Upcoming Neutrality Talk Oct 26, 2020
by Listener inthanks petra and atlantis for providing the latest announcements from the watchtower.. they are telling congregations to replace the 15 minute local needs talk in the midweek meeting of october 26th with a talk on neutrality.
i am not sure if this is due to there being a usa election on tues 3rd, november or because of their worldwide preaching campaign targeting government officials.
it does sound like it is due to the usa election due to comments about propaganda and political promises.

I particularly like the way publishers are told to use their own personal letterheads, as if they, as individuals, are the ones who dreamed up the campaign.
I suppose they want it to look like it's the deeply held, personal conviction of each letter writer, as opposed to an order from hq.

Zizek trilemma:
Loyalty- - - - Honesty - - - - Intelligence
You can have 2 qualities but not 3, because the third doesn't make sense. Helps explain people living under communist regimes and cults, and the mental tricks they need to cope.

Why Does It Seem That Black People Are Always Being Shot By The Police?
by minimus inthere is either a conspiracy against blacks in this country and police are out to get them or it’s that they are getting caught breaking the law and often times refuse to obey police authority.

Redvip,yep, everyone knows there are consequences for actions and choices. If a white scumbag, drug affected, violent offender got injured or worse while being arrested or incarcerated, I doubt there will too many tears shed by any other person, white or black, let alone violent protests and destruction of other people's property.
Yes, it's sad and regrettable that persons life screwed up but like you said, that's one less loose cannon in the world.

Simon, you mention the danger of group identity politics.
Almost certainly because of growing up as a jw, I totally agree with you. Group identity is dangerous. Even if someone naturally identifies with one group more than another, the challenge is to not allow that group to dictate your thoughts, feelings and particularly your treatment of others.
During the blm protests, so many times, self righteous protesters have bullied and intimidated others, forgetting all about equality and freedom of speech.

Today's WT Study: "Return to Jehovah" - Lots of Elephants in the Room
by Room 215 intoday's article prods active jws to participate in the effort to reactivate us backsliders.. unfortunately, it fails to prepare the participants to adequately address the real reasons so many have left and want nothing frtherethan to be left alone: the un and child abuse scandals, prophetic failures; dumbed-down, increasingly specious and simplistic verbiage in literature and talks, the cult of personality and unwarranted veneration of those 8 singularly unremarkable members of the gb, etc., etc..

Is it early pre-conditioning for the time in the future, when the org has no one that can officially call themselves anointed?
Is it a 2 way bet that allows the org to continue, while being led by 'capable brothers' while the world continues on long after armageddon should have taken place?
