Cancel me, baby! Cancel me!!!
Aaaah, that's some sweet cancellation...
we seemed to have reached peak cancel-culture.
now, we get to try to cancel the citizens of an entire country for something their government chose to do.. really, we can't allow russian individuals to compete in sports?
to live a life?.

pat roberston,92, comes out of his million dollar mansion ( which his loyal followers paid for ) to continue his doomsday prediction.
pat needs to make one last appearance to show his followers he was right all along.
after all his failed predictions on his ''700 club,'' pat needs to show his followers that this ''doomsday prediction'' is a bible prophecy.
Jeezus, he looks like Darth Sidious.
HTF is this guy even still alive???
interesting idea by;.
fabian strategy warrior.
to many of you, this idea might seem absurd, but is it?.
pistolpete - "Are they letting the Organization go?"
A lot of folks let themselves go.
'Specially if they've never had to work a day in their life and thusly figure they got a free ride.
my ex-husband is in prison for ..well a while longer and has recently became very interested in the study of jehovah.
(forgive me if i say anything incorrect- i am not religious in any way but do respect all choices!
) he is looking for some penpals to help make the time go by faster and to really learn more about the religion so he can make a difference in his community once he gets out.
Even back when I was still in, the prospect of preaching to convicts felt weird.
sometime in late 2014 or early 2015, a video of tony morris giving a talk about giving one's all was released by the borg.
he was belittling those who had one excuse or another for doing less than (he thought) they should.
he mocked those who relied on the thought that "jehovah knows my circumstances and he doesn't think any less of me" or some such.
under the radar - "...He then sneered..."
What, like this guy?
the watchtower—study edition | may 2022. study article 19. revelation—what it means for you today.
15 satan instigated an attack on the anointed brothers who were taking the lead in the kingdom-preaching work.
prominent ones among them were the figurative “two witnesses” spoken of as being killed.
FFGhost - "Looks like they still identify the "8th king" as the United Nations, but... It barely gets a mention. 3 articles, 60+ paragraphs all about Revelation, and the UN is mention exactly once, almost in passing... Used to be that the UN was front and center in WTS end-times rambling about the book of Revelation... Maybe they are working on phasing out that particular interpretation?"
The idea that the UN is as dangerous as the WT's eschatology suggests takes some next-level suspension of disbelief (realizing this was one of my little wake-up moments, in fact), but I think they're stuck with it...
...there's no one left with the creative and narrative chops to give the Org's old Cold-War-centric End-Times script an overhaul.
At this point, all they can do is soft-pitch the weirder parts and hope it'll all still (somehow) come true.

Biahi - "...when I read this it made me think the GB is preparing the rank and file for when they go to prison..."
Hard to argue with.
this question has been presented many times throughout the years.
somewhat recently, there has been much talk surrounding the "bite method" :.
"bite” stands for behavior, information, thought, and emotional control.. some examples were thrown at me, such as the decisions of who we associate with, discouraging any worldy media, encouraging our brothers and sisters to report any of our misbehaviours to the elders, our rejection of criticism on the truth, shunning etc.. what do we think about this?.
"Authoritarian High Control Group".
A bit wordy, but break it down to its individual components, and I think even the most hardcore loyalist would have difficulty refuting the label.
i hope other countries follow suit.. https://youtu.be/pfw9xzugcms.
Yet another indication that the end of the Org's tax-exemption is in sight, IMO.

in 2018, watch tower filed for a dmca subpoena that would've required youtube to hand over the identity of an animator who parodied the religious group in his videos.
As far as I'm concerned, this is proof the Org reps have long since bought into their own rhetoric.
