I don’t think they care what opponents say. They do care if it results in lower donations and lower income. I think that’s what prompted the outburst.~ SlimFatBoy
EXACTLY!
WTS usually refuses to make a comment. They have long held that to do so just gives legitimacy to the "false stories".
The child sexual abuse lawsuits become so prevalent and publicly known that they were forced to finally respond with a "form letter" stating they "abhor" child sexual abuse.
This public attempt at damage control is indicative of their concern and the affect it must be having in donations ("hitting them where it hurts").
I think there are likely MANY active JW's that have closed their wallets since they all feel there are no local expenses that need to be covered at this time since the "lights at the Hall are off". Plus of lower wage earners are who are suffering the most financially with the Covid crisis.

I heard an old kook suggest it was "designed" to kill off those that are a drain on society -- the old, infirm, and sick.
Those will serious illnesses that are expensive to treat (many of them indefinitely needing expensive meds).
Those elderly who would have passed at 70 years of age in the past (as Soc Sec was designed) who are now draining the SS system by living into their 80's and 90's.
These people are "not productive" in society but rather cost society a lot financially in healthcare and entitlements.
Or is it that "kooky"?

Sorry, I can't watch it.
But it tells you they are worried about the modern day Exodus -- of "apostates" leaving the fold (with their wallets).

Was 2019 the last convention ever?
by joey jojo inin a recent feel-good instagram post about the 2019 international convention, a jw remarked, "was it the last convention we will have?".
there is no doubt jw's feel they are truly special and that world events revolve around them directly.
there is also no doubt that whether we get a vaccine for covid or not, and at the moment, its looking very certain that we will, that the world will continue to spin and life will go on, regardless of the beliefs of the jw's.. once the pandemic is over i'm wondering if some jw's will realise that even though they lived through a notable period of time, life kept sailing on, and maybe they aren't that special after all?

IF this was indeed "the last convention ever" then . . . .
. . . . .it would most certainly truly be THE BEST CONVENTION EVER!
But I suspect there will be more to come!

They told me that to go to the grocery store all I needed was gloves and a mask.
They lied.
Everyone else was wearing clothes.

I have family members who have their Medical Marijuana Cards and use products that they purchase in the State regulated dispensaries. They are not serving in any "appointed" positions. They really are PIMO Jdubs. It's my understanding that it is treated by the Borg as using any other "prescribed" medication.

Better pardon Flynn as well.
If Sydney is f*cking up the election litigation, I wouldn't want to rely on her for Flynn's case being dismissed.
