    True. And a lot depends on the local body of elders and which 3 they choose. Mostly foregone conclusions and if there is a grudge or someone is out to get you.

    Very telling that they pull in their witnesses but give you no time or ability to defend yourself with your own rebuttal.

    Kangaroo court, lynch mob, vigilantes are terms that apply

    An error in the last part of the video. He says that earlier people were disfellowshipped only if they spread apostate thoughts to others, but with the new elder's book, a judicial committee is formed even if a person has not shared apostate thoughts with anyone, but just has it in his mind.

    This is incorrect.

    SFL 12:39.3:

    If one obstinately is speaking about or deliberately spreading false teachings, this may be or may lead to apostasy. If there is no response after a first and a second admonition, a judicial committee should be formed.Titus 3:10, 11; w86 4/1 pp. 30-31.

    If you are not liked, the supercilious schnooks will find a way to get rid of you.

    Power corrupts. Like their leaders the Governing Body(tm)(Pee be upon them), they enjoy abusing people and especially children.

    Funny.

    This subject has been discussed here before, and it actually sounds right.

    If they become aware of “apostate” thinking, they’ll check from time to time to see if they persist, even if you don’t talk about them to anyone, and will keep “counselling” you until you change your mind.

    If you don’t, they’ll initiate a JC.

    Maybe you’re using an older copy of the Shepherding book.

    Born - ins.

    True victims of cult indoctrination.

    They have no choice, that's all they know.

    Victims.. Unfair disadvantage. Opportunities lost early.
