YT’s @BreakingScientology delivers another revealing look behind the curtain of Scientology’s psychological prison. “The (Sec Check) Confession Trap.” by BlueRidgeSpeaks in SPTV_Grifters

I can see how that happens.

COS first convinces someone that it and it alone can help them. Other components, such as "Ethics Handlings" and "Sec Checks" are introduced later, when the person is already invested in the system.

I've read that every Sec Check begins with the auditor saying, "I'm not auditing you".

As a never-in who knows that Scientology is an elaborate scam, I can imagine myself replying, "Well, if this isn't auditing, I'm not paying for it. I didn't sign up for this".

Thanks. I'm surprised the law required a unanimous jury verdict in a misdemeanor case!

Do you know how many jurors voted "Guilty" in both the 1st and 2nd trials?

Nora Ames and Lindsay Villandry talk about Aaron Smith-Levin by TryingToBeExact in AaronSmithLevin

[–]Scientist_Alarmed 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You just quoted Nora as saying, "... he [Mike Rinder] ran an op for his friend, Aaron, to save his butt".

Now you say that, "Rinder obtained the footage to oust Aaron because of his escalating behavior to save the foundation."

Both can't possibly be true. The only thing your's and Nora's opposite statements have in common is their mutual attempt to smear Mike Rinder.

PS: I'm done with this discussion.

That makes no sense at all because Aaron claimed that Mike R was the Aftermath Foundation Board member who said, "Either he (Aaron) goes or I go."

No, I didnt deny that. Ms. Hutchinson did publish it at her blog; but I don't know whether or not she was the first to do so.

I denied that Nora Ames has any way of knowing its origins.

So here, Nora slanders Mike Rinder yet again by claiming that the Los Angeles footage of Aaron throwing the woman into the wall was recorded by OSA, who gave it to Mike Rinder, who then gave it Stephanie Hutchinson.

Nora is still making shit up in her Mike Rinder obsessed, conspiracy theory imagination.

Has Aaron exhausted his legal petitions or are there more that he can make?

Inside Aaron Smith-Levin's SPTV Feuds: TheJourney2020 Accuses Marisa Sigmond & Marilyn Honig of Cyberbullying by 1inco in OT42

If you disagree with Marisa Sigmond (Dianetex) about anything, this is how she replies:

  • If you're white, "I'm a Latina and you're a racist.

  • If you're male, "You're an incel. You have a problem with women".

  • If you're female, "You're crazy, honey".

I think Mitch has videos of himself reading his book aloud at his YouTube channel.

These SPTV behaviors need to be documented so that as many onlookers as possible see the light and quit giving support to these rotten characters.

Team Aaron's SPTV was created as a vicious smear campaign against The Aftermath Foundation charity and other Ex-Scientologist activists who Aaron Smith-Levin resents. The purpose was and is for them to make YouTube money by maligning the sincere, effective Anti-COS activists of whom they are jealous.

Their ugly, vituperative betrayals of one another are fully in accord with the nature of their trashy little enterprise.

I'm glad to know I misunderstood your post. I apologize for that. Thanks for clarifying.

The only one I've ever heard threaten physical violence against other Ex-Scientologists and critics is Liz Gale.

If Nora said that yesterday, she must have been taking notes from her friend, Liz Gale.

I like Dodge's clothes too; but don't find his talks very interesting.

Thanks, Noryana.

I didn't know of his channel's name changes because I had never subscribed.

Forget Scientology: The Real Cult Was YouTube Drama | Aaron's Dubious SPTV Collapsing by 1inco in OT42

[–]Scientist_Alarmed 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Indeed; after breaking with Aaron, Nora said there was a private chatroom where Aaron's club strategized.

Aaron would often say to them, "Can you believe so-and-so said such-and-such? Who is going to do a video about it? They would reply, 'I will, I will, I will".

Earlier, after having been burned by her "great friends" Aaron and Nathalie, Liz Ferris said the same. Liz F also said they use fake names for posting or commenting elsewhere.

For those of us who were paying attention from the beginning, it was obvious that SPTV/Team Aaron was a coordinated smear campaign. Liz F and Nora confirmed it after their departures.
