Scientology is nothing but a huge con. Everyone running it is a crook. Full stop. Their purported “beliefs” are so far out there, I can’t believe anyone with one single brain cell follows. I’ve read a couple of books written by “escapees” from this cult and I was horrified.

May 4, 1970. A truly heartbreaking day in American history.

On this day in 1970, four students were killed and nine others wounded when National Guard troops opened fire on student protesters at Kent State University in Ohio. Allison Krause, Jeffrey Miller, Sandra Scheuer, and William Schroeder were just kids on a college campus. They were someone's children. Someone's friends. Never forget. youtube.com/watch…

Down with cults of all kinds. Great kids, they'll keep the future straightened out.

bless their hearts! When I was a kid in the 1940s, our family was infiltrated by christian scientists. My dad was dying of a then untreatable cancer over a more than 3 year period. My parents got desperate, medical stuff could do nothing. That's the point when cults get people. The xtian scientist "manager" of his case told my fragile mother after he (mercifully died) that if they'd only had more faith he would have been cured. Cults are vile. Cheers to the kids. Lovely seeing them dodge the peeps in black.

Long ago, in a galaxy far, far away (May the force be with you BTW) when I was at UCLA, I had an attempted recruitment with Scientology. I took the “personality test” and apparently I failed because they thanked me and showed me the door. That was the early 70’s.

I love this speedrun compilation. My daughter told me about this trend a few weeks ago, but I didn’t know how funny it was.

Scientology assholes wasted several hours of my time back when I was 17. I was waiting for my boyfriend to be off work, and the building just advertised that they’d pay you to do IQ testing (nothing about any church) so I said why not. It was only like 5$ or something, but I’m thinking I can get some swill with that.

This test took probably two hours, but it was boring, so I may be exaggerating the time it took. If I’d really been smart, I would have just pissed my way through it with great speed.. but I actually tried.

Anyways, they take my completed test, keep me waiting another 20 minutes, then tell me I’m basically a fucking genius. That was when I knew it was complete bullshit. I was already scooting my chair back to leave by the time they pulled out some Scientology seminar ticket to give me. Also the bastards paid me with a check, which annoyed me because my dumb ass was expecting actual cash or at least cashiers check 😂

Many years ago I was riding a bus in Seattle and the driver made a joke saying We’re coming to the Church of Science Fiction. Then he almost had an accident. I thought of the tv show Maude who used to say God will get you for that, Walter!

I read about this in the news and see what you mean about “sane washing”. I lived quite near their “compound” in the California desert and have been aware of and appalled by them ever since L. Ron Hubbard decided he could make more money starting a religion than he could by being a science fiction writer (and a stunningly bad one at that!). I applaud those young men, even though I don’t usually like those kinda of shenanigans.

Like all cons, the money goes to their top leadership. Like all cults, the adherents just go along while their pockets are picked and their self-awareness is ground to dust. Vulnerable and struggling peoples need to know the truth about Scientology and its leader, David Miscavige. If locking their doors and removing the handles saves some people, more power to the "speed runners."
