Unbelievable Amount of PIMOS at Massachusetts JW Convention

this comment was made on reddit, perhaps protesting is starting to get the witnesses' attention.. it amazed me how many jehovah's witnesses exiting the convention were reading the protester's signs.

some of the witnesses were taking pictures of the signs.

jws were going by and smiling and giving a thumbs up.

It’s the over-the-top scream-yourself-hoarse ranting that turns me off.

I used to love reading Infowars…

…when I was reading it…

…imagining the information being presented in a calm, concerned Ted-Koppel-like tone (also, because I was still in at the time, but looking for reasons that the Org could still somehow be right, and a lot of early 00’s conspiracy theory could easily be retconned into WT eschatology).

Then I finally got around to watching one of Jones’s videos, and realized, “holy shit, this guy’s a fucking loon”.

Back in the day, Rick Fearon and Six Screens were the Alex Jones and PrisonPlanet of the XJW community, and I absolutely believe that his antics scared doubting but fearful JWs back to the WTS…

…he was such a perfect “apostate” poster-boy that when I was in a conspiracy-theory mood, I’d often wonder if the Org actually created him and his website as some sort of misguided false-flag tactic, and it got away from ‘em. 😁

I will admit, though… he does seem to have calmed down a bit as he’s gotten older (most of us do, after all), but IMO, he should direct his criticism more specifically at the Watchtower, and less at JWs in general.

Calling ‘em “zombies”, for example, doesn’t help… your average JWs-on-the-street are fairly decent folks.

Well…

…for now, anyway…

…who the fuck knows how full-on loyalist lifers are gonna start acting if things keep going the way they are. 😵‍💫

elder friend of mine texted me asking what my rc attendance was 2 weeks ago (family and i streamed it since wife is not well).

he told me that his rc in the jersey city assembly hall last weekend was low.

co told them that around 2600 were the total from 16+ congs that were assigned.

Lots of empty seats at Jehovah's Witnesses Convention in Tucson, Arizona

the jehovah's witness 2023 convention theme is, ''exercise patience''...by looking at the attendance at this tucson, arizona convention, it should be changed to, '' jehovah's witnesses...running out of patience''.

How will the Borg respond?

By taking increasingly unethical actions to maintain control and survive, which can’t help but alienate decent members even further, who, in turn fade, in a self-perpetuating cycle.

It’s called the “nightmare” stage of “Wishful Thinking”.

Deadpool 3

so, it’s gonna be a marvel studios production.. i’m holding out for the following titles:.

”deadpool: agent of shield”.

”deadpool v spider-man: dawn of bromance”.

Honestly, at this point (with all the other leaks/rumours swirling around this thing), it wouldn’t surprise me if the movie’s tagline ended up being:

“And you thought No Way Home was $&@%ing insane…”

Good luck keeping a lid on that.

Never underestimate the power of passive resistance.
