>In 1966, Hubbard declared all-out war on psychiatry, telling Scientologists that "We want at least one bad mark on every psychiatrist in England, a murder, an assault, or a rape or more than one." He committed the Church of Scientology to the goal of eradicating psychiatry in 1969, announcing that "Our war has been forced to become 'To take over absolutely the field of mental healing on this planet in all forms.'"

Isn't Scientology dead

We need to boil babies now…

How about just listening to ordinary people and meeting them where they are instead of employing demonic wizardry

uhm based

it'd honestly be more useful for the left to do a critical analysis of the Peoples Temple, which was started by Jim Jones effectively as a front for communist and Black civil rights organizing by exploiting the deep ties that US culture has to religion and especially Christianity.

I don't think that everything about Jim Jones was CIA propaganda or anything and think it is perfectly plausible that some dude in the 70s with a ton of power over hundreds of people did end up being corrupted by it and turned into a sex pest, but this is more a problem of the historical context it happened in. I've always thought the overall strategy was completely brilliant and wondered why no other communists in the United States have ever tried something similarly. in fact, this whole dimension of the Peoples Temple that was the entire motivation for their founding seemingly was covered up because early on Jim Jones did in fact make a lot of progress in organizing to end segregation.

maybe it's just that the optics were too shitty but at this point does that even fucking matter anymore?

considering the L. Ron Hubbard personally knew Jack Parsons and was to some extent into Thelema shit (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L._Ron_Hubbard#After_the_war), and considering the affiliations that Crowley had with British intelligence, it would be silly to assume that he at the very least didn't have some friends in the US govt.

Scientology isn't dead, they've infiltrated the Trump administration and Linkin Park

>>2636964
They infiltrated Linkin Park?

>>2636949
Didn't the Catholic Church condemn the intermixing of communism and christianity, labeling it liberation theology? I think liberation theology won out in Nicaragua.

Doesn't Trump believe in manifestation and LOA

yeah the Hubbard/Parsons shit was spooky af too. british intelligence completely tore down america's and rebuilt in its own image during/after WWII, all the way down to whatever freaky moloch shit the british aristocracy's into. scientology was just a commercially successful spinoff from a line that stretches from Parsons through LaVey and Aquino, onward through Myatt and Sutter. I used to be on the fringes of some of this shit (NEVER any fucking O9A or related shit) and got the fuck out and started going to church again after I came to the conclusion that the whole history of modern LHP "traditions" was just spooks and kidfuckers all the way down

They tried so hard.
