The things they do now are way more crazy than when I left some years ago. They’re a very dangerous organization. They thoroughly manipulate you. Not to mention that they’re bleeding money from legal problems mostly related to systemic defence and concealment of a whole lot rape, mostly children.
If anyone reading this is considering joining the JWs first look into these allegations. It’s a very real and serious problem.
Is the sign on fire too? Lol
As a wheelchair user I absolutely hate when people do this! I ended up forced to go around the back of the car which is way less safe.
Moving tabs is the hardest part of switching browsers!
Sync for lemmy let’s you do this.
I’ve been on quite a few. But I mostly was on lemmy.world but their reliability is low. So I switched to Lemmy.ca who federated with basically everyone. Unlike World. I was on .ml for a while too but left for some reason. I’m also on Beehaw, I like it over there but it’ll never be my home instance mostly because you can’t create communities and they don’t federate with most of the ones I like. Being on Lemmy.ca allows me to interact with World and Beehaw from one account which is really nice. They also have really high up time!
I couldn’t stress enough that you absolutely should not! Consider looking on YouTube as well.
Their favorite tactic is probably love bombing. We were thoroughly instructed on how to make potential new members feel “welcomed” there are literally mandatory “mid-week” meetings that they used to call the school. It is, literally a school to teach you how to manipulate people into joining. They literally teach you how much of the “truth” they should reveal to new recruits without scaring them off. I guess people are scared off when they know the “truth” which is basically an endless web of lies to try and validate and justify the endless harm they cause people. Mostly by manipulation and “disfellowshipment.” They won’t let you get higher education except when they need it themselves (they paid for some people to go to school and become lawyers to defend them.) And you can’t marry anyone who’s not baptized through their organization. Things like this should really rase red flags for people.
