The minions of the STAND League are always on the lookout for something to cry victim about.
Wil Seabrook must have a big amends project he is trying to complete. He racked up a couple of hours and an item for his Liability formula (“I published an article attacking the SP’s”). Even for the whiners at the STAND League, this one is really a stretch.
Apparently, Kohler had the nerve to advertise in publications that run stories that offend scientology. Frankly, these days, just about every media outlet has something negative to say about scientology. So you could do an article like this about every major corporate advertiser in the US.
As expected, the rambling nothingburger of Mr. Seabrook is thin on substance. In fact thin is being kind.
He starts with some sentimental (and irrelevant) tripe:
Having lived overseas and traveled all over the world for most of my young life, I am uniquely proud to be an American. Maybe it’s something about “absence makes the heart grow fonder…”
He then says one of his “favorite places to spend time is in Kohler, Wisconsin.” Yeah, right. And some stroking about how wonderfully American it is and what a wonderful, all-American company Kohler is and how they make such wonderful bathroom fixtures: “that craftsmanship and quality of their work is perfectly at home in facilities like our Ideal Churches designed and built with such care.” (with a link to the scientology.org website of course).
And then, this:
So try to imagine what it’s like to write a letter to executives of Kohler (a company I admire and who clearly cares about the welfare of their employees and the greater community) to let them know they are funding hate speech through their advertising in A360 Media magazines which spew bigotry and bias about my religion, its members and its leadership, only to receive deafening silence in return.
Oh, the pain. The sacrifice. The heartache.
And then some more random rambling, and never mentions what terrible crime of hateful reporting A360 media has done? just no mention at all. Maybe they ran with the planted stories that Tom Cruise “might be” leaving scientology that his PR people put out before his latest offering is released?
Or committed the heinous crime of covering the Danny Masterson case, reporting that he is facing trial on 3 counts of rape?
Without any specifics, Wil wants Kohler to stop advertising their products in any magazine published by A360 media. He accuses them of “paying for hate.”
And I think he might be serious.
The American Club in Kohler, Wisconsin is one of my favorite places. It has amazing golf courses, including a links course along the shores of Lake Michigan.
And he’s right – Kohler makes some of the best fixtures!
Now that I know Kohler “offends” Scientology, I’m reminded to book a Fall getaway weekend there ….
Freedom Magazine’s research into the Psych Deep State reveals that Kohler faucets were secretly developed by Big Pharma in order to maximize the delivery of fluoride into drinking water.
Worse, Kohler faucets are surreptitiously designed to act as 5G receivers and actually transmit 5G into homes.
COB has ordered all Kohler faucets ripped out of all Scientology facilities globally on a NOW NOW NOW basis. Crews are working 24/7 until the Psych menace of Kohler faucets is eradicated from our MEST real estate portfolio.
Moreover and whereupon, COB has further ordered all Kohler toilet flush valves be ripped out from all Ideal Org toilets and urinals.
Scientology will be without running water to all of our bathroom faucets, toilets, and SO kitchens and food preps areas until suitable hate-free plumbing can be found and installed. In the interim, hand sanitizers, bottled water, and Port-a-Potties will be set up.
We in RTC realize that using a Port-a-Potty in the sweltering summer heat and humidity of Flag, Los Angeles, or anywhere else will be difficult. But COB has called for this sacrifice to protest hate and oppression.
Of course, COB is exempt and will continue to use his special ecclesiastical air-conditioned bathroom with its golden commode and bespoke toilet tissue.
Meanwhile, his church continues to advertise on Google – one of the most evil corporations on the face of the planet.
This Seabrook guy sort of reminds me of a less confronting version of a grifter like Jesse Jackson. He’s doing the dilettante “strongly worded letter to the editor” thing.
Jesse at least gets down to the street level and gets his hands dirty where he would target some corporation like Safeway to extort money from them, in person.

Wil Seabrook
June 7, 2021
Continuing the Bullshit and Hysteria.
And the STAAD minions are CERTAIN they’re fighting the good fight, and actually effecting “needed” changes in wog society.
IRL WE are the only people paying any attention to them, and WE’re LAUGHING at their pitiable attempts to strike blows.
Again, the scientologist will always be the last to know the truth about scientology.
Once they learn the truth, they cannot be scientologists for very much longer.
Wil, you at least have a hint of what an ideal town is. Cheerful friendly kids and happy neighbors spending time in an easy-going wholesome fashion – at a relaxed and contented pace.
Here’s a hint: if Kohler is one of your favorite places, maybe it is because of what it doesn’t have. No ideal org, no sea org, no scientology, no disconnection, no insane contracts, no mind-numbing ‘tech’, no working mad hours on today’s Hill 10, no screaming executives…and so on.
I imagine that Norman Rockwell would rather shoot himself than belong to the cult that is scientology.
Wil, if absence makes your heart grow fonder, you should just keep rolling on through and get more of that absence under your belt. Come home when you’ve learned a thing or two.
If I recall correctly, wasn’t Norman Rockwell’s granddaughter, Jessica Rockwell, a Scn? I met her at some Scn event.
Cindy – cousin of iconic American painter, Norman Rockwell, here is website for Jessica Rockwell: https://www.rockwellportraits.com/
To my light memory, she was in the Sea Org for a time then exited to become a happily married person and a public. While in the S.O., did she do the lion against a green jungle background painting that adorned each Academy Level course pack and taped lecture set?
The telephone number on her website has a (727) area code, suggesting Clearwater area in Florida.
Peridot, Thanks for the info re Jessica Rockwell.
Right, Zola. The ideal community has nothing in common with the society scientology would force upon the world.
in scientology, you can’t waste production time like that with impunity. work, work, nose to the grindstone, and all that.
Hear, Hear Mike. Scientology does not in any consistent way adhere to literary or journalistic standards in what they put out to showcase their brand. Ramblings like these make it seem like a group of junior high school pimply-faced insecure teenagers are running the operation. Oh wait, are they?
Hey, didn’t the head “junior high school pimply-faced insecure teenager” turn 60 fairly recently? “The kid” never did mature past Junior High school sensibilities.
I for one am OUTRAGED … and so later this year I will bypass my usual season in Kohler and winter in nearby Sheboygan! It will require sacrifice on my part as I do so love to live the Norman Rockwell life, but I will not be a party to any entity that advertises in US magazine … I’m a PEOPLE person!
*Go Bucks!
Ha Ha! Of course, no sane person “Winters” in Sheboygan, much less anywhere else in Wisconsin! All small towns in Wisconsin sound like Wil’s description of Kohler, and any small town in Wisconsin would not welcome his attitude. He would be laughed out of the corner tavern in any great Wisconsin town!! Of course, I would first offer to buy him a shot, but he doesn’t sound like someone I would care to share a drink with!
*Go Bucks!
*GO Eagles!
Looking around, it seems there’s no publication I see which would qualify for any company’s ads in STAAD’S eyes. These days, with scn being so toothless, most pubs and TV outlets aren’t as scared to follow the sordid tales coming out of scientology and its loosely-bound constellation of front groups and celebrities, etc. scientology is a GOLDMINE of clickbait stories these days.

It appears that this story was first published by the Daily Telegraph in Australia (immediately above), but so far is pay-walled everywhere. Does anyone have access?
NOTE: A Google snippet of the story indicates that the missing woman’s name is Marion Barter.

All of Rupert’s main newspapers are pay walled. How dare people want to read free news!
How DARE an entrepreneur try to make some money in a dying industry?
I know Wil Seabrook. I have worked with him. I have made comments before about the cults habit of taking talented people and warping them till they drop their art and shill for the cherch and become petty social media hit men and women. Wil is a great singer and songwriter. Now his talents are being wasted on writing sniveling, whiny articles for the Scientology defense league of idiots.
It makes me want to double my efforts to expose Hubbard’s toxic, destructive cult.
I have brilliant, talented humorous friends still in. One just attested to clear this week. He is gay, and has to endure the special attention that brings to someone trying to go clear and gay at the same time.
It’s something I can’t just ignore.
Your friend is trying to “go gay” while trying to attest to ‘clear’?
(The Devil makes me do it.)
This shows the church has changed some of its policies in order to get along and appear more mainstream. It used to be that if you were gay you were not allowed auditing and had to petition to try to get it. You could train but not get auditing. And if you were gay they certainly would not let you on staff back in the day. I knew a gay guy who tried to join SO in the late 70’s early 80’s. They did the routing in A to J check and found out he was gay and said no way he could join SO. He was escorted out.
I think it’s more likely that $crambleformoreofyourmoneybeforewedisappearology is trying everything to rake in more cash before it goes the way of the oozlum bird. That, or Dipshittus Mephiticus needs a new hair transplant.
Lol, my wording is always, for lack of a better word, rough!!
I tell you what is rough, watching friends that don’t know the truth spend a ton of money, waste their time and submit to the mental and psychological abuse of going up the bridge. And if anyone is asking, my opinion is that anyone that has a big TARGET on their back gets mistreated. The choich takes advantage of those with “out-ethics” and the gay lifestyle falls into that. That isn’t my adjudication, it’s what the choich does.
In the meanwhile, ex-scientologists argue over what parts of the tek are really good and what parts aren’t.
I must be missing something. Or maybe they’re missing something.
OMG, psychosis on top of paranoia. I guess that describes scientology too.
Real stated: “OMG, psychosis on top of paranoia. I guess that describes scientology too.”
And it describes its founder as well.
100% truth Jere!
