If so, these high-control groups can, to some extent, even control outsiders.

Geographical inaccuracies you cant shake
by GabeAthouse inwhere your mental image of a place does not match up with where you intellectually know it actually is?
1. great britain: i always picture it to the west of france.
if i'm reading about the norman invasion or d-day i always see it in my head as crossing the channel east-west / west-east.

Possible Complaints From WT About JWs Going To Brunches And Going On Vacations
by HiddlesWife ini recently heard from a few pimos and saw on the exjw reddit that the above topic was discussed during a midweek meeting (clam).
the reddit member mentioned that there were complaints from the branch that too many dubs "were posting too many vacation and brunch pictures [on social media] when that time could have been spent in service!
if this is reality--and knowing this cultcorporation, i wouldn't be a bit surprised--they are really trying to stop the r&f/ members from enjoying normal human activities.

If the WT Ramapo Propaganda Compound is completed, we can expect WT will resume shaming JWs that chose to spend resources for personal pleasure holidays instead of a Ramapo NY pilgrimage.

Does anyone else depise that newer original song/video from WT... "Just Around the Corner"
They glamorize wasting decades of life pursuing the WT mirage.

Booster shots required for Bethelites and special full time servants?
by PimoElder init’s a shame the gov body did a big u turn on vaccines .
if they continue with the rule that only fully vaxed can go back to the hall then i could have stayed on zoom.
but the term fully vaxed is a moving target, if it’s been like six months since your last shot you are just the same as those of us who are unvaxed .

If large monetary incentives had been offered for WT to endorse vaccines during the eras of JFR/Knorr/Franz... WT probably would have devised some new light on the matter in order to benefit monetarily, or at least to curry favor of uber-vax authorities.

WT can use & abuse special full-time volunteers in this way because those volunteers often ignorantly agree to the WT "vow of obedience & poverty"

JWs are being conditioned to use social media as a tool to spy on fellow JWs, and interested persons.
The Haley videos at the 2022 convention demonstrate this JW problem of spy & judge.

In person attendance
by road to nowhere inwe got the inevitable letter today.. meet, associate and "encourage" in person unless sick or infirm.
also dress up for zoom if you must use it.
locally over half are on zoom, 3/4 no picture.

and many JW congregations are still experiencing illness outbreaks, but they are not broadcasting the sick little fact... because "the GB is convinced Jehovah has been blessing this arrangement"

Yeah, what happened to JWs 'high regard for human life and safety' ?
Ordering millions of JWs to march out knocking house to house...
Covid cases and community transmission are as active now in 2022 as they were in the first wild year of "2020 pandemic" when WT panicked and suspended "the lord's work" because they have such a 'high regard for human life and safety'
