From what I've read, ("classical") conservative ideology tends to favor slower cultural and sociological change.
That trend would probably translate itself towards technological innovation, at least to some degree.

8Why Don't Conservatives Take the Lead in Technology?
by RubaDub inwhy is there constant criticism about "liberals" driving new technology?
web sites, social platforms, etc.
if the us is relatively evenly divided, why do all "new" things seem to come from the liberal side?

Another shocking JW Abuse case, with Legal Commentary
by Phizzy in"16 april 2020 | comment | article by alan collins.
jehovah’s witness elder sentenced to nine years in prison for sexual abuse.
jehovah’s witness elder, clifford whiteley, has been sentenced to nine years in prison at the birmingham crown court for sexual abuse offences he committed against a child member of the congregation over ten years ago.. mr whiteley initially denied the offences to the police, despite the fact that he had admitted his guilt during an internal investigation of the jehovah’s witnesses.. during court proceedings, mr whiteley’s defence counsel, sharon bailey, stated that the jehovah’s witnesses refused to disclose the details of his confession to the police.

Biahi - "...Soon, no one will want to be an elder..."
Which, in turn, forces the Org higher-ups to scrape the bottom of the barrel even deeper just to find qualified guys willing to "reach out"...
...in effect, lowering the ethical standards required for congregation leaders...
...which, in turn, can't help but further reduce the overall quality of congregation leadership...
...thus alienating even more decent, sincere rank-and-filers...
...which, in turn, even further reduces the pool of available and qualified guys willing to "reach out".
A vicious cycle.
Ten bucks says the GB is viewing the Covid-19 shutdown as a fucking God-sent reprieve, for all kinds of reasons.

700 million laundered funds by Watchtower to avoid sex lawsuit payment?
by Terry inbased on a daily telegraph article : jehovah's witnesses accused of selling off assets and moving cash to avoid sex abuse compensation
watchtower has 800 charities in australia and australian law says they don't have to report assets below 1 million .
doesn't this imply watchtower can have in excess of 700 million laundered funds?

Overlapping Generation
by pandorasbox1914 inthe september 2015 broadcast had david splane explain matthew 24:34 “truly, i say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place”.
his explanation of this scripture was by means of a chart to indicate an overlapping generation.. .
no scripture was used to show the overlapping generation concept, and as a result it makes no sense.. to illustrate how crazy this concept is, look at the lyrics of the song my generation.. my generation.

slimboyfat - "...Maybe the idea is not even meant to be understood, it’s a paradoxical kōan-type test of JW ability for mental gymnastics while attempting to remain sane."
That's it, it's a litmus test!
It's like how doofy Stephen Lett looks when he's on JWTV...
...only the most hard-core brainwashed loyalists could drink that guy's Kool-Aid and honestly want more.

truth_b_known - "...the proceeds have been funneled elsewhere?"
Sort of.
A couple years back, WTHQ had the bulk of their money in Australia transferred overseas.
There is no fucking way it was a coincidence.
