A person,group or thing upon whom the "BLAME" for the mistakes or crimes of other's is thrust,making them a Scapegoat.What do you think?Has the WT. Society been guilty of doing this to you? If so,how so?As for me ,the answer is yes.From the time I read the book,"Things in Which It is Impossible for God to Lie".I couldn't see the words,"However, If "WE" are caught in a Lie, it's all your fault,It's your mistake.When "WE" were proven to be mistaken,It's still all your fault.SSSHHH, keep quiet you Scapegoat! What do you think? Blueblades

Bingo. Just as for years the WTS was proclaiming the coming of '75, and when it came and went, the Society expertly deflected the failed expectation away from the shepherd onto the sheep for having gotten their expectations too high.

"Blaming the victim" is a garden-variety tactic of cultism and is to be expected from the JWs, the Mormons, the Moonies, and all other cults. Nothing unusual about it at all, nothing to be surprised about.

Hi! Francois.Your comment is true when one has knowledge of "Tactics of Cultism".I was speaking about when we don't have this knowledge and are caught "Unawares".(As has happened to countless numbers of persons, myself included.)Then the "Blaming the Victim"is unexpected, unusual and surprising.Otherwise,many of us would not have been caught unawares.Now however,after 32yrs.of deception,and along with many others having learned about the "Tactics of Cultism",that you have explained in brief,it is not unexpected,unusual or surprising to know this. I wish I would of met you 32yrs ago my family and I could of avoided all of this hurt.Thank you ,Blueblades.
