interesting idea by;.

to many of you, this idea might seem absurd, but is it?.

Pete No books to place in ministry , the rush to get all on line and use tablets and smartphones etc for ministry and meetings ,and the cherry on the cake the grand media centres to produce movies to broadcast on line .in fact bro Morris said at the AGM that route calls are a waste of time .
It makes me wonder if they've seen the success of Netflix etc and they're intending to turn themselves into a religious streaming service. Then it will be "we produced millions of simplified tracts in millions of languages....but now we can reach even more people .,..maybe who can't read at all" !!
Not at all realising that other religious groups have already made films that reached a billion people "The Life of Jesus"....and that for free! Something Watchtower will certainly not do🤔

You cause trouble for Simon if you steal copyrighted images. Not a good idea. The thought is spot on.
Not in this case. Commentary and satire constitutes fair use.

I didn't watch but someone mentioned he was talking about how his most important "work" is continuing the fight on sexual abuse in the Watchtower.
I think that's an intentionally provocative statement, if made. It's obviously sticking two fingers up at the people who have voiced their concerns over someone with his attitude advocating for survivors, including survivors themselves.
I think people may have seen that as an insensitive insult and that's why they withdrew their support.

I refused to watch it.
But I was disappointed to see Myth Vision podcast's Derek greasing up to him in the comments section.
It's only and always about the money for both of them. Always has been always will be...he has no choice but to soldier on.
As to reaching out to other Hack-tivists - it will only ever be if they're useful to him. All his 'friends' are people he needs for something....that's why they both had to "confess" their issues to some poor sod who barely knows them - that alone rang massive alarm bells for me.

She's obviously staying with him for the money.
The way they've both behaved toward Kim Silvio is appalling. Kim and Mike if I were you I'd stay well away from it - I think you've been trolled.
Anyone who donates to that narcissist is a fool.

It says the iPhone messages were sent on the 18th January, so that’s before the Marko leak.
No because he leaked those original screenshots years ago, didn't he? And his wife is the one she sent these texts to? She must have known he might leak them....
SBF Are the podcasts' still available?
Yes they are. They were originally called EXJW podcast and Louise had to change it to EXJW Community podcast. I'll find a link The offending one was called "Speak out". You can find it on other platforms
