You can almost smell the desperation in this new promotional piece.
The “ideal” org in Auckland is clearly in need of staff. They have a handful and are making no progress towards achieving St Hill Size (and thus the “Make-Break point” where they actually become viable). Their newest pitch is pretty pathetic.
This is the video they are wanting everyone to watch… It’s very short. And very, very amateurish. Certainly not a SuMP production.
Their sales gimmick is that you don’t really have to give up anything to be a staff member. You can do all these others things and make a minimal commitment to staff.
Hahaha. That is absolutely untrue, as anyone who has ever been on staff knows. And as the public (who are their potential recruitment pool) all know. And it is a big reason (along with no pay) that many avoid joining staff despite repeated efforts to get them to do so.
Frankly, this video is kind of sad.
These poor people are trying to eke out a meager existence and pretend their lives are fulfilled and normal. This video is pretty compelling evidence they know how terrible their lives are and what they are missing.

You can be it all: a dupe, a slave, a mark, a boot licker, an
indoctrinated practitioner of quackology, a soul-dead homo wankus…

Ridiculous video, if you can even call it that. Obviously shot with a smart phone and edited using phone apps. No camera, no audio-video editing software. Heck, that wasn’t a video, it was an org selfie.

The tragic thing is that some people will move – often a great distance – as a result of the lies told to them about how wonderful life will be for them when they join staff.
The truth is they will find themselves in a strange city with no financial support whatsoever. They will have nowhere to live and no money to buy anything. They will get some terrible slop the cult will tell them is food. But they will usually have to resort to begging on the street to be able to afford necessities.
I remember the sentiments expressed by Steve Hassan who opined that our legal system today is completely outdated and unable to handle these kinds of crimes.
Fat stupid judges force Valerie Haney to submit herself to the cult’s arbitration which is much like being raped by the cult.
It is just maddening that these judges will live out their lives in comfort and even more maddening they will live out their lives with the respect of all their friends and neighbours. One day the truth will out and these judges will be corrected somehow. I just hope the victims of their ignorance about cults will make it to the day where they can see this for themselves.
Jere Lull says
Of COURSE you can have it all… IF you’re independently wealthy and can live apart from the rest of the staff; withOUT any sort of telephone connection, TV, or Internet, AND you’re okay with only having scn “friends” who will be hitting you up for everything they need for comfort or to survive. Of course t goes without saying that you have to be able to say NO to the registrars and ‘ethics’ officers’ attempts to shake you down.
On second thought, the ONLY way to “have it all” is stay FAR away from scientology. Otherwise, what is yours will be made “theirs”.
Jere Lull says
It’s a shame that scientology can deliver on NONE of its claims. If it could, they wouldn’t be in the dire shape they’ve always been in for the 70 years since D:MSMH was published and the Dianetics FAD took off. If ‘clear’ even had a nodding acquaintance to the reality, I’d still be ‘in there’ — and quite likely dead as I would NOT have gotten the excellent care I received for a stroke a dozen years ago. At best, I could have received the “care” Ron got for his strokes, and then died just as surely.

You are absolutely correct Mike. That lie will last about as long as Thursday, 2 PM.
Then KSW will be front and center, and the niceties are over.
