16Remember using the term BORG to refer to the WTS
by blondie init's interesting that when watchtower is referred to as the borg, it immediately brings to mind the scenes where individuals such as captain piccard are held prisoner within a vast collective hive type prison and unable to leave.
they are then turned into drones.
in fact here is how wikipedia explains it.. the borg are a fictional alien group that appear as recurring antagonists in the star trek franchise.

Big difference is Star Trek’s Borg were scary AF right from the get-go, and tremendously powerful.

Reddit thread on convention video urging cutting off contact with Faders
by LongHairGal ini just read this.
don’t know if anybody here has seen the video.. the intended result of this is to obviously scare ‘faders’ out of the shadows.
now, they are being threatened with loss of association with their loved ones and friends.

blondie - “I don't understand that the WTS is encouraging jws to make contact with df'd relatives and then telling to end contact with those who have just stopped attending and/or participating, but not saying things against the WTS and are leading a life that they could be df'd.”
Maybe it was only ever a tug on the leash.

WT AUGUST 2025: NEW LIGHT ON HAILSTONE MESSAGE : IS IT BIBLICAL OR JUST CONVENIENT?
by raymond frantz inhttps://youtu.be/n_fttvylm-m?si=l44406ohysubkajr.
so today we are considering, the watchtower's new take on the "hailstone message", and if you don't know what that is , they used to believe that according to revelation 16:21 they would be preaching a hard hitting message during the time of the end.
now, let's read the verse first from the new world translation: "then great hailstones, each about the weight of a talent, fell from heaven on the people, and the people blasphemed god because of the plague of hail, for the plague was unusually great" now this is their new understanding as it appears from the 3rd paragraph from their new watchtower study edition for august 2025 and their article:when will the preaching work end, has this to say: "our clarified understanding of matthew 24:14 also adjusts our understanding of the hailstonelike message foretold at revelation 16:21. further examination has revealed that the two scriptures complement each other.

Halcon - “…This religion has a complex task ahead. To change into a mainstream Christian religion from a doomsday end-times one. But they're laying the foundation with every little change made in last couple of years.”
I don’t think they’ll actually be able to pull it off.
The more they double-down on the old hardline and authoritarian stances, the more they alienate young members and potential converts, and the more their tax-exemption/state subsidies are placed at risk…
…but…
…becoming a more authentic “mainstream” Christian denomination would effectively neuter all the things they’ve held up for decades as hard proof they alone have “The Truth”…
…the WTS’s entire raison d’etre, from their perspective.
Either way, the incentive to be a JW becomes further eroded.

Beth Sarim - “…They cant lose anymore free labor or money/donations.”
I suspect it’s more to hide the lack of membership growth.
“Growth = God’s blessing”, after all.
