do jehovah’s witnesses shun former members of their religion?

JWs who drift away and then start saying or doing things that contradict the teachings of the cult are likely to be shunned even if the elders have not taken action.
That is different from JWs who have simply become inactive and stopped attending meetings.

The second screenshot is referring to JWs who have 'drifted away' - inactive publishers - not to disfellowshipped persons.
I hate sounding like I am defending the cult but you keep posting terrible arguments. Always quote your opponent in context otherwise you just weaken your own case.

No I don't see it. Even zoomed in the writing is illegible.
Could you please explain?
watchtower/jw .org and their 'apostate driven lies'⁉️.

.
I don't get it.
How is the admission that some JWs have abused children incompatible with the claim that they are not 'permissive of pedophiles'?
Weak arguments harm the case against the cult.
Be in no doubt that I believe that the Watchtower has created a haven for pedophiles but I don't get your argument.
heroes come in all shapes and sizes.
from their depictions in ancient myth (that are brought to life on the silver screen in modern retellings) to the less-sensational, yet stirring biopics of sometimes seemingly mythical, but actual flesh and blood persons who have helped shape our world, there is certainly no shortage of heroic women and men.
chances are, however, that it is the unsung hero that has likely had the most impact on our lives.
Again you seem to be almost entirely focussed on the legal rights of people who suffer from gender dysphoria.
That is a different topic from the rights of homosexuals - despite the best efforts of pressure groups to conflate the two.

I live in the UK so I can't comment on the situation in the USA. In western Europe equal rights for gay people is guaranteed under law.
Gay people are very well represented in the media and in storylines of mainstream drama.
What freedom do gay people not yet have in the USA or any other liberal democracy?
it really is common sense, but nobody here seems to recognize or acknowledge this blatant and obvious truth.. the holy bible is the result of the catholic liturgy.
they used these scriptures in their religious practices and confirmed which books would and would not be part of their cannon.
they picked, preserved and promoted these books and gave 'the word of god' to the world.. i know that pisses off some folks, but it is the truth [not the 'truth'tm].
Cofty? You're bald ...like me..lol
Yeah, but my head is the right way up :)

That list mostly seems to be about issues surrounding the law as it affects people with gender dysphoria and about allowing others the right to exercise their religious freedom.
There is a supply and demand problem with advocacy groups. They can never honestly admit the massive progress that has been made already and must constantly exaggerate the issues.

Surely the fight for acceptance and equal rights is over in liberal western democracies.

only one church was commissioned by Jesus
He must be deeply embarrassed.
