Hello,
I think that GB doesn't need to have something to do with pedophiles, but rather it's a manner to gather jw.
Look at the video of november Gary braux doesn't speak about pedophiles or trials or Royal Commission.
He speaks only about "apostate", in fact he has same approach than Lett , Morris, Splane or Jackson
"There are no pedophiles witin JW organisation"
The aim of this , I think, is to have a hard core of jw , those who are like me or other "normal" person are lost for WT and GB. And the GB know it !!!
Another facts is since .all publications are free.. we could honestly take Swagart trials date , it is obvious the economics model of WT must fall ! Today with all problem they ( GB ) could manage less growth in richest land and big growth in poor land ... but money comes from richest .
At the end they have a chronic shortfall , the only manner to stop that is ( like scientology ) have less member but members that are able to lie , or able to give "fake news"
best regards
PS: don't hesitate to correct my english ... i know i have a poor english :)
