i just saw a post on reddit: ‘wt are prepping the r&f for changes in the march/april meeting workbook’.. in the post the person noted what they read (for march 8) and it mentioned bethel adjustments and reference was made to 2015 when bethelites were let go.. if this happens (yet again) another bunch of people are being sent home to fend for themselves in the big bad world at an advanced age with little to no preparation.
even though this doesn’t surprise me, it could not come at a worse time with a global pandemic and massive job loss everywhere..congregations are already in turmoil because of so many who reached retirement age totally unprepared because they were told armageddon would be here before they reached that age.
this is in addition to all the other ‘needy’ and troubled types in the congregations looking for as$istance.. i hope any bethelites there have a plan and some people they can contact.
About the printing aspect:
1. With most everything going digital, and the upcoming Media Center being built, why bother with the outdated printed material?
2. Now is the time to send the print people packing.
3. If/when printing starts up again, the presses will have been updated to be completely automated and require the least amount of human beings to run them. This isn't the 70's anymore. In fact, I'd be shocked if the new WT HQ's printing wasn't already run by a skeleton crew.
blondie, flipper, shirley w, where are you?

WatchTower has now effectively isolated, and made people prisoners in their own homes. They are truly "Slaves" to the WatchTower Corporation. This is sick on so many levels.
Question: Since the Field Ministry is basically non-existent, when do the stones start crying out?
hello all interested persons,.
whilst driving to work this morning listening to the radio, my ears pricked when the presenter began talking about jws.
it was on a programme which airs between 8.00 and 8.30 entitled am, and broadcast on the abc national radio.
This is "win-win" for the JW leadership. How so??
1. By now joining the redress scheme, they aren't going to pay anything to anyone.
2. Once the above happens and the Australian government revokes their charitable status, they can immediately start claiming, "Persecution!!!!!" and playing the "boo-hoo, whoith me!!" card. And the rank-n-file Sheeple who've been fed the "anything outside of JWdotBorg is from Satan", will eat it up hook, line, and sinker.
3. Then, with those cards being played, they'll start in on the guilt trips around the world to donate more to help out the Australian JW's who are being "persecuted" by Satan's wicked world governments.
The gaslighting and manipulation is so strong in this cult, it's sickening!
This cult is vile and evil.
in a recent feel-good instagram post about the 2019 international convention, a jw remarked, "was it the last convention we will have?".
there is no doubt jw's feel they are truly special and that world events revolve around them directly.
there is also no doubt that whether we get a vaccine for covid or not, and at the moment, its looking very certain that we will, that the world will continue to spin and life will go on, regardless of the beliefs of the jw's.. once the pandemic is over i'm wondering if some jw's will realise that even though they lived through a notable period of time, life kept sailing on, and maybe they aren't that special after all?
Truth be told (haha!), WT HQ can not WAIT to get back to having real Conventions.
How so?
Because they are HUGE money-makers! No Conventions = less money rolling in. Ever been to a Convention that had a surplus of funds after the first day? Neither have I! There always "under" with the added guilt trip thrown in about not showing enough gratitude like the Widow's mite, etc, etc......until they get a surplus and then send it all into WT HQ Pedo-defense fund anyway. Seriously! It always was, and always will be, a HUGE money-maker for them. Jehovah approved of course.
they finally sold the kingdom hall in sedona az.. the funny thing is the unity church of sedona bought it.
i like the unity people, they believe in loving everyone no matter what.
whatever you want to believe is fine by them.. is the planet changing?
YMCA for the rank-n-file Sheeple? = Bad Association, intermingling with Satan's Christendom, DF'ing offense.
WT HQ selling your KH to False Religion or being UN/NGO/DPI? = Nothing to see here, STFU and keep donating.
i remember so many witnesses who were pretty liberal minded.
i knew some that were the ones someone would talk to to get a “balanced “ perspective.
they were not hardliners.
I couldn't tell ya Minimus.......something like 90%+ of the ones I grew with my age LEFT, never to return! Only the truly brainwashed children of Elduh + Pionsneer Bitches are still in and baaaaah'ing like the Sheeple they are.
And my parents and the kindly old timers they studied with? All dead. ALL of them. You'd have to be complete MORON to join this cult today with all of the info at your fingertips thru the internet search engines.
with all the closing of halls.
and all the csa cases.
and all the jws not only slipping out the back door.
JW's, Mormons, and Scientologist numbers are shrinking dramatically due to their being exposed on tv, documentaries, the internet, etc.
I honestly think the REAL number of JW's is hovering around 2 million.
who wins?
who loses?
president/ senate/ house of representatives .
AbelJohn,
To address your comments. Know why Obama lasted as long as he did? No one wanted Biden to be President. He's the most anti-2nd Amendment person we've ever had near the White House, much less IN it. And Camel Harris? She makes Biden look like a Conservative! The "progressive" types are scary as hell. I laughed my ass off when people called Trump a Fascist. These progressive Liberal Squad bitches are the REAL Fascists! Freedom of Speech will be GONE. If you don't repeat after them, you're automatically an ignorant, right-wing white supremacist and racist Nazi who hates women and people of colour! In enraging the amount of gas-lighting these raging self-entitlement narcissists consistently spew out. They apparently don't mind the shithole conditions of LA, San Francisco, Detroit, Baltimore, Filthy-delphia, and Portland, and Seattle. Nope! They think used drug needles, feces, and tent cities are A-ok!!!! In fact, they like it so much they want to export it to the rest of the USA. Forest management? What's that? Doesn't matter if half the state burns, as long as the Paris Accord is signed and the carbon tax is in place!! Immigrants, whether legal or not? Let them ALL in!!! No matter how to pay for them, Socialism means you have a license to print money perpetually and steal from the Social Security that actual Americans have paid into for decades without consequence! Are you complaining? Well then, you're not "woke" yet and need to adjust your thinking. If you think it's wrong for a dude dressed a woman to use the same bathroom as your 5 yr old daugher, well then YOU are the problem!
I weep for the future.

Just heard Biden took the lead here now in Pennsylvania. As a PA resident, now I'm positive the election has been rigged and stolen. There is no way in hell that Philadelphia/Pitt/Harrisburg Democrats outnumbered the sheer volume of Republicans across the entire heartland of this state, who came out in record numbers and droves, and waited HOURS to vote in huge long lines. There is no fuggin' way in hell. And that's assuming every single person in those cities was Democrat, which obviously isn't the case.....SOME had to vote Republican?
This was my first time voting in my life. I registered just to vote in this election. I feel totally conned and like I wasted my time. (I used mail in ballot!) People are now in awe in this state.....jaws on floor. 99% of the company I work for (265 employees) voted Republican. No one can even stand our Dictator Governor Wolf, much less Biden.
I should have known though. I couldn't believe my eyes on election night when I saw that they called Biden to win Virginia! I don't believe that shit either! People down there HATE that baby-killing POS, and I'm actually shocked they haven't tried to tar, feather, and lynch him yet! Yet somehow, everyone voted BLUE and BIden took the state? Yeah, I call BULL-FUGGIN-SH*T on that!
We have been conned, big time. I expect Harris to drive the nails into the coffin of what once was a great Republic after Biden mysteriously dozes off into oblivion or 25th Amend'd, and the Senate magically falls into Democratic hands as well in a few days of "recounting."
