Yes, Wally. How can people disassociate mentally the kind of person a speaker is from what that speaker is saying? Would we listen to and support one who speaks against killing elephants, but who then goes to Africa and kills elephants? Would we pay money to a “save the forest” fund if we know the recipient bulldozes rainforest on vacation?

Yet, people turn to Evans for advice on how to handle crises in their lives when exiting Watchtower. JW's who are exiting the horrible "high control group" don't know where to go for information on their new situation. They had previously thought that "the elders" should be consulted in a crisis. Evans presents himself as the "go to" guy for all things "exjw". Kim Silvio has done a huge favor to exjw's by providing insight into the "qualifications" of Evans as a "counselor".

Lloyd seems, to me, to be angry with “God” in general. Exposing Catholicism as a false religion does nothing to wake up Jehovah’s Witnesses from “their” Watchtower false religion. Neither does exposing Catholicism as a false religion protect any CSA victims from Watchtower’s counter-productive judicial meeting rule book.
Wiki gives a newly minted term: slacktivism.
”Performative activism is activism done to increase one’s social capital rather than because of one’s devotion to a cause. It is often associated with surface-level activism, referred to as slacktivism. The term gained an increased usage on social media in the wake of the George Floyd protests.”

I had to search back to see what I'd been commenting on, ozziepost.
DerekMoors had commented,
"That's exactly one of his hypocrisies, back when he was calling protestors and anyone who disagreed with him "regressive activists" and said that they were "setting the movement backward."
I can't think of anyone I've come across in the past few years who has done more damage to any xJW "movement" than him."Link +1 / -0
