When you spend decades alienating and ostracizing people of genuine value… eventually, all you’re left with are the shitty ones.
And then you’re stuck with ‘em… effectively enabling them… ‘cause you can’t get anyone better.

What If The Tower Fell?
by Big Dog inwhat if the truly unthinkable happened and the tower went down?
perhaps the irs swooped in and claimed fraud and padlocked the headquarters and kingdom hall doors?
or the gb took the money and ran to a nice non-extradition country to live out their years?

The majority of JWs aren’t particularly violent (passivity is promoted - if indirectly - in WT rhetoric, after all), so I’m not too worried about angry loyalists seeking retribution…
…but I’d be surprised if some of ‘em didn’t at least try to blame “apostates” for the Tower crumbling (as logically - and from the WT’s POV, theologically - impossible as that is).

Considering most JW loyalists can’t seem to tie their fucking shoelaces without the WT’s “direction”, I can just imagine how dysfunctional some dutiful congregation would get after the first week or two of hunkering down in some poor semi-rural elder’s
bunkerhalf-finished walkout basement, waiting anxiously for the all-clear.😏

The "Problem" With Zoom
by XBEHERE inhere is the org's problem with zoom, attending this way does not fit with their "scriptural definition" of a christian gathering.
at least not anymore, one thing my pimi wife is fine with is attending on zoom occasionally, even 2-3 times a month or so.. if some of you recall, during covid there were break out rooms setup for people to stay on and associate.
many would also stay in the main meeting and talk over each other trying to say hello, etc.

What's the org like now?
by Leathercrop ineven tho i've been expelled about 4 years now, i truly checked out around 2015. changes in the org i think we're just starting to get going.
i remember the kingdom songs suddenly getting the taylor swift treatment aka pop music treatment.
meetings were getting axed or meshed together or something.

Beth Sarim - “Salvation at the last minute… I dont think that shit has hit the fan yet in the Borg rank and file…”
Nope, not yet.
The way it’s worded, I’m not even sure the R&F will put together the implications right away.
If they did, the smarter ones might justify it by comparing the situation to the apostle Thomas, who actually did need proof he could see and touch (and who, I might add, was not vilified for it).
Either way, it may take a while to fully sink in.

Where is everyone? 😆
by MissDaSilva ini had a day off today and needed to get some errands done in my local town.
2 carts have allocated here but i never ever see anyone out, even on very nice days.

Damn, they’ve weaponized it twice.
First, to hide pedophilia, and then this to suss out dissenters.

Using Zoom to tune out or even fade…
…quietly going to post-secondary school despite the rhetoric…
…guys not pursuing congregation privileges…
…never underestimate the power of passive resistance.

ElderBerry - “… I do want to be there for good friends who are JWs so that over the next few years as the tower falls we can be there for them to soften the blow as they go through all the stages of grief as the organisation crumbles.”
A commendable attitude.
Are you confident there’ll actually be enough of those to bother?

DesirousOfChange - “…How do you sell off 3 BILLION$ on tax free real estate sales and be broke in just a few years?”
Warwick went crazy over budget, there’ve been hundreds more CSA payouts that will never reach the general media, and apparently, there were some old outstanding loans attached to the Brooklyn properties that the Org was required by law to square away as part of the terms of the sale.
So, evidently, it’s all gone, baby, gone.
