The inevitable slow decline i can certainly get behind. Thats hell and gone different from “they have already collapsed” (slim has said that on more than one occasion).
Slim, again your lying to yourself and your audience. The main source of income wasnt books. Its jw’s. Jw’s bought books to keep up with jw theology. Hw’s still are the source of wt income. They are simplt finding new ways to fleece their flock. The books were just a tangible trading item to make jw’s feel better about the fleecing.
