@freddo Well, this video is only a year old:
Once again, the extreme left's obsession with equity pushes civilisation closer and closer to the edge of social chaos.
is there a change in the way child sex offenders are being perceived?

not quite a week ago, @lost in the fog created a thread entitled: do you have this illness?.
https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5187824140681216/do-you-have-this-illness.
in my year of being on this forum, i have browsed many a disillusioned thread of ex-jehovah’s witnesses expressing similar symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder when detailing their awakening - my own story included.
@Lost in the fog: "Your post jo-ho is an inspiration for the many."
Hey - your original post was what gave birth to this one. Thank YOU for being the inspiration behind this.
@Whynot I didn't realize that these were tougher than usual months for you. I'm only a year faded and sometimes still get taken off guard by emotional setbacks from the cult. Thanks for keeping it real and helping me realistically see that it's okay to not have everything figured out and put behind us so neatly. You're a wonderful parent who has made great sacrifices to ensure your little ones will never go through what we're going through now. Good on you.
@mentalclarity And thank YOU for sharing many of your own insights with me via PM/email when I first joined. I can only imagine how much more you've gained emotionally and intellectually post graduation now. Keep going strong :).
Their crazy cult videos broadcasted at the conventions.
I literally woke up DURING the Remain Loyal convention due to the insane bunker videos, and the grotesquely warm reception received by the shunning video.
I sat there numbly, like:

@humbled Thanks for noticing, Maeve :). I've just fired up my PC now so I can try and engage a little more on here. Time to bounce right out of that den.
yesterday, i had a conversation with my neighbor during which i explained the greatest reason why i wanted to raise my kids out of the jws: the fear (which translate to hate) jws have for everyone showing no interest in becoming part of their group.
in order for him to quickly relate to what i meant i asked him to imagine, for a moment, he was the biggest racist he has ever known, forced to live in a black neighborhood.
how would you feel?
Me as I kept reading through your post:
Spectacular analogy, @StephaneLaliberte. Hope you don't mind if I use that one myself when explaining Watchtower's brand of xenophobia to regular folks.

@dubstepped Wow - having my words come to life on a platform other than print media is a whole new experience. I wouldn't have wanted anyone else to execute this except you, Mike. This is so surreal. Thanks for being my sole mouthpiece on earth today, you faithful and indiscreet YouTuber, you.
@caves I'm so happy this resonated with you. Your rapid growth since joining this forum has been startling and inspiring. I know haven't been very active the last week thanks to my own cult heartaches plaguing me, but please know I see you. You are a strong man for giving advice and support to others while juggling your own pain. There will be lags up ahead (hello - I'm experiencing one now), but that's what we're all here for when this kind of thing happens. Here's to your continuous progress out of Watchtower's gaseous FOG.
@stuckinarut2 I will always feel humbled and indebted to the kindness, the realness and the trueness of yours and @Unstuck's friendship. It's such an honor to be included in the Stuck circle of trust.
just listened to this delightful young irish lass and just thought i'd share.
a pleasure to listen to her.
well spoken and presents a good argument.. https://youtu.be/qitwc2qumgs.
@amiable atheist Lol, yes I'm sincere and passionate. Am I camera-worthy like Anoni Mowse? That's another story :P.
Thank you for the compliment, though. Been going through some cult depression/heartache over the last week and just happened to pop onto the forum to see such a kind pick-me-up from you. Appreciate it.
maybe someone can post this disturbing video.
techoak lim 27 year old throwing and slinging his 18 month old son outside a riverside california home led to the arrest of the boy's father.
warning it is disturbing..
Urgh, I just looked that up and watched it. I am shaking right now. Guy's out on bail? On behalf of the 18 month old victim: WHY?!
4 years ago during the circuit overseers visit he asked a rather innapropriate question from the platform.
i say it's innapropriate because i think it's wrong to tell happy married couples how to love each other and much more wrong it is to tell them they should love their children less.. he said: "mothers, who should you love more your children or your husband?
" i think most mothers will quickly say you should love your children more.
Too often I've seen and heard of cases where the mother's love for her spouse exceeded her children to the extent of standing by him as he physically abused them. These children did not grow up to be very happy. Not only did they not respect their mother's decision, but they also held her equally accountable for their physical and emotional scars.
can anyone remember or point me to a quote in either the watchtower or awake where they spoke adversely about some of the violent scenes in the original blade runner film.
.
thanks.
@AverageJoe1 Amazing references! I'm sure there was an article implicitly warning against the dangers of Edward Scissorhands back in the 90s... can't remember which magazine, though.
