report: It's a nice large building with reasonable landscaping. Compared to San Francisco, Portland, Sacramento, and Seattle, which all look empty, this one hides its emptiness nicely with solid brick walls. As far as location, in a town with monolithic Mormon temples of worship and large Lutheran cathedrals, this looks like a dental complex, or some non-religious building. But it does look good. There were a few cars in the lot during a prime time for s … [Read more...]
“OT IX and X are closer than you think” – David Miscavige April 1993
Captain Miscavige made this announcement more than 30 years ago. Had you surveyed anyone who attended this monumental/epic/watershed event, what does "closer than you think" mean, I guarantee not one of them would have said anything beyond 5 years. Most would have responded with 1 or 2 years at most. This once fresh, then moldy and now petrified carrot continues to be dangled in front of the faithful donkeys -- though talk of it has been replaced in the main with self-congratulatory hype about "ideal orgs." According to this promotional piece, Captain Miscavige (this was back when he … [Read more...]
