Critical Thinking on Cults & AntiCults
AntiCults exist for every Cult.
An out-group of people who were former members of any religion, or minority religion, have always existed to protest their former religious or spiritual belief.
They have simply come to realize a loss of faith.
That loss of faith is colossally disorienting. All people use their ideology or belief system to make sense of the world. So when your sense-making system collapses on you, you feel a certain sense of fuckness for a short, or a long, while.
AntiCults exist where people take up the AntiCult Ideology, mostly promulgated by Lifton and Hassan.
Influenced by anticultism, they deny their own choices made to get involved in their own previous religious pursuit and turn all those personal decisions into things they were ‘brainwashed’ to believe against their will and consent.
AntiCults must be critically examined, and questioned, as closely as Cults.
Aaron Smith Levin interviewed Ex-Scientologist Nick Lister about his experiences growing up in Scientology in the Clearwater area. That video was taken down. The reasons appear to have been covered up by the Aftermath Foundation.

Chief John Poe’s video views on his channel are fairly low – except when he has Karen de la Carriere and Jeffrey Augustine on – then his views SKYROCKET!
Is poor Mike Rinder just a victim of Scientology Fair Game as his promo video portrays him? No. This is Scientology revisionist history.
Flag Ethics Officer Matteo Rosetti interviewed Kyle Brennan’s father, Tom Brennan. Then reported the results of his interview to Debbie Cook. Then disappeared.
Relentless Scientology Critic & Courageous AntiCult Researcher “Rotting Jewels”, who posts as DanaDooDah on Twitter, Has an “aggressive form of cancer” that is “spreading throughout her body”.
Google these names: Kyle Brennan, Ken Ogger, Flo Barnett. Ask yourself why, to this day, Leah Remini has never mentioned them.
“And, of course, note the President CC Int, when she hears this, calls OSA. This is standard practice in Scientology.” – Mike Rinder
Corey Andrews reveals Karen de la Carriere’s covert operation to silence legendary Scientology critic Cathy Schenkelberg.
Mike Rinder was head of the OSA, reporting directly to Miscavige. The evidence in the Danny Masterson rape trial shows his victims came forward to Scientology. Why hasn’t Mike talked?

When will Scientology and the Aftermath have an episode on the Death of Kyle Brennan? The series stayed away from the most important Scientology stories, like Mike Rinder’s OSA involvement in the cover-up of the Danny Masterson rape cases.

Running a blog every day, 3 seasons of a TV show and a podcast, Mike Rinder has never revealed anything to put Miscavige, or any Officer of Scientology, into criminal jeopardy. Why?
As a critic of Scientology for over 20yrs, one of the most consistent things I’ve seen is Mike Rinder, and others, lying about what he did in Scientology.
The anti-cult movement provides the principle ideology almost all Ex-cult members are given to adopt after they leave their minority religions. The foundation of that anti-cult ideology is the belief in “brainwashing”. But does “brainwashing” really exist? Or is it just an excuse?
Why did Rinder Lie to Corey About Scientology’s Intelligence Technology? To Make it Appear No Old Guard Critics Ever Revealed Anything Until They Came Along?

Dr. Hassan broke and went back to his family’s religious tradition – Judaism. Why is his praise of his captors not a case of Stockholm Syndrome?
