It's very advanced, the software turns every pixel of your screen into a miniature camera, sensing slight fluctuations in the quantum field to pick up a shadow of your appearance. This is then augmented at the server-side using artificial intelligent guesswork to re-create your image.
Warning: it can also suck up a little of your soul or life-force, but the benefit to me is that I gain immortality. So not all bad. Well, for me anyways ...

I have a ton of emails from him whining about various things, typically wanting people's posts removed. He really can't stand not to be in control.
Man, I was way too over-patient back then!

An employee doing something in their own time is nothing todo with their employer, it's nothing that their employer has directed them todo and they are not using any specific position based on their employment. People don't lose personal liability just because someone employs them.
The liability comes from the employer putting them in a certain position and the person using that position to harm someone.
In the case of the WatchTower, the org puts them in control of people as a local authority over them and gives them access to people.

There is a very clear and direct authority structure all the way down from the Governing Body through the regional, branch, district and circuit overseers down to elders and ministerial servants.
All are in their positions at the say-so of a hierarchical management structure. Hirings and firings always come from above. No one is elected by their local congregation.
This will cost them. They will need to carry insurance to cover what the representatives they have assigned do.
They can't throw up their hands and say "it had nothing to do with us" and leave local elders to carry the responsibility for what the organization directs them to do.

Toblerone - I don't think faking screenshots provides any benefit whatsoever. If something is intended to be a funny meme, it needs to be more obvious or clearly labelled as such. Doctored screenshots without commentary don't help anyone so I have removed them.

I hadn't seen this post of his before, it's interesting for a few reasons. It's from Feb 5, so really early, but after he did his livestream where you can see the moment a random synapse hits on the "libellous" idea.
First, he's describing Kim's warning statement as an "ongoing" and "persistent" campaign. So he does something every 2-3 months for 4+ years and doesn't think that warrants the "regular" label but someone does something once and it's suddenly ongoing & persistent? Hmmn ...
Second, he admits that spending money on legal work would mean, as he puts it "money given to support my work ends up almost entirely in the pockets of lawyers". By that same definition he's admitting that the money given to support his work did in fact end up in the pockets of prostitutes, that he spent the money on things that it was not intended for.
And of course, he's wrong imagining that he can in any way fix or erase the fallout from his own behavior and subsequent attempts to silence people.
Also, it's rich that once again he brings his family into this, as though other people did this to them when it was all his own cheating regularly over many years.

Lloyd still isn't self-aware enough not to go throwing the word "narcissist" about?!
I'm not sure we really know enough, if anything, about the GB members personally to put that label on them.
Unlike "someone" ...
some sensible advice presented in a rational way.
check out the channel.. a couple of the videos i've watched so far:.

WT must fall
I think it's sensible to start with the assumption that simply isn't going to happen. Try to come up with a realistic scenario for it happening, where the org ceases to exist and everyone just goes on their way - I don't think you can.
So lets focus on what we can do - help people to exit successfully, share experiences that people can learn from and take inspiration from.
Constant "rah rah" claims that we're going to fight and destroy them is simply unrealistic and a waste of energy, plus it wastes people's lives and makes them focus on retaliation, revenge and being bitter.
i want to create a new site to help people leaving the wts.. the idea is that it will be curated content of articles and videos on specific subjects such as how to fade, how to handle family, personal experiences of leaving, mistakes to avoid, plus practical life matters impacted by the wts such as how to create or rebuild a career, planning for retirement, getting counselling, making friends etc.... the idea is that it should be lots of voices to share the love and promote lots of people's channels so it becomes a more effective resource (hopefully there will always be something informative and appealing to the people visiting).. if you have a youtube channel that you would like featured, or maybe have some specific video or series that would suit, i'd be happy to include them.. likewise, if you have a subject you'd like to write about and can share some practical knowledge and guidance on, or have a life-story you'd like to share because your experience could benefit others, please let me know.. i bought a domain and setup some placeholder content:.

please message me or post here if you have any questions or ideas..
In my experience everyone; but everyone, makes at least some errors when they write anything lengthy
I don't think my fingers are always fully connected to my brain!
So yeah, if you ever see anything that doesn't make sense or is plain wrong (more on an "article site", no need for every little comment on here) just let me know - thanks :)

Thanks, that would be good - one of the surprising things is that exJWs (and never JWs) often know a whole lot more about the organization than the people loyal to it.
Almost like those things are connected somehow.
