It’s not a Freewinds event – so there is no $30 fee
OMG…
Battlefield Earth NOT a NY Times bestseller again…
Remember when they announced it? But it has NOT appeared on any bestseller list this year.
A Verbal Tech Party?
Back in the day, nobody would have DARED write something like this.
Labor for Valley
Just a few more years of blood, sweat and tears to go before they have a larger, emptier building like all the others…
Survey Data
Someone filled this in… Honestly.
The International OT Boom
Between AOSHUK and AOSHEU they have 192 people on OT levels. Add up the populations of these countries (UK, Europe, Russia etc etc) and this is a complete joke. Not close to one in a million. And many are retreads. They are PROUD of this as if it proves they are “impinging.”
You don’t have to be OT to experience OT Phenonema
Then what is the point exactly? If the run of the mill “homo sap” can do it, why pay hundreds of thousands?
OT is not really OT…
Vampire Repellant?
Hmmm. This is self-defeating if the head vampire is REALLY is teaching people how to avoid giving money to regges. I don’t think so.
The Wacky Scots
Just. Plain. Weird.
Head Vampire speaks…
And they say they don’t make promises about what you attain.
Best IAS Event ever
Where have I heard that before? And you gotta hand it to their graphic designer. This is a 10.
Trying to out-wacky the Scots perhaps?
More Wack
But they could also use a spell checker in the Middle Kingdom or Middle Ages or whenever or wherever they think they are.
Woopee — more filing!
And boy, is it FUN! Just look at those plastered on fake smiles.
Steven Creek
More spell checkers called for…
Well Dave…
I can only conclude you and the rest of your team are aberrated and you lack PURPOSE.
Learn how to sell books
From someone who has likely never sold a single book in his life…
This is the big event
The huge fundraiser for the Valley with the support of ALL LA Orgs, the CLO and ILO. And these are the “confirmeds.” Less than 50% will show. Which tells you where things are at in the largest concentration of scientologists on earth.
Amazing, Breaking News…
You need to show up so we can make money for the IAS! And if you just show up someone is going to give money.
Denver is Booming — see for yourself
Check out their turnout for the IAS event. This is staff and public. Maybe 5 people under 50 in the whole lot. And the whole lot is 30 people.
Save the date…
But we have no idea where the event is going to be….
Santa Barbara is booming. See for yourself.
They have even less than Denver. And even older.
Fundraising, fundraising, fundraising….
You just couldn’t resist showing up to something like this.
Good News! Money is no object for Santa Barbara.
Going to be interesting to watch them NOT fundraise.
Wow
They need more than a spell checker. How about someone that speaks english to better communicate their outrageous lies.
Filing, filing, filing
The CO CLO begging for people to do filing in a local org? Oh, how the mighty have fallen. This is the leader of the first ideal continent, overseeing a massive empire of more orgs and more scientologists than any other place on earth. And she has time for this?
Do My Ideal Org Honour
Huh?
V is for Vendetta
Seems appropriate somehow. Though victory is not at hand….
Construction has started…
What amazing news! Pity no start on Chicago, Philly, New Haven, Battle Creek, Kansas City, St Louis, Detroit, Salt Lake City, Orlando, Sunderland, Cape Town, Durban, Bulawayo. etc etc etc (those and many more HAVE buildings but are doing nothing with them….)
But not only that, Construction Documents are completed for Austin! One of the few orgs that did not need a new building (along with Toronto and NY – perhaps the only 3 in the world and 2 of them are still not done).
Soon they will be announcing the “big win” that the designer has Logged On to Start Planning!
unelectedfloofgoofer says
Now it’s all about fundraising meetings, and never about the tech.
Of course there will never again be any more new tech, or any more new research, or any research of any kind. There can’t be, by order of the guy who died in 1986. They have already seen it all.
bobxtm says
I think they’ve finally figured out how to make all the orgs go Saint Hill Size: all they have to do is make Saint Hill shrink to microscopic size!
angryskorpion says
I experienced OT phenomena. I was visited by a bunch of ghosts who told me to “stay away from the Church of Scientology and Count Miscavige’s Castle aka Fort Harrison Hotel”. Do you think they will use my story in Advance! MAG??
Ann B Watson says
The way The Advance Mag has advanced into the Abyss,I am positive your story will be on the cover!❤️
Ann B Watson says
I have got to email Amazon Prime,please stock up on Vampire Repellant.If I see that Sharon around a corner,I’ll whip it out,❤️
KiwiGal says
WOW OT News – just WOW. Inconsistencies like this really peeve me!
OK, I get that people from the UK don’t really have a clear collective nationality (English, Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish) but SURELY you lot have heard of Russian, Ukrainian, Israeli, Kazakhstani, Iranian and South African?
Also Latino is an ethnicity and not a nationality.
Foremost says
“Latino” is a reference to all people living south of the Mexican northern border to the tip of southern Chile. It includes Brazil, but excludes Spain.
“Hispanic” refers to all Spanish-speaking peoples anywhere in the world which includes Spain but excludes Brazil because they speak Portuguese there.
Neither strictly speaking have any common ethnicity — they are too different from each other. Chile has nothing whatsoever to do with Brazil, totally different people. 😉
Foremost says
Latino is about location, Hispanic about language. Neither define ethnicity.
Todd Cray says
What I don’t get about the goodreads bit: It claims that it was sent to folks because they rated BE (Creepy that that can make you a target for cult mailings!). And then it proceeds to give a synopsis of the book’s plot? To people who have already (presumably) read it and then rated it?
Was that done for the benefit of scilons who were ordered to rate it, regardless of whether they had read it or not?
Joe Pendleton says
So I can assume that MISTER Sharron Weber is making all those claims and observations about OT8 from her OWN personal knowingness and experience of having achieved it?
zemooo says
All this talk of vampire repellent and ‘how to up your money flows’ is so prosperity preaching. So why aren’t the clams more prosperous? Because the best regs anywhere are sucking that money out of their pockets. Why can’t the marks see that? How blind are the blind who will not see?
Jose Chung says
Inside Scientology It’s a CRIME to talk about money problems.
alcoboy says
Texas the first clear country?
WTF? !!!!!!!!
Is Scientology somehow in the know about Texit?
Old Surfer Dude says
They all failed Geography 101. They’ll make it up on GAG lll…
Joe Pendleton says
Don’t Texans think they ALREADY have a cleared country?
Newcomer says
Not quite yet Joe, they still have a couple of empty orgs to clear out in Dallas and Austin.
Dan Locke says
Jeremy in Portland tells us that the only thing of comparable importance to making his org SH size (and thereby delivering service at the correct order of magnitude) is supporting the IAS.
I’ve seen that become more and more the point of view over the years and it was always troubling. The IAS regges actually would make the IAS contribution seem more important than services. When I was regging, I’d occasionally think I might get a good reg cycle for ASHO or AO by asking an IAS reg. It never, ever happened.
And, I’d find an excuse from time to time to peak into their offices. I’d also occasionally swoop down on their public as they left the IAS office and coax them over to my desk.
The high majority of their donating public I interviewed had not been on service for years. They had been convinced that the church was in so much trouble or under such an attack and that the truly best thing they could do was fork over the cash, even if it meant forgoing their bridge progress.
So these donators are really good (though gullible) people; selfless to a fault!
In that studying Scientology is often difficult for people, and no one ever really goes very far up the bridge for very long without being sent back to go through it again, donating to the IAS actually was the path of least resistance for many in feeling that they were helping out.
The IAS, in the 80’s and 90’s at least, often made better income than the PAC service orgs. I often wondered what would have happened if these monies had been diverted to this public getting on with their training instead. My once-favorite-quote from that time period: “We could take this planet just as we are and with no more than we now know.”
Gus Cox says
Yeah, I guess when you donate for services, you actually have to go on course. I rather enjoyed it at the time I was doing it, but for a lot of people, studying is a bitch. These days, I study european history and advanced math. It’s much more interesting and useful than scientology.
LDW says
I wish you guys would all stop mocking.
Don’t you know that in all the broad universe there is no other hope for mankind than these guys?
All of them have traveled across the entire expanse of the universe and have independently confirmed this fact. You guys just don’t “get it.” It’s not a theory or ruse or hype or crazy belief or anything. It’s true I tell you! TRUE
alcoboy says
Cue the canned laughter.
Old Surfer Dude says
I opened up a can of laughter once. It blew me away…

Wow!

Interesting…..Looks like they are changing their PR photos, by not folding their arms so much.
Mary Smith says
Because they read this blog, so now they understand that folded arms are not welcoming!
T.J. says
Regarding fundraising, donations and the IAS:
HCO PL 24 Feb 1964: …”Don’t engage in “fundraising” or “selling postcards”… “it’s a sign of very poor management to seek extraordinary solutions for finance outside of Scientology”… “Org solvency lies in more Scientology, not patented combs or fundraising barbecues”. – L. Ron Hubbard
Mike Wynski says
Unfortunately T.j. no one was ever able to manage a class iv org so that it was viable (that HAS to include paying the staff salaries consummate with position, seniority & responsibility). The reason is because the “tek” never delivered what was promised. Crim level of exchange. Thus, FUNdraisers!
T.J. says
Oh, so the IAS fundraisers are for paying staff salaries and expenses? I hope they hurry up and start issuing paychecks, because according to IRS documents they have accumulated many millions of tax-exempt dollars, and staff still aren’t getting bigger paychecks. 🙁
Mike Wynski says
T.J. Straw man = YOU LOSE!
Ron Bots are never good with logic.
Terra Cognita says
I’m afraid you’re right Mike. I’ve never seen or heard of a Class 5 org that was truly solvent. Even the “big” ones never paid the staff more than a pittance (on a good week). Without moonlighting, staff would starve.
If the tech worked as advertised, there would indeed be lines outside of all orgs.
Mike Wynski says
Yep Terra, and that is why no matter WHO took over after Hubbard died it was only a matter of time before the scam wound down. The internet and the falsity of the tech made for the death of the scam. New people IN was already going off of a cliff by 1976-77.
Ideal Clear says
Well the red and green vols are gone so I would bet that that PL has been removed from any course it was on with the advent of GAT 1 and 2.
T.J. says
Thanks for reminding us of that. Where are the green & red volumes now? Anyone who has the originals, keep them, as they will soon be disappeared entirely. I think it’s criminal to alter or remove or discard anything that L. Ron Hubbard wrote. He said what he said, those are his words, it’s history. No one has the right to change what he said or only keep some portion of it. I’m not saying I believe in everything he wrote, because I don’t, although there are a few interesting or wise things among all he said in my opinion, and there is a lot I don’t agree with, but what I’m saying is that like it or not, believe what he said, or think it’s bunk, feel that his words were true, or false, still, no one should be able to get rid of what he said just to suit their own purposes.
Ideal Clear says
T.J
Years ago, I, as a volunteer in Qual had the task of putting together binders and putting BTBs, HCOBs and HCOPLs in date order.
One beginning wake up call was all the changes while sorting.
Granted, I was brainwashed or hypnotized but when the Qual Sec said throw away all the Red and Green Volumes I wondered what’s going on.
When I got to the trash dumpster I took them home rather them throwing them away.
They are now somewhere in the Freezone Europe.
T.J. says
So whatever is in circulation these days is not what he originally said? It’s all been altered? There is no real “source”?
I Yawnalot says
Vampire repellent… Now we’re talking! I want some of that. Does it come in large and economy sizes? Do you spray it on or is it a lotion, maybe a charm? It’s not a repackaged cross, garlic or silver is it? I’ve got a garage full of that stuff. Scientology would never repackage the same product would they? So many questions. If I wait do you reckon it’ll show up on eBay?
I wonder why the Cof$ doesn’t sell its stuff on eBay? You know, the make an offer, buy it now pitch… then again they are the masters of communication and like to do it up close and real personal, in your face like, with multiple people staring at you intending your money into their hands with no such thing as NO as an answer. Yep! Vampire repellent does sound good doesn’t it?
Terra Cognita says
Yawn: The really good repellent comes in suppository form and is sold at fundraising events.
Tara says
The hits just keep on comin’
Infinitely More Trouble says
Poor Jeremy in Portland. The best written piece in today’s Funnies was written by a Delphi graduate, so I feel a special connection to this kid. (I graduated from Delphi, too.) If you’ve read anything else by Jeremy—he was featured in a Bunker story some time ago—you’ll know he’s got quite a way with words. The tragedy is that these words are all in service for the IAS. Jeremy is PES or some uppity Div 6 position at Portland Org. Anybody who was active in Scientology pre-Miscavige might have some familiarity with L. Ron Hubbard’s opinion of staff pulled off post for non-post nonsense—particularly when said nonsense is of the fund raising variety. I’m no fan of Hubbard, but it never fails to amaze me how far David Miscaviage has derailed Hubbard’s, um, vision.
The worst part is the kids. Jeremy just graduated high school and is probably about 18. I’m surprised the Sea Org didn’t get him. (In the 80s and 90s, some folks snidely referred to Delphi as the Sea Org’s most expensive training academy.) Looks like Jeremy was smart enough to deflect a billion years of servitude by signing on to a mere five years at the Portland Org, which is similar to my decision to work at Delphi so long ago. I knew the Sea Org was complete bullshit, even if I wasn’t brave or dumb enough to admit it. I suspect, given how literate he appears, that Jeremy knows this, too, or at the very least suspects it, although he certainly wouldn’t be brave or dumb enough to admit it, either. Considering all of the $150,000-tuition graduates from Delphi that have immediately joined the Sea Org, I assure you that not all of them are as bright as Jeremy or me.
But here we have a really smart guy who has been indoctrinated into Miscavige’s sad little shadow of Scientology, where it’s fund raising all the time. Per Hubbard’s non-squirrely policy, the IAS has actually placed Jeremy in a condition of Danger, since he’s being both bypassed and he’s ignoring his normal duties. It was those brutal Lower Conditions which finally encouraged me to start questioning my faith. Particularly those situations where I thought I was doing what I was supposed to be doing—or at least was told to do it—only to end up in Liability, yet again.
Jeremy is already beginning that path. When his normal stats aren’t higher next week, because he spent literally all of his time on this stupid, off-purpose, IAS event, you may be assured he will be assigned a Lower Condition. After this happens often enough, some of us start to wonder if it’s really worth it.
Harpoona Frittata says
Cycling through the ethics conditions as a staff member is very much like yo-yo dieting: You work like hell to get to your desired goal, then watch as it all turns unmagically to shit and your achievements and sense of accomplishment vanish…rinse and repeat.
Informed friends don’t let friends get into $cn because once they’re in it can be hard as hell to snap them out of that group think hypnotic trance. Still, it’s worthwhile trying and a planted seed will germinate in its own good time.
So, if you’re in the area, perhaps looking young Jeremy up and taking him out to lunch (he could probably use a good meal) to talk about things that Delphi Alumni share in common might be worthwhile!
Infinitely More Trouble says
Well, I would love to give the commencement address at Delphi to inform the school of my opinion of the value of its education as well as to give all of its hapless graduates a heads up as to said value in the real world. Perhaps that’s why so many graduates stay in Scientology’s shrinking world, whether in the Sea Org or as a staff member somewhere: their education only prepared them for Scientology.
In any case, I graduated in 1986. Jeremy graduated in 2015. I’m no longer in touch with anyone at the school. But, I appreciate your nice thoughts and great recommendation. If I knew Jeremy (or anyone at the school nowadays), I would happily take them out to lunch for a sincere (and non-judgmental) talk about their future.

Battlefield Earth is back with “new content”? What is this, Golden Age of Sci-Fi Phase I ?
lesbates says
You mean they put the bad stuff back in?
Murray Luther says
So, I’ve finally come to this one question: What ever happened to the Issue Authority line? There was a time that it had control of all promo coming from all orgs and groups. It was bureaucratic and very strict, but it produced impeccable promo most of the time. I can only guess that nowadays IA is undermanned if it’s manned at all. More likely held from above or from the side. And then run by unqualified people. That would explain how all the weird and clumsy stuff falls through the cracks. How the mighty have fallen. They sure don’t make authoritarian cults they way they used to.
Jere Lull (35 yrs recovering) says
“Issue Authority, or any “management” functionality has been replaced my DM, the Degraded Midget. Thus, it’s likely to make as much sense as anything else that spews from that quarter.
Ronn S. says
Oh yes, tomorrow I’ve gotta go hear Emmitt speak and lunch for $30, let me pencil that in. Geeze with all those credentials he should surely be on the crest of the wave for New OT IX & X, unless he has to wait for GAT III… Then again I don’t see he is a recent Purif Completion. Honey, I think we’ll pass on this one on second thought, besides, we don’t have an extra $60 for both of us.

No, you get in for free UNLESS it is a Freewinds event and then you have to pay because the top of the Bridge is not making money. At all.

I would like more information about Sharron Weber. Who is she? How did she get to be CO FSSO? How long has she been in this position? Assuming her stats are as terrible as they seem, why hasn’t she been demoted?
Jose Chung says
I think she owned some salons and was recruited into the SO on the Freewinds.
Her Hubby soon was the ships captain.
It’s like a Mafia what can I say.
Space cootie on Sherman's shoulder says
Sharron established a chain of cosmetics stores in San Fransico.
She feels she was lucky to hit the perfect brand of perfume.Eau de Hubbard.
Now she promotes eau de Hubbard as a true cosmetic store owner.to solve everything.
She is a likable person but obviously not the brightest light on the Christmas tree.
Sharron would not surpringly go nuclear if anybody suggested she was wrong about anything.
Joe Pendleton says
I CS’d for Sharron as an auditor about FORTY years ago … she was uber cheerful and intense at the same time. Kinda nice actually and sexy too. Single mother I think. Haven’t seen her since.
Jere Lull (35 yrs recovering) says
Hey, Studius Judius! Didn’t you notice that all stats are now based on postulates? Postulate that 6,000,000 $cions exist, and that’s what is true, now. As long as they keep upping the postulated numbers, they’re in like Flynn.

It is always a pleasure to see that picture of LRH that appears in several of the posts today:

How do the Scios not see that? The emperor truly has no clothes, but everyone says they love the outfit.
Mike, Thanks for the morning laugh.
Good People says
I KNOW!!! LMAO!!!
Newcomer says
Geeze Mike, I love the Command Your Life and Prosperity Convention ad!
Poor Mr. Shar Ron Webber would collapse into lowers if he/she had a clue about the real Vampire Repellant.
Everyone who has left the cult obviously found their own ample supply without having to attend.
“Experience 20 hours of powerful seminars plus personal consultations…”
OMFG ………. I cannot fathom that anyone would pay money and spend time to attend such drivel.
Let’s see, Sharron starts by telling you that just because you are there you are in the elite of the elite of those that can salvage this sector. Then she goes to work on the things you are doing to prevent yourself from achieving your goals (mainly attending that event) and tells you that buying training and processing at the Fleecewinds handles that. But first you need to show your ability to make it go right (like you have done to get there in the first place) despite all the counter intention of the physical universe and your own Bee Tees and make a show of support for the I.A.S.
This can be achieved in the private consultation with Ted Braggin who will gush all over about your amazing and powerful beingness and how just being in the presence of such an example of Oh Tea Ness than he is humbled by asking for such a miserable lowly sum of money to help all of mankind make it out of this cesspool of life. And just for grins, make the check out for $1,000,000.01 in the spirit of play!
And as you finally get off the cargo cult of despair and make your way back to the airport you suddenly realize that you somehow must have forgotten your bottle of vampire repellant…… well, there is always next years convention!
Harvey says
Did I just read that?????
San Diego has IDEAL FILES. Hey! I want IDEAL FILES too. Not fair just because I’m an SP…..gee whiz!
I Yawnalot says
Maybe we should all go into competition and see who or what is the Ideal SP.
Maybe Mike can use his admin skills to get a scale of reference going and for a small (spelled large and ongoing) donation we can be nominated to attend a seminar on how to become a better, more Ideal SP. We don’t want no theetie wheetie, half ass’d dilettantes muddying up the field do we? Get onto your next Ideal SP level now and then maybe, just maybe, in our lifetimes we’ll see the release of the new Ideal 9 & 10 SP level in a city near you. The new CofS (Church of Suppression) specializes as the bridge to dis-enlightenment & personal mayhem. DO IT NOW!

Hennessy says
In all of my years in Scientology, I don’t think I have ever once had someone tell me that completing OTVIII gave them more gain than the entire Bridge combined. Mr. Sharron Weber is telling a tall one. What I would consistently see is some people finishing OTVIII, and then joining staff, doing other volunteer work, or fundraising for the church. There would be others who would never go back on course again, except for doing an Extension Course here and there. Some would even casually mention that they were “done for now.” OTVII is a long haul for most people and finishing 8 would come as a relief. It’s a mixed bag of results, but I never had one single person tell me that doing OTVIII gave them more case gain than the entire Bridge combined, ever. Yet I have heard and read similar wins about Survival Rundown from OTVIII’s!
Hennessy says
Oh, and “gone is worry about the body.” No way, a false promise that appeals to many.
Mike Wynski says
Hennessy, since “case gain” is 100% subjective, unmeasurable and indefinable through ANY objective process, it is ALL insane rambling anyhow.
I had more “subject gain” (undefined BS) staring at the sandwich than in my entire previous life.
I Yawnalot says
Just like the smell of burnt gun oil that always seems to appear when it’s too quiet. It’s all subjective, just like God, so why all the fus?

THIS (all of the above) is what El Con’s scamology has created. It IS the “E.P.” of a group of “trained OTs” put together by El Con the insane criminal.
That there exists insane people who, having escaped the CoS, are now trying to start a SECOND such abomination (under the guise of a religious non-profit AGAIN) beggars belief.

Yep, sure can’t trust those dang people! Imagine doing something like that & in broad daylight too?? Shame on life for being… well… so damned uncooperative.
I know! Let’s all follow Mike Wynski’s lead..
statpush says
I love it when they say things like: “We experienced more people moving up the Bridge in the past few months, than in the past three years combined!”
Do they even stop to think how ludicrous this sounds? Like physically impossible. This implies 12X traffic in the courserooms, in the HGC, in Qual, in HCO. They would have to erect temporary buildings to handle the additional workload. Hell, profitable, efficient wog businesses would be hard pressed to handle a 12X increase in production over such a short period of time.
To hear your newly installed management team spout such nonsense, is an admission that:
1) We’re new here, but we’re willing to lie to your face
2) Things are fucked here and we desperately need you to come in and give us money
3) Our management strategy is to enthusiastically lie to you and hope things turn around…somehow
Mike Wynski says

Wait until all the Idle Morgues become ideal. Then you’ll really see some wasting….world class wasting. The redwoods are in danger!
Harvey says
Here’s my 2 cents. For whatever it’s worth.
We were created with options. You can be happy or miserable depending on choices you’ve made. There are many among us who did not act in a way that led to happiness. I myself chose wrongly. Today it’s a different story…Thank God.
For $cientology and by $cientology what I mean here and now today I refer to David Miscavige to take advantage of people who are only looking to get out of their own personal hell….well he knows it and I know he is the devil incarnate.
Those who know his true intentions, who follow and obey “Command Intention” or more accurately put… TWH-, “The Way to Helll” and are complicit in his crimes….my friends you’re a sorry lot and only digging your grave deeper and deeper.
Yes, there are certain truths in $cientology, or we wouldn’t have jumped in in the first place. But it’s insidious that way, drawing you in and then ultimately ruining lives . As has been clearly demonstrated, Miscavige is a despicable person and his days are numbered.
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out because you’re going down and soon.
Old Surfer Dude says
We all have a choice when we wake up in the morning. We can choose to make it a great day…..or, choose not to.

Yep & yep again. Dead people always take preference over the living where religion is concerned, Hadn’t thought of that. I like your logic, it has a certain odor about it that matches the swamp out the back.

As to origin of a subject and relating to behavior because of said subject, only the terminally insane think that a living person takes preference over the dead originator.

DM is the mentally challenged brother of El Con. No where near the evil smarts. But he does have a knack for making money. HIS money. Hello IRS, FBI, CIA, QRS…..anybody out there?

I feel for every heart and soul, wife or relative of L. Ron Hubbard,
Those condemned to agony, for no reason other than having had the misfortune of crossing paths with the wrong megalomaniac.
DM follows the way of his leader, for a fate even more horrific, which patiently awaits beyond the boundaries of time.

Verbal tech party? More like hidden data line party. And that’s not the only area where hidden data lines are formed or used. Miscavige is the king of the hidden data line with all of his invented “LRH advices” that no one will ever see. The intelligence network of Scientology runs on hidden data lines … as in the trickle down effect to org DSAs, Snr HCOs and HCOs consist of “OSA must know something about this, that’s why we must shoot.” All the while the shooters have zero evidence in hand, just ze orders.
Now, I’ve noticed a trend on these Thursday Funnies. First, when I was active I mostly ignored these little propaganda pieces because I knew they were bullshit (being staff and in a position to know). But now that I’ve had some time to observe them, week after week, I’ve noticed they are chalked full of outpoints (from the outpoint list; eg dropped time, added inapplicable, omitted data, etc.). If bubble Scientologists could see promotions from 5 years ago and today they’d see the same lies being told over and over with little result but the same amount of outpoints. I know being able to make this cognition would be considered “an enemy line” but it’s very factual. I mean is every IAS event the best IAS event? What about the one happening a few states over? Isn’t that the best one? Can’t have two best ones, especially happening at the same time. Yeah it’s all bullshit folks. Bullshit. Every flyer Scientology puts out has one of two or two purposes: give money, give your time. Give, give, give. Or help us by giving us your wins so we can get others to give. Truly horrifying. Exchange? Bah, you owe us because we have the only tech that can save you. So give. And if you don’t give, go to ethics, until you’re reprogrammed enough that you want to give. Or get out of jail fr– by giving. What a scam.

From chapter six:
Today’s school lunch had a vague resemblance to something Italian. Evelyn looked at the congealed contents of Vicky’s tray before speaking.
“You know, I think those idiots could make a bad hot dish.”
Hot dish was a relatively quick and economical form of Minnesota cuisine using simple components such as ground beef, macaroni and cheese mix, along with a can of condensed tomato soup. There were some people who put an elaborate effort into making hot dish but that missed the point. It was supposed to be a cheap and easy meal to make.
