Is the FBI made up of people susceptible to partisan corruption?
Does the Memo shed light on this?
Are there facts which might be actionable?
Should we care?
That's all I see.

ALDI have accomplished the same thing here in Liverpool. There are ALDI supermarkets popping up all over the place. Is Jehovah blessing them too?
____________
Pale Emperor,
ALDI's, and TRADER JOE'S were started by a former soldier in the Nazi army, Theo Albrecht, and his brother.
Such a blessing is indeed an appropriate analogy! -

Using Watchtowers Own Reasoning Against Them RE: The Governing Body
by pale.emperor insomething occurred to me today.
quite randomly as i was working away at my desk i remembered an illustration from the bible teach book in which satan claimed he knew better than jehovah about ruling mankind.
here's the illustration from chapter 11 of that book:.

In a Science lab, the teacher who allows a "rebellious" student to blow up the classroom for "teaching moment" is a monster.
Those who have rebelled against Jehovah believe they are right and learn exactly nothing at the point of death.
Proving you know better to inferior creatures whom you kill is not exactly the perfect illustration of Divine Wisdom.
So...there is that.
As far as the O.P. question about the G.B.?
G.B. is self-defined as a conduit, a channel of communication, not unlike a drain pipe from heaven. These men are vessels; delivery systems for heavenly messages. This is their delusion, It is the service they're selling.
Being "right" or being "wrong" about doctrine is unprovable because this sort of "Truth" is solely in the mind of God.
However...
Making predictions based on guesswork about chronology is repeatedly falsifiable.
The failures of the Faithful Slave from the time of Pastor Russell have actually been rather BESIDE THE POINT, haven't they?
The Watchtower is all about loyalty--not proof.
Various Governing Bodies have been clogged drains of error repeatedly and they still rule serially without nullification.
Conclusion?
Being Right isn't what it is all about.
Being Loyal, Obedient, and in Power is the game.

Having your life programmed by the WTS is like being in a play and saying the same lines for your character over and over day after day with the firm assurance of outcome at the end.
It's all laid out for you.

I forgot to mention, I've known several people (well, 3 at least) who disavowed Watchtower living, then-- went out and wrecked their lives because they had zero idea how to make practical personal decisions.
One of those persons was my first wife.
Slightly off-topic, but relevant...
During the time JoAnn was going off the rails, no JW visited her and tried to set her back on course.
No effort was made to sit her down with a Judicial Committee.
No effort was made to DF her.
It is my personal opinion that she never CONSCIOUSLY intended to NOT be a JW. She had been rattled by the failure of 1975 and lost faith.
Consequently, without an alternate strategy and with no confidantes to advise her--she died in a chase with the cops, drunk at the wheel. (Her driver's license had been suspended. -

Damn! I've been hacked.
Can I un-hack the hack?
Neurotic means life isn't working because of _____.
You wash your hands too much.
You start arguments.
You are hoarding.
You are superstitious. You make excuses. Blah blah blah.
I become a friend to the man I wish to be.
My JW self is an injured person on the side of the road.
My efforts are guided toward kindness, healing, and restoration.
Each day, I select an important vocabulary word.
I write down what the JW Terry would say followed what
the best new version of ideal Terry would say.
If I leave this world a better place through individual acts of kindness, I am part of the healing and not the wounding of mankind.
I learn to identify others as persons, NOT categorizing them in group Identities or attributing characteristics of a collective to unique individuals.
I avoid Politics.
I don't join movements.
I've proven in the past, I am a god-a-holic.
I may have the cravings--but--just one drink sets me on a binge. -

Imagine a knock at the door.
Who is there?
It is an Optometrist offering free eye exams!
Come in--come in.
Within months, you're wearing a new pair of specially prescribed glasses...and SEEING THINGS DIFFERENTLY.
____Jehovah's Witnesses wear "those" glasses.
WE ALL wore them.
The lenses colored what we saw and the feedback from the Governing Body "explained" why things didn't look the same.
"Only NOW--are you seeing the Truth," they whisper._____
Hang on to that analogy for a moment or two, okay?
We didn't just get glasses.
We were hypnotized and told to do something as ridiculous as
"Quack like a duck".
Except--it wasn't all in fun as entertainment.
No.
We were hypnotized and told lies about ourselves and our entire world.
The quacking wasn't animal noises--it was propaganda messages.
We were transformed into a kind of Pizza delivery service of weaponized "Jehovah-flavored" meals.
The meals were laced with mind-altering ingredients!
____
Still with me?
____Until we "woke up" and found our life down around our ankles, that hypnotic trance hijacked everything we are and everybody we know.
ARE WE AWAKE--really awake now?
DID WE REMOVE those glasses prescribed by the GB?
Have you ever been asleep and dreamed you were awake?
_____
This may be the most important question you'll ever answer.
_____I was hypnotized at a party once--for fun. In my head--I was just "going along with the gag" and "pretending" to be hypnotized.
Guess what?
That tiny surrender IS hypnosis.
You give yourself a reason for quacking like a duck.
Then--you "wake up" and people are laughing. At YOU.What just happened?
Every time you hear the word "elbow" you start quacking again!
(Post-hypnotic suggestion.)I am NOT a believer in hypnosis but that didn't save me
:)
______What is the point of my story?
Here it is. Ready for it?We don't EASILY escape!
We may still be wearing those glasses.
We may still feel an uncontrollable urge to "quack."_____
Is there an EXAM for that?Here is a quick one I made for myself.
It's up to you whether you use it and how you feel about it.
_____SELF EXAM
1. Do you see the world in terms of Good and Evil, Friend or Foe?
Either this or that?
Or is there a whole lot of grayscale in everyday life?
Or is there a color spectrum?2. Do you still wonder what the Bible "really means?"
Do you find yourself plunging into debates?
Are you intrigued by conspiracy theories?
Have you wandered off into fringe areas and discussions?3. Have you substituted Political beliefs for religious obsessions?
Do you argue for your side and damn the rest?
Find yourself regarding different viewpoints as "stupid"?4. Are you able to relax and enjoy a day to day life or do you feel compelled to pick at troubles, making complications, puzzling at mysteries
constantly?
Do you Pray? Chant? Mumble?:)5. If somebody asks you, "What do you believe?" What is the urgency of your emotional response?
Is it defensive or casual?
Are your personal opinions robust or measured and relaxed?6. Do find yourself challenging the opinions of other people with a slightly unfriendly tone?
Or can you allow the views of others to wash over you without strong emotions...live and let live?7. Do you find yourself asking the question:
"But what if JW's really DO have "the Truth?"8. Have you found a new central source of information?
A guru? An expert? A spiritual advisor?
Or do you perform wide-ranging skeptical inquiry from a great many sources?____
The answers you now give might be red flags.You may still be wearing those glasses!
You may still be offering a "Quack"!I leave you with this one thought:
The same brain that got you into a Kingdom Hall in the first place does not magically disappear with a fresh, reboot automatically.
No.
The Jehovah's Witness way of seeing the world REMAINS until you do the work to clean out the cobwebs, dust, dirt, grime and spider's eggs.Life doesn't come with an Owner's Manual.
Nobody has all the answers.____
(Self-examination takes years of effort. After all, it is your MIND doing the inspection of...ITSELF!)

"Brilliant" as to strategy.
Newman's technique is a weaponized mischaracterization.
"The sun is shining and it is a beautiful day" becomes
"So you're saying those of us who enjoy night time are deluded fools?"
1. The interviewee is seen to be gobsmacked AS IF guilty and fumbling to cover their ass.
2. The interviewee is put on the defensive (a bad place to be.)
3. The interviewee can't move on until the fires lit in his communication are put out.4. A constant barrage of separate questions lights new wildfires leaving the interviewee scrambling.
In other words, it is a shooting gallery and not an interview.
SJW's watching this assassination are on Newman's side already; waiting to view any pushback as aggression.CULTURAL MARXISM is upon us and has been for decades
The people who are fighting it are being marked by people like Cathy Newman. That's her ideology at work. Divide and conquer.
