Does this look like the WT is going to be around a long time? One Watchtower @ One Awake for the public in 2022
by pistolpete ini keep hearing that the watchtower org is going to be around forever because of the many other religions that have been around a long time.
but i disagree because the wt is not like other religious cults.. the watchtower's breath of life is dependent on the last days that started in 1914. .
you can’t change 1914 without a death blow to the entire organization.. the watchtower's 2nd reason for staying alive, is it's continual urging that the life saving preaching work of warning people is the most important work ever.. but- it's very obvious to many, even the old ones that instead of speeding up the work------the work is slowing down to a drip.. comment by former believer; .

CO retirement severance?
by road to nowhere ina friend says the wt gives a substantial sum to retiring cos. he says one bought land and built near him, a desirable rural area.
i think it must have been saved green handshake money or inherited.. btw this man also thinks the gb are the smartest men alive..

Taxpayer Money Direct to Union Pockets
by Simon inthe dems are not even trying to hide what they do anymore.. the latest is a direct payoff for political support by providing a $4500 subsidy on electric vehicles ... but only if they are made by union workers.. it's not the job of government to put their hand on the scale, especially not to benefit those who support them politically through campaign contributions.. corruption - it's what they do best.. https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-tesla-union-bill-tax-incentive-unionized-ev-makers-2021-9.

The unfolding crisis in Afghanistan is completely Joe Biden's fault, nobody else's
by LoveUniHateExams inso, there's been a lot of talk on social media, blaming trump for the current crisis that began at the weekend.. it's a load of bullsh!t from deluded people who are desperate to blame anyone but joe biden, the idiot they voted for or at least wanted to win last november.. there is only one person, just one person, to blame: joe biden.. he has the heavy burden of making tough presidential decisions.. and after this debacle, it's reasonable to ask if he's up to making such decisions..
