I was in that Manchester circuit back in the day. The very best bit was if my mum let me make sandwiches in that little room upstairs where you could chat and work and not really listen to the piped sessions.
it’s so desperately sad and pathetic that Lloyd is having to brag about MTS school. It was years ago and it was a sad little made up program to make people think they had a bit of status. It’s like an old man in a pub, ruminating, salty eyed over a shoe selling training course his company sent him on 45 years ago (‘and they said I was the best shoe seller in the south west of Norfolk area’).
It’s a clear indication that he doesn’t rate anything he has ever done since. His heart is still placing WTS an a ‘one up’ authority.

I think the situation about him owning the land is correct because it rings true with a conversation I had with him once a long time ago after we recorded the podcast, where he was explaining what a nightmare he was having trying to find out who owned the land the house was say on. It makes sense that he would have been trying to find it out in order to buy it.

I think dijana is probably stuck in a trauma bond. This short video describes exactly how it happens and how you get stuck in situations that both you and all your friends know it one you should leave.
Also if her dad was an alcoholic then she will have been trained as a child in a trauma bond accidentally because alcoholics offer intermittent emotional availability. https://youtu.be/UZu3kVBYclM

Well I think we have an answer to one of our questions 😂. I hope he reaches 370 soon!

Sounds like he’s copying the Street Epistomology style, but that is done with intelligence and a genuine motive to learn, not to secretly mock.
This guy is brilliant, Lloyd couldn’t do this because his heart is in finding a new audience and making money, not in genuine inquiry and connection with people. https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-street-epistemology-podcast/id1117153385

Amazing how Lloyd conflates ‘we’re all imperfect’ with ‘I cheated on my wife regularly for 4 years with prostitutes using money donated for anti CSA activism’.
im sure anyone who has done something both illegal, immoral and shit can rebrand it as ‘we’re all imperfect’.

So this is the law that I think Lloyd is bringing criminal charges under.
However the charge has to be an offence in the country you are bringing the charges. Also it has to be proved as a charge, which I honestly don’t think it is.
Even if Lloyd could prove it I think it would fall foul of Article 28 ‘frivolous’.

I personally have no time for someone who is PIMO and still willing to serve as an elder. That is perpetuating the cult abuse on the congregation. You might think you are ‘one of the good ones’. Every single elder who has ever left has consoled themselves with that paper thin self delusional excuse. If you are an elder your sole job is to enforce the rules on others - dress, grooming, attendance, field service, inability to go to university or pursue a career, chastity, fidelity, monogamy, blood transition, abortion, etc
You might be a lovely elder who has let your own kids go to college to learn something that would half support them in the real world but the rest of the congregation don’t know you think it’s all shit. They are busy making sure they don’t do anything that triggers a judicial committee - that you will in all probability be on.
And you remain inside the system because you have things to lose that you are unwilling to lose. That people more courageous and honest than you are willing to be disfellowshiped for and lose everything.
You would rather keep whatever it is you are scared to lose and be an enforcer on everyone else.
PIMO elder, my arse. Cowardly concentration camp guard who wants to plead at the end ‘but I was nice and I didn’t really believe it’.

Hi it’s Alexander James and she was another victim of lloyd in the end. Like me she was posting stuff about him in the last iteration of whatever outrage he had manufactured, and she got jaded with the whole thing and gave up, and decided to bow out completely.
I doubt if I still have the screenshots of the website / domain name debacle. When I quit activism I deleted the whole folder of screenshots because I figured it was childish to keep them. Like finishing with an awful boyfriend and blocking him on everything but not removing his number from your phone - because deep down you know you’re not honestly done.
I was honestly done so I deleted everything and blocked lloyd everywhere that he hasnt already blocked me.
