lost, your rhetoric and bashing is getting tiresome. The reason why some of us trust AAWA leaders' motives is because some of us know some of them personally and know they're good people who have ALREADY helped many before ever forming this organization. Just because you're a noob who has never met any of these people doesn't make them nobodies in the ex-JW community.
Did they screw up? Yes. Did they take a long time to try to fix it? Yes. That can be problematic for people who don't know what they're talking about but here's some good advice: when you don't know what you're talking about, STFU.
I told my friends in AAWA that it is wrong to paint JWN with a broad brush as opposers to their efforts and I will tell you something similar: it is wrong to paint all of AAWA with a broad brush as "a right bunch of conmen."
If you don't want their help as an ex-JW because you don't trust them, that's fine. If you don't want to help them as a volunteer because you don't trust them, that's fine, too. But when you continually resort to name-calling and pontificating you have crossed a line. Take a note from how Simon has behaved through this. He's been critical but respectful and practical. You just keep ranting. Help or don't help but do no harm.
