I wouldn’t say that.
When I first started fading , I’d already come to realize that evolution had to, in fact, be true (for a number of reasons, actually)…
…and I inevitably found myself asking, “Gosh, if the WT is wrong about something like that, WTF else are they wrong about???”
And here I am, now.
So look at it this way…
…more and more of our arguments, allegations, and assertions are being proven right, often simply by the actions the Org has taken.
That won’t be lost on any of the rank-and-file who still have half a brain…
…which can’t help but foster unspoken questions like, “Gosh, if ‘apostates’ were right about this, that, and the other thing, WTF else are they right about???”

Who really is the Faithful and Discreet Slave? The recent changes and the Governing Body's 10 year plan
by redsetter2 ini am sure we were all shocked at the governing body update #2 with the unusual and impulsive changes set forth.. i am an insider at whq, and when i was on reddit and in communication with avoidjw i explained to the best of my ability that the approach on disfellowshipping was going to change based on the new light at the 2023 agm, that the jubilee rumor was false, and there were going to be changes on how jws approached disfellowshipping in response to the norway situation if it didn't turn out in watchtower's favor.
the decision came because of a legal blow to watchtower, not because "holy spirit" wad directing a faithful slave, who is going to become the "evil slave", more explanation on this soon.. everything i stated came true.
i left reddit exjw community due to the immature and mentally unstable nature there, and yet as has been the case my words came true.

Ding - “…So, until 2012 the faithful and discreet slave was wrong about who the faithful and discreet slave is…”

My wife and I actually like how I look in a shirt and tie… it was never an issue with us.

JeffT - “I think a good analog for the collapse of the Watchtower is the fall of the World Wide Church of God…”
Oh, hell, yes.
And I guarantee you the Org was watching and taking notes, and it absolutely informed their decision-making process.
It would’ve been weird if that hadn’t been the case.

New rules for dress & greeting disfellowshipped: It's even worse!
by neat blue dog ini know they're panicking and trying to gain favor with governments, former members, prospective converts & those who are teetering, all for financial worries.
still, the latest update in some ways made things worse, and if there's any jws watching it who are beginning to wake up it should be very disturbing.. starting with dress codes: they say that suits, ties & skirts are no longer required, but in so doing they admit that they were required, something not often appearing as an explicit command in print.
(similar to how lett referred to the "policy on beards" in his video, even though this direct policy wasn't made available to rank and file.

Phizzy - “Anybody hounded now can tell the hounder to ‘go forth and multiply’ without a qualm.”
NewJWspeak: “Go forth and multiply”
Translation: “Go fuck yourself”

I always hated the self-righteous assholes who tried to play the “stumbling” card every time their nose got out of joint over some poor kid sneaking a beer out behind the tool shed.
My otherwise devout JW parents nevertheless had a very much “mind your own goddamn business” attitude about that sort of thing, so I came by it honestly.

Las Malvinas son Argentinas - “…In practice it was already on the way out. I know people who often had contact with DFed ones and elders rarely did anything other than provide counsel if that. It was a selectively enforced rule, seemingly reserved for heinous offenders.”
I’m actually inclined to agree.
Back in the Jaraczic Period, the prospect of being DFed was scary AF, for almost everyone… folks in JCs practically begged not to be.
These days, though?
Not so much.
The threat just doesn’t seem to carry the weight it used to.

jehovaxx - “…In the unusual case where worst case scenario someone is DFed it’s only for 90days and if they go to meetings everyone will still greet them anyway…”
Cribbing a page from the Amish playbook, now, it would seem.

Remember, cracking down on sexuality was always far more about appearing morally purer than everyone else, to reinforce the Jehovah’s Witness religion’s alleged superiority and exclusivity, as opposed to simply wanting folks to be genuinely better people (not to mention that WT theology also simply reflected conventionally conservative American culture, just dialed up to eleven).
It’s pretty obvious by now, however, that…
a) …sexual repression fosters sexual deviancy (duh), which has become a real problem amongst both the leadership and rank-and-file, and cannot be kept on the down-low anymore…
…and…
b) …just going by the sheer volume of “local needs” talks about “fornication”, JWs fuck like bunnies anyway, and everyone knows it by now, which puts the lie to the allegation that they’re more sexually moral than “The World”.
Cracking down even harder on poontang (in any form) is just too obviously and embarrassingly hypocritical, so a concession like what’s described would really just be reality dictating policy a bit more realistically.
Not to mention that having these changes to the rules would probably only be specifically detailed in confidential correspondence to BOEs… they’d be advised to put it into practice, but not necessarily spell it out explicitly to the rank-and-file, per se…
…“need-to-know”, as it were.
