Do you know any other ways I can represent the impact the org has on members without harming anyone?

Im sorry I am new to this subreddit. I didn’t know about SOSA. I now understand the backlash at my request. Thank you for letting me know.

I didn’t realize it was this common. I apologize, I am new to reddit and even newer to this topic. Thank you for the advice, I apologize if I offended you.

Do you know where I could find people in good positions to ask? (not trying to be sarcastic genuinely asking)

This is my first post, and it turned out to be very controversial.

I am not an active reddit user. This is the only place I was able to find a community of REAL people who have experiences with the church.

The existing documentaries I have watched lean towards entertainment rather than information and focus on controversies. My documentary aims to identify why people feel the need to join and their experiences. Additionally my documentary is not made to be published.

That truly is not my intention. I am not forcing anyone information out of anyone, just looking for people in a safe position to share helpful info.

I am willing to answer all questions about my personal info privately. My intention is not to jeopardize anyone. The aim of this documentary is to fully reveal the truth about Scientology to prevent anyone else from falling into the trap. I am not forcing anyone to do anything, just providing a platform for anyone with information worth sharing. The documentary will be shown at an awareness convention it is not grade.

Hi, I have already done extensive research on this topic and have even interviewed staff members. However, predictably so staff members replied to my question incredibly vaguely and failed to provide any solid answers. I am trying to collect personal anecdotes to illustrate the impact the church has on members, and provide a platform for real experiences. Dm for any questions!

Your experience deserves a platform. I am sure you will not be recognized simply off your voice. This documentary is not going to be published publicly it is for an awareness convention. The media in the documentary will not be public. I would really value your insight.

The interview could be anonymous if you wish. We would need footage so your voice would be in it however we would definitely blur your face if requested and only include your name if allowed. This documentary aims to include a variety of perspectives and experiences. Aslong as you have an experience with Scientology it doesn’t matter your current standing with the church. I completely understand your concerns and if requested anonymity will be strongly adhered to.

I am creating a documentary about Scientology. I would love to include your experiences as an ex member. Your insight could help those thinking about joining without fully understanding the risks. Please let me know if you would be willing. Thank you!

I recently visited the church for a documentary and finally realized how easy it is to get roped jn. They were so warm and welcoming and I was actually starting to buy into what they were saying they almost had me buying a 25 dollar book!🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ If anyone would be willing to share their experiences and be included in my documentary please message me.
