Is WT Using ATTENDANTS At The Conventions To Be: "TOY COPS"
by HiddlesWife in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i have heard from a few ppimis and several pimos that the attendants who are stationedly-assigned to the front entrances of the borgvenues (cahs and other arenas) have been checking to see if any persons (members and non-member visitors) have badges.

on the other hand, if these persons don't have one, this is what i was told that these dubs do this: corral around the non-badge-wearing individual and interrogate he/she/them plus questioning them, "why are you here?!".

also, even if that person or persons have an invitation plus showed it to these dubs, these toy cops still do that procedure.

one of my close pimo relatives showed me the article and spoke about today's study.

she was disturbed concerning the points/statements within it, such as: "so, the more we get to know those in the congregation, the more likely we are to see more of their flaws.

sadly, some have allowed the imperfections of others to stumble them.

this relative is a distant cousin on my mother's side of the family.

Possible Complaints From WT About JWs Going To Brunches And Going On Vacations
by HiddlesWife in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i recently heard from a few pimos and saw on the exjw reddit that the above topic was discussed during a midweek meeting (clam).

the reddit member mentioned that there were complaints from the branch that too many dubs "were posting too many vacation and brunch pictures [on social media] when that time could have been spent in service!

if this is reality--and knowing this cultcorporation, i wouldn't be a bit surprised--they are really trying to stop the r&f/ members from enjoying normal human activities.

Is WT Influencing Dubs To Check On Other Dubs' Activities Via ZOOM And Otherwise?
by HiddlesWife in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
the reason for my question is because one pimo has noticed that there are some pimis--particularly spimis--who have remarked that they "are not going to contact nor associate with the friends who are delinquent on zoom and/or at in-person kh meetings, conventions, and assemblies".

i've noticed this as well: a few ppimis and pimqs who were very close to me and my exdub family members are hearing from them less and less lately than before last year's rc and this year's rc.

so, is the above a thing nowadays?

Has Anyone Had any JWs PHYSICALLY Put Their Hands On You (And Not Within A Family Unit Situation)?
by HiddlesWife in

2. scandals
i was asking the above question because a pomo friend of my family told me about an incident involving her and a couple of dubs who were physically abusive in the past.. a single sister who was running around from one cong to another cong looking for a husband.

she was visiting my friend's cong for less than a year.

there was a commuter bethellite bro who was very friendly towards my friend (which i'll call her "q") and her fam members.
