How Scientology is winning the war against Wikipedia

A few years back there was a lot of jubilation among anticult critics when Wikipedia banned IP ranges associated with the Church of Scientology. At the time, the cult correctly argued that the Wikipedia articles about it were biased against them to the extreme and used this as justification for their actions. The anticult editors, for their part, justified their heavy bias against Scientology based on the cult’s past and current abuses, most of which get pretty short shrift, even in these post-Anonymous (2008) times. A lot of people on both sides were permanently banned.

Since then, Wikipedia is still one of the top websites in the world, but editorship has dropped off dramatically, leaving barely a handful of people editing articles on Scientology. Articles that get edited the most often are throwaway crap like celebutard gossip articles, Pokemon, Power Rangers, shit that we don’t give a rats ass about. A lot of people think Scientology lost the war, but they’re wrong. The cult was just biding its time and it’s learned to be very patient. Read articles about Scientology there. First, most of them aren’t even complete. Lots and lots of missing data. The article on the Sea Org is actually not too bad and one of the few we’ve read that actually sticks to the facts. None of the rest even come close to being that detailed in an accurate fashion. Second, the overreliance on tabloid sources has allowed those operating on behalf of or sympathetic to the cult to legitimately remove huge chunks of paragraphs and gut articles of any useful info. With over a dozen critical books on Scientology from credible non-tabloid sources like Russell Miller, Janet Reitman, Hugh Urban, and Lawrence Wright, really no excuse to use tabloid sources.

But even more insidiously, Scientologists like Brook Zimmatore and Fraser Kee Scott routinely use Wikipedia to promote their pet projects and clients, including Grant Cardone, Mila Furstova (recently commissioned to do packaging for Coldplay; she’s one of Scott’s Album Artists stable), Christy Lee Rogers (also part of Scott’s Album Artists stable), Jim Meskimen, Marion Ross, Kerri Kasem, Gottfried Helnwein (the biggest cult whale to continue denying being a Scientologist and paying huge sums to keep his online rep, including his Wikipedia article, free of almost all cult references), and many others. If we had time we’d post a nice long list of links demonstrating all of this, but we don’t; someday soon we’ll get to it, but it’s not a priority.

There are also a lot of people on Wikipedia, fans of bands like the Backstreet Boys, Banksy, Shepard Fairey and Coldplay (none of these are Scientologists, but work closely with high level Scientologists and help, knowingly or not, funnel massive amounts of cash into IAS slush fund coffers) who inadvertently help keep cult references off those articles or allow those article to be used to indirectly promote the cult. Scott does this routinely himself from an “anonymous” IP address (he has no life and still lives with his mum) by slyly spamming articles with Album Artists press releases, which are not only shameless self-promotion but a violation of Wikipedia policy. But you’ll see him and others like him get away with this shit. Album Artists, by the way, is a big source of income in the UK for the cult, and also sponsors at least 2 or 3 “charity” events a year, usually legit charities that get snookered into unknowingly raising money for the cult, most notoriously with past event “hosts” like Tamara Ecclestone and Lindsay Lohan.

The saying goes, “All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing”. When it comes to manipulating and subverting Wikipedia to its own end, Scientology is winning. Shouldn’t be that way, because all you need are a few people, like the kind who flag cult posts on Craigslist, to keep watch over cult articles and cult-related articles and purge them of self-published sources stemming from the cult and its shamelessly self-promotional members (who are too ashamed to have the dread word “Scientology” on their articles, even though asshats like Meskimen flaunt their cult membership for all the world to see. Just not on Wikipedia)

When the going gets tough, Scientology gets rough

Laura Prepon vs Elisabeth Moss: who is the more brainwashed?

Moss: quietly takes alprazolam (with C/S knowledge), has been considered a suicide risk by the cult, has voiced disapproval and even threatened to leave the cult in the past, is very stubborn and almost impossible to get into session these days, once called L Ron Hubbard “Mr Fat Shit” when younger for which she paid dearly at the violent hands of her father, has an Ethics folder the size of Texas, hates showing up to cult events and goes out of her away to avoid cult happenings like the plague

Prepon: has a mostly clean Ethics record, is very obedient to cult demands, is not stubborn at all, sincerely loves showing up at cult events and goes out of her way to demonstrate her willingness to perform for cult showcases, is dedicated enough of a Scientologist that she was willing to risk her friendship with Masterson when he started dating Bijou Philips, has reported Bijou dozens of times (BP is high up on the list of celebutards and wannabe celebutards who have a filthy, rotten Ethics record – not that she gives a fuck, but still remains loyal to the group), has cried in session regarding her love and gratitude to COB and LRH

Elisabeth Moss – a degree or two away from Johnny Lewis? A choice of a lifetime. To die, or to stay alive.

Your average Scientologist is like a ticking time bomb. Don’t let their happy, carefree outward appearance and expressions fool you — no one is that happy in Scientology and if misery loves company, then the cult is one giant orgy of seething self-loathing and hatred.

Johnny Lewis made a smart move and abandoned the cult, but he did so too little, too late. Because you see, Scientology implants itself deep inside of you, like a virus, not just in your mind, but all throughout you. Getting rid of this fucking thing is a nightmare. You’re desperate to shake this disease off, but no matter what you do, it keeps eating away at you like the Bubonic Plague.

It ate away at Lewis until he found himself knee deep in drink and drugs. Why anyone found his cycle of self-destruction to be a shock is beyond me. It was inevitable.

But on his way out, Lewis killed his landlady. And a cat. I don’t know about the landlady, but the fucking cat definitely didn’t deserve its fate. What the fuck that cat ever did to you, Johnny? You beat that poor fuck into a bloody pulp until almost nothing was left except a flayed carcass of an animal. Why?

Elisabeth Moss’s folder reads a lot like Johnny Lewis’s. A lot of these folders do, of these young, bright but emotionally train wrecked artists pushed to the verge of full on PTS Type III and its sick in the head remedy, Introspection Rundown. So dangerous is the Introspection Rundown that it is rarely, if ever, prescribed, and believe it or not, the C/S will these days, recommend a visit to a less “suppressive” type of psych that doesn’t dose out meds, but “homeopathic” alternatives instead. You ask me, any kind of homeopathy is bullshit. If you suffer from cancer, mental illness, HIV/AIDS, whatever and you seek homeopathic or naturopathic “treatments” as an “alternative” to legit medical oncology, you are a fucking loser and moron who deserves their fate. I don’t even give a flying fuck if you’re a big shot celeb, a former Scilon turned critic, or Jesus Christ.

This is the real world, fuckers. We all know better.

Don’t let Elisabeth Moss’s faux cheer fool you — the woman is on the verge. Not as bad as Lewis was, but if she went Type III on some poor bastard near her, I’d just shake my head quietly, because I’d have expected that.

We’re calling you out, Moss. You made the right choice awhile back avoiding your cult handlers, including your father and brother, but now you’re making the same old mistakes you used to make years ago, letting them manipulate and twist your mind. You know you’ve got problems. You almost got yourself got yourself C/Sed for an Introspection Rundown until The Man Upstairs intervened and sent that idiot C/S back to the bilges for much needed corrections.

You have an opportunity now before it’s too late and you lose yourself and hurt yourself and possibly others. Tell the world the truth about your father and his abuses against you and your brother.

You may be shunned and possibly terrorized by the cult, but it will all last but mere moments in time and you will be alive. The Auditors Code will not help you. The Auditors Code will not save you. David Miscavige cannot protect you. No one can do anything for you except you.

Either way, we are going to leak the raw truth. We’re just giving you a heads up.

There is help outside the Scientology terror bubble.

There is an exit.

Seeking a new publisher… or a contact with the original one

Only one person had the contact info and verification data for the publisher (who will remain unnamed for now) and that person is now somewhere in South Africa keeping their mouth shut.

We still have the data. We are accumulating more. The recent organising of anti-cult conference “Flagdown” has created several new and highly lucrative opportunities for us as the cult is hunkering down and going on the defensive at Flag. Its internal security measures are failing and we are exploiting the holes to amass the raw content of preclear folders that we avoided doing so before.

Most of the old gang were opposed to even touching preclear. They are gone and we of the new order have no such scruples. Our only morality is that of pursuit of the legal prosecution and ultimate banning of Scientology in the Free World.

But… the original plan needs to be maintained. We need a publisher willing to publish what we have, online or in print or both, no matter the legal ramifications. We need a publisher willing to publish real names, real incidents, real perversions, real life.

The agent with the original publisher can contact us via direct message through our new Twitter with the same “secret” passphrase that was given to them, if they wish to continue to honour that agreement.

Others can send us their offers via the same Twitter.

The cult’s criminal overlords believe we are “John P” — this is false. We have no idea who that is.

The cult believes we are a fraud perpetrated by its external enemies — this is also false.

Who is really behind this? One of the wealthiest, most fanatically loyal, and most internally influential Scientologists of all time. David Miscavige forced this individual to divide their family into hopeless dysfunctionality: a tawdry, but predictable tale of drug abuse, sickness and suicide.

The others have lost faith. But we are still here.

When you find out who we really are, Davey, you will never cease to soil yourself each moment of each and every day, a filthy reminder of what you have done and what your future will be.

We have stayed silent. We have remained patient. We have regrouped.

To all Scientologists, current and former, prepare to have all your innermost secrets spilled for the whole wide world to see. No one will be spared. Count your blessings if we don’t ever mention your name.

Miscavige, we’re coming to get you.
