this whole "zoom" thing has got me wondering whether some of it is legal or not.
if a person has to dress up for a zoom meeting the way the watchtower dictates, doesn't this really go "beyond" cult?.
even the cults who committed mass suicide were able to dress the way they wanted for their meetings.
In the UK JWs signed a document regarding the org using their info online with the data protection laws whether that includes the homes of JWs , and if they agree to using zoom might excuse the org .
Even though some may not want to use zoom in the privacy of their own home's because of the pressure from the org and elders hopefully that would be against their human rights etc

Behavior Control: An individual’s associations, living arrangements, food, clothing, sleeping habits, finances, etc., are strictly controlled.
Information Control: Cult leaders deliberately withhold or distort information, lie, propagandize, and limit access to other sources of information.
Thought Control: Cult leaders use loaded words and language, discourage critical thinking, bar any speech critical of cult leaders or policies, and teach an “us vs. them” doctrine.
Emotional Control: Leaders manipulate their followers via fear (including the fear of losing salvation, fear of shunning, etc.), guilt, and indoctrination
Yes technically a sect but uses the same physiological manipulation and coercive control as a cult
not only do they want everyone dressed up for the zoom meetings( which i won't do) they decided to keep the zoom meeting at 1pm sunday!
so they don't upset their spiritual routine!
ugh!
Can't you just record a loop of your self mind do a couple people will notice if you're wearing the same clothes,😀
is there anything interesting we should know about?
?.
i haven’t posted here for years as i have now moved on and am satisfied with the choice i have made to leave watchtower.
however in light of the coronavirus and people in australia and other countries being asked to stay at home i became concerned for a witness sister who lives in melbourne alone who is 88 years old.
today i gave her a call as i don’t trust the local witnesses to care for her.
If she is happy to stay in,we had a older brother who was not sure if he was of the annointed ,
We simply said if you have to ask then probably not (as god's spirit bears witness with your spirit)
That put him at ease.
there will be no hope that she will ever come out of the wt abyss.
her mind is so diluted with the cult, i.e.
the best life ever.
The tactics cult's and domestic abusers use are the same.
