Cofty, a racist that takes up a noble cause, is still a racist. I’d argue that his activism is merely a dog whistle to his natural followers, many of which are racist. Yes, the grooming scandals are abhorrent, and many institutions and agencies have very serious issues to resolve, and questions to answer, but when someone like “Tommy Robinson” takes up this cause, I wonder if the welfare of the girls being exploited is foremost in his motivation, or it plays to a larger, anti-Muslim (racist) agenda.

The EDL was a racist organisation. “Tommy Robinson” was its founder and leader until 2013. It’s possible to hold different views on this, but mine is that I don’t support racists.

Why is this even on here? Surely there is a forum on InfoWars or Fox that you can lobby for this racist. It’s pretty offensive ....

Cofty, I’m here in the UK and well aware of “Tommy Robinson” - which isn’t his real name of course. As the founder and leader of the EDL, he is a far right activist, racist, and fascist. Well reported on and true. We are all entitled to our own opinions, but not facts. I’m unsure why anyone on this forum wants to go out to bat for this lowlife...

He is a violent self proclaimed racist and white supremacist. Prison seems about right....

Pioneers, Prayers and Pills
by Wake Me Up Before You Jo-Ho inlooking back on my two decades as a jehovah’s witness, i’ve come to realize how the constant theme of endurance is playing a detrimental role on the individual's psyche.. jehovah’s witnesses have become far too good at keeping going.
they’re experts at surrendering to the demands of the watchtower, living up to what’s expected of them, and getting on with the priorities that those in power have defined and imposed upon them.
they keep showing up, presenting themselves a dutiful pioneer or ministerial servant.

I got back from the memorial . . .
by neat blue dog init was pretty mundane for the most part, same songs, same outline.
the only new thing they added was the video at the end, where stephen lett speaks to the visitors and commends them for coming and recommends they go to jwdotorg and also start a bible study.
they also showed a bar graph with figures increasing every year for jws, memorial attendance and memorial partakers.

Memorial.. To go or not to go
by Emily1987 inso, as some of you will know myself and my husband are in the process of fading.
haven't been to a meeting since beginning of 2017. .
we weren't planning on going to the memorial, but last week my mother broke down and said that we have to go to the memorial even if it's the only meeting i go to this year.

Emily - as someone who is still an elder, Ill just add this. For some Elders, not necessarily the majority, but certainly the more hardcore element (if you have some in your former congo), then periodically turning up, even just for the memorial, will mean you are still "associated" with the organization. This could mean that finding out you are celebrating worldly holidays etc could lead to an outcome you may not want, and ironically make it harder for your mother to see you in the long run......

Social Media
by Emily1987 inas some of you may remember from a previous post of mine, myself and my husband are in the process of fading.
we began our fade in jan 2017 and haven't been to a meeting since may 2017. to say this time has been a struggle is an understatement.
it has been a lonely time for us, losing all of our so called friends.

Hi,
Yes there was, on the morning program of the “doing what is fine” assembly and it specifically counselled about not being friends online with dodgy ex-witnesses..... if your old Congo had that assembly recently, that would explain what’s going on with you..
