										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was looking for a dictionary definition for “Fair Game,” which I recalled partially. I knew I’d quoted this definition in one post or another. So I did a search: “Fair Game pursuit and attack Gerry Armstrong.” The first search result, below, was from “AI,” who everybody knows by their initials. Looks like a lakh of first results are now AI-think.</p>
<p>“Fair Game,” as the term is used in the Scientologists’ war on wogs, particularly on the Suppressive Person” class, is: “a legitimate target for pursuit and attack.”</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>AI Overview</strong></p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong, a former football player, and the &#8220;Fair Game&#8221; policy in Scientology, a controversial religion, are related. Gerry Armstrong, a former football player, has been the subject of fair game attacks by the Church of Scientology. The Church of Scientology&#8217;s &#8220;Fair Game&#8221; policy, which involves targeting individuals perceived as enemies, has been the subject of numerous legal battles and accusations.</p>
<p><strong>Fair Game Policy:</strong></p>
<p>The &#8220;Fair Game&#8221; policy, an internal policy of the Church of Scientology, allows for the targeting and harassment of individuals deemed &#8220;Suppressive Persons&#8221; or enemies. This policy has been criticized for violating civil rights and causing distress to individuals.</p>
<p><strong>Gerry Armstrong and Fair Game:</strong></p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong, a former football player, was once a member of the Church of Scientology. He later left the Church, which led to him being declared an enemy and subjected to fair game attacks. He has been the target of lawsuits and harassment, which he has described as a result of the &#8220;Fair Game&#8221; policy. Armstrong has also publicly criticized Scientology&#8217;s practices.</p>
<p>In essence, Gerry Armstrong&#8217;s experience highlights the controversy surrounding the &#8220;Fair Game&#8221; policy and its potential for harm to individuals who oppose the Church of Scientology</p></blockquote>
<p>Has AI unearthed a most mind-blowing coincidence or what! The former footballer, just like me, was once a member of the Church of Scientology, left the cult, was declared an enemy, and fair gamed. Just like me, he has been sued and harassed. And just like me, he has publicly criticized Scientology&#8217;s practices.  AI says that the former footballer’s experience highlights the controversy surrounding the &#8220;Fair Game&#8221; policy and its potential for harm to individuals who oppose the Church of Scientology. I warn everyone, wog or not, that what has happened to me, an average, common humanoid, could happen to anyone. And this former footballer’s name is Gerry Armstrong, just like me!</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For the Love of God</p>
<p>This is an excerpt from my unpublished book <em>As God Is My Client</em>, which I wrote in response to the Miscavigeites and their collaborators’ worldwide dissemination of a black propaganda piece accusing me of provoking and mongering the Ukraine-NATO-EU-US-Russia conflict. I earlier published another excerpt from the book in this article: <a href="https://gerryarmstrong.ca/the-gerry-armstrong-book-a-murder-mystery/">https://gerryarmstrong.ca/the-gerry-armstrong-book-a-murder-mystery/</a></p>
<blockquote><p>I have been a “declared SP” and Fair Game for forty-one years. Fair Game is the <em>application</em> of Hubbard and the Scientologists’ detestable “Suppressive Person” doctrine. I have written and spoken extensively about it, and Caroline and I built and maintain a web site for the Suppressive Person Defense League to expose and oppose the doctrine and defend the SP class. <a href="http://suppressiveperson.org/">http://suppressiveperson.org/</a></p>
<p>In the New Testament paradigm, SPs are the gospel-truth-speaking Christians, the individuals who are conscious, in some measure, of being God’s children, and seeking His Kingdom. The Miscavigeite Scientologists, collaborating academics like Introvigne, publications like <em>The European Times</em>, entities like EFFB and its “Federation of Associations,” and writers like Bornstein are the woeful crowd of Priests, Pharisees, Sadducees, scribes and lawyers. The US Administration and its relevant agencies like the [US Commission on International Religious Freedom], DOJ, FBI, CIA, etc. are the Romans. As a nation, the US went way over to the dark side, and has not come back, when its federal agencies bargained to embrace and reward the Miscavigeites and forsake their victims.</p>
<p>As well as representing the people classed as Suppressive Persons, who are a specific set of God’s children, I also represent Him, our Creator or Father. There is nothing exceptional in me or about me that would make anyone think I represented God. The clothes don’t make the rep, and neither does the coif or the eloquence. I’m just about as average, common too, as I could be without trying much harder. I honestly did not plan any of this. Superironically, I was L. Ron Hubbard’s representative at one time.</p>
<p>I have represented God for quite a number of years in the Scientology conflict. There is also nothing exceptional or special in this relationship. As it is said, He is no respecter of persons. Obviously, as I’m a representative example, of no human power, anyone can represent Him. At the same time, as I’m also an example, it is a calling, and He called it. The word is He chooses His reps, and then His reps choose Him. One day, I simply found myself with that hat. If, however, folks sensed they did not represent Him now, and they really wanted to, I have faith that they would not have to wait to hear the call but could just <em>ask</em> for the task.</p>
<p>It is appropriate for me to also disclose that I learned on the job that He does not need me to do whatever I was doing. This is not because I’m dreadful at it, which I know I am; but He doesn’t even need the best of representations or representatives. He reaches everyone directly, and vice versa. Nevertheless, here we are, unneeded reps of an unneeding God doing our best at what doesn’t need to be done. He loves us, and uses us, and as reps we are conscious of that. But we cannot fail or let Him down on the job, nor take any credit for successes, because He produces them, and doesn’t need us.</p>
<p>It is also not true that we need Him. We <em>have </em>Him, whether we know it or not; and because we have Him, we can’t need Him. And vice versa. Realizing we have Him is different from needing Him. If we are not conscious of having Him, a sense of needing could help. In all my stand against Scientology evils, as with anything else worthwhile it appeared I ever did or might do, I could and can do nothing. He did it. This conclusion comports with an arithmetic proof of Him that I’d say He gave me several years ago. <a href="https://gerryarmstrong.ca/god-additionally/">https://gerryarmstrong.ca/god-additionally/</a></p>
<p>For me, being or becoming God’s representative seemed the seamless result of absorbing the Miscavigeite Scientologists’ extreme judicial and extra-judicial Fair Game campaign to silence me about my religious/spiritual/real experiences, knowledge and beliefs. The war mantra for treating or handling the people who tell the simple truth the Miscavigeites obviously do not easily experience is “Silence or Destroy!” If I would not be silenced, by threat, fraud, money, court orders, financial ruin, black propaganda, or physical assault, I was to be destroyed. Who or what would seek to silence God’s representative? Who or what would destroy God’s rep if he would not be silenced?</p>
<p>For this response to <em>The </em><em>European Times</em>/Bornstein/[Anti-Anti-Cultists]’ explosive war-blame black PR, the Miscavigeites say I must pay a penalty of fifty thousand dollars, plus be fined, plus be hunted down, plus be imprisoned. They have obtained a series of California State Court orders that mete out these obscene punishments. The Miscavigeites claim, moreover, that the fifty thousand per <em>utterance</em> is also per <em>recipient</em> of each utterance. I would welcome this response being received and read by millions.</p>
<p>The Miscavigeites’ avarice and their sadism to silence or destroy me truly are unconscionable. Unconscionability is expected of them, of course. Even more unconscionable, however, US courts, the US Department of Justice, Treasury, the State Department, etc., from whom unconscionability is <em>not</em> expected, have pretended to ignore the Scientology v. Armstrong cases, prostrate themselves and make unwise, unlawful, irreligious decisions that benefit the unconscionable Miscavigeites and further victimize their already victimized victims.</p>
<p>As I mentioned, the [Anti-Anti-Cultists] have published <em>The </em><em>European Times</em>/Bornstein article in thirty-nine languages that I know of. <em>The E</em><em>uropean Times</em> has permitted or encouraged other affiliates and collaborating AAC persons and entities to repost the article. The USCIRF featured links to the English article on its PR pages. My response should reach at least all the people who <em>might</em> have read this article in each of those languages, with a court-ordered monetary value of fifty thousand US dollars “a pop,” as the Miscavigeites’ “Corporate Secretary” <em>testified</em> in one of their cases against me.</p>
<p>Who or what would be so petrified of an ordinary man and view his words as so precious and powerful they would go to such extremes to silence him? Who or what would seek to imprison God’s representative for telling the truth about his religion-related experiences, knowledge or beliefs that is monetarily so galactically valuable? Who or what would defend and promote as religious freedom such a diabolical conspiracy to imprison and ruin such a someone?</p>
<p>Before I said or realized anything about representing God, perhaps twenty years ago, I observed that, theologically-speaking, I was, at least part of the time, a “Prophet to Scientologists” (“PtS”). What that meant to me was speaking the truth as God would have me speak it, in the Scientology milieu, to the Scientologists, where it mattered. Prophets speak the truth. Because of its materiality in Scientology-related issues in human courts of justice, I have testified in a number of legal proceedings about this fact of my life.</p>
<p>God’s Old Testament prophets condemned injustice and called the people and rulers to <em>do justice</em> as He commanded. Abusing the law and using it to harass, and to silence or destroy, the Miscavigeites have sought, obtained, and benefited from a multitude of injustices. Their overarching scriptural directive for their Fair Game in the judicial system is from Hubbard in 1955:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #993366;">The law can be used very easily to harass, and enough harassment on somebody who is simply on the thin edge anyway, well knowing that he is not authorized, will generally be sufficient to cause his professional decease. If possible, of course, ruin him utterly.</span></p>
<p>The Scientologists &#8212; first the Hubbardites, and now the Miscavigeites &#8212; have perpetrated judicial injustices against the SP class, and me personally, for decades. The Scientologists indeed use the law to harass, to ruin, and to rob their victims of justice. It is historically already told that God would send a prophet or prophets to speak up and tell the truth in such injustice and devilry perpetrated by religionists and “religious freedom defenders,” and abetted by lawyers, the officers of every nation’s courts.</p>
<p>It is completely understandable that God is represented in justice, in its principle and virtue, in mankind’s justice systems, and in justice and injustice done to His children. It is also understood, even by atheists or satanists, that He is represented in the realm of religion, and in religious scriptures, systems, entities, practices, ecclesiasts, and congregants. His representation in the Scientologists’ war is obvious because it is their war on Him. The Scientologists couch their war as on His children, the world’s wogs, and specifically on the SP class who speak up about Scientology evils, but the war truly is on Him.</p>
<p>“Prophet, “prophetess,” “prophet’s” and “prophets” appear about five hundred times in the King James Version of the Bible, which I customarily work from. None of these words are defined in <em>Black’s Law Dictionary Fifth Edition,</em> which I also work from. There is a whole page in <em>Black’s</em> for “prophet’s” homophone, “profit,” which makes sense. Somewhat oddly, the words “represent,” “representation,” or “representative,” are not in the KJV. In <em>Black’s</em> their definitions have two pages. “Lawyer” or “lawyers” appear seven times in the Bible, all in the New Testament, and all I think unfavorably. And nary an “attorney.”</p>
<p>It became apparent to me that in the legal arena, where my utterances and actions in relation to the Scientologists are at issue, and fetch fifty grand a pop, the term or title “prophet” is not defined, and courts appear to not understand what it means. Judges, lawyers, and everyone else in every legal case with even way-below-average intelligence, however, understand “representative.” God is given at least lip service in the US Declaration of Independence, in state constitutions, and in courts, and He even is specifically held responsible for all the disasters humans ourselves supposedly do not cause: “Acts of God.” For relevant purposes, certainly in courts of justice, or in Congress, etc., I represent Him.</p>
<p>So, at one point, a bit ago, I became conscious of representing Him in the Scientologists’ war on me, and on the SP class. Hyperironically, the Miscavigeites’ biblically-proportioned legal and extralegal actions to silence or destroy me, personally and archetypally, made His representation relevant, and real. The Bible teaches that humans have a long history of persecuting, indeed slaying, their prophets.</p>
<p>The Miscavigeites and their collaborators naturally mock my representing God, or being PtS. They black PR me as “a fruitcake” or “psychotic,” or a beast “devoid of spiritual qualities,” whose state of mind is “one sordid, sado-masochistic nightmare.” That is the proverbial lot of SPs and prophets. The Miscavigeites can count on countless collaborators because of the clear and present covert and overt paroxysm of misotheism on planet earth. The Scientologists pour great energy and a mountain of money into keeping this paroxysm of misotheism working.</p>
<p>God’s representation inside Scientology is infinitely logical because of Hubbard’s demoniac postulate and actions to put his organization, his philosophy, his religion, his “tech,” his followers, himself, and all their successes and “wins” <em>beyond</em> God. Throughout his years developing and running Scientology, Hubbard considered himself the spirit of Lucifer, the being credited by occultists for bringing enlightenment and freedom to man, despite God’s desire, the Luciferians teach, to keep everyone ignorant and enslaved to Himself. The Godless religion Hubbard mocked up and made others mock up is a proprietary brand of Satanic Luciferianism. <a href="https://gerryarmstrong.ca/satanic-luciferianism-by-any-other-name/">https://gerryarmstrong.ca/satanic-luciferianism-by-any-other-name/</a></p>
<p>Scientology can easily be seen as a money-making, power-seeking system to keep people from seeking, experiencing and loving God. He, one would think, would have His reps all over such an abomination. We, of course, might be ignored, or silenced, or destroyed, but He cannot be removed.</p>
<p>Also recently, it dawned on me that I didn’t or couldn’t represent God in just the Scientologists’ war but actually represented Him in all sorts of other issues, circumstances and relationships. I represented Him in virtually everything I did, like picking up trash, or in whatever I might say, like “Good morning” to Mrs. Buttles. I represent Him in this response to the Anti-Anti-Cultists. I represent Him to the entire US Government, to US citizens, to Canadian citizens, to Russian citizens, to Ukrainian citizens, to the west, to the east, to the free, to the unfree, to the thirty-nine language flavors.</p>
<p>Quite obviously, representing God is not directly related to how inept or ept I might be at my holy task or tasks, or how poorly or well I communicated. It is wholly understandable that, having all, He would have an available representative with the pertinent esoteric experience and knowledge appear to the Miscavigeite Scientologists for Him. It also makes sense that He would have a rep appear to the other AACists who defend the victimizing of His children, as “religious freedom” or “religious liberty,” even if those hypocrites doing such defending are from the United States of America power and principality.</p></blockquote>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>By email and posted at:   <a href="https://gerryarmstrong.ca/compliance-report-to-marisa-sigmond/">https://gerryarmstrong.ca/compliance-report-to-marisa-sigmond/</a></p>
<p>Dear Marisa:</p>
<p>Here is a <a href="https://gerryarmstrong.ca/partial-transcript-of-marisa-sigmond-video-july13-2024/">transcript</a> of the section relating to me from your July 13, 2024 video, “<a href="https://youtu.be/IO_eyfov0Bw?si=wn93kvOYQGEXNCwP">Listen Up Gerry Armstrong!!!</a>” Thanks for your Tone-40 Admin TR. I did indeed listen up. You’re mainly interested in my relationship with Alanzo, Allen Stanfield; or you’re interested, rather, in its termination. But I’ll first clarify some other things.</p>
<p>I was not <em>the</em> original, or <em>an</em> original, anti-scientology activist. I was not the original person to pretty much crush boundaries within the cult, whatever they might be, or to do whatever else I ended up doing. And I wasn’t the original person to go public with the realization that Hubbard was a giant lying fraud.</p>
<p>People had been communicating critically about Hubbard and Scientology, singing songs and carrying signs for decades before I came along. There was, and is, in certain matters, a particular value for my experiences and knowledge, and for my authentication of relevant Hubbard and Scientology policies, practices, actions and documents, because it all corroborated some of the earlier writers, victims and activists’ experiences and knowledge, for which they were being Fair Gamed.</p>
<p>I first spoke up about my experiences and knowledge in the fall of 1981; that is, my experiences and knowledge that Hubbard and his enforcers did <em>not </em>want spoken up about. Standardly, the Scientology muscle – RTC, the PIs, the lawyers, OSA, all their collaborators, everyone under David Miscavige &#8212; attack up-speaking relevant truth-tellers, and seek to silence and destroy us. A material fact underlying this criminal compulsion to silence and destroy the persons speaking up and telling the relevant truth, is that the Scientologists, et al. have nothing to offer.</p>
<p>In my experience and knowledge, they &#8212; RTC, the PIs, the lawyers, OSA, all their collaborators, everyone under David Miscavige – have never offered anything to confute, counter, or even address the relevant truth that up-speakers have spoken. Up-speaking truthtellers comprise the class of wogs the Scientologists dub “Suppressive Persons” (“SPs”) and target as “Enemies.” We are treated or handled as “Fair Game.”</p>
<p>For forty-two years and change the Hubbardite and Miscavigeite Scientologists have postulated and acted against me as a major SP, high priority for silencing and destroying. Postulate” is Hubbard’s scriptural word he defined as “self-created truth.” They “create” as truth a hateful image of me, and create years of hating my image. Their postulated goal is to silence and destroy me. Their attitude and actions to achieve this postulated and unlawful goal is known as “Fair Game.” I have been neither silenced nor destroyed, so have been an activist as long as I’ve been speaking up.</p>
<p>Hubbard “scripture” equates the condition, motivation, actions of “Suppressive Persons” with wog mental science’s “antisocial personalities,” or “sociopaths.” The biggest SPs, whom the Miscavigeites spend boxcars of beans to silence and destroy are, for the most part, linked by their speaking up about their experiences and knowledge of what the Miscavigeites don’t want spoken up about. Scientologists derive “great gain,” “power,,” by their hypocrisy. And their collaborators, the phallanx of lawyers, PIs, police, government officials, and real-life sociopaths, gain a suitcase of spondulicks and the protection and laughs of devilhood.</p>
<p>You mention that I live in Canada not because I want to. And you mention that legally I have to stay in Canada. In the sense that I don’t want to live in any other country more than I want to live in Canada, I can honestly say that I live in Canada because I want to.</p>
<p>I am Canadian, so living here is natural. The fact of my being here for twenty-seven years following my return to Canada, with the exceptions of a thankfully and quickly aborted effort to live and litigate in Nevada, and twenty or so months in Germany, also supports the conclusion that I <em>wanted</em> to live here. My time with Caroline in Germany was to escape and minimize Fair Game against us in Canada and build our first web sites. This made it possible to speak up, and to undertake my defense in the Miscavige cult’s litigation. My Answer from Germany to the cult’s pending complaint:  <a href="http://www.gerryarmstrong.org/50k/legal/a7/3394.php">http://www.gerryarmstrong.org/50k/legal/a7/3394.php</a></p>
<p>In most cases or countries, where I domiciled for a bit in my adult life, I wanted to live. I always tried to make the best of it.  Also in most cases, if my only other option is to <em>not</em> want to live where I’m living, I think that I’d rather want to. Basically, I’m pretty sure that, so far at least, wherever I am I’m supposed to be. I am additionally apparently seamlessly connected to where I will be. These conditions are part of a simple life’s purposefulness.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s true that for a time after I left California and returned to Canada, I attempted, in compliance with the US’s rules, to maintain and not lose my US alien resident status. Then it became obvious that I could not, for material world real reasons, return to the US to live. Plus, I was wanted in Canada, not as in the US for the punishment ordered against me, but for the help I could give here. Actions the at-cause Scientologists took that drove me to leave my home in California, where I also had been where I had been supposed to be, and made me to lose my very valuable residency status, however, were torts and crimes, and are ongoing.</p>
<p>It is also true that I did return to California on a couple of occasions to attend a silly trial and then oral argument in a rigged appeal in the Armstrong VII case. This was a lawsuit the Miscavigeite Scientologists filed in their campaign to silence and destroy me, seeking ten million dollars plus for my mentions of my Scientology-related experiences or knowledge. Time, however, has unwound as it does, and for many years I have not entertained any desire to go back to the US to live. Despite that absence of any desire to live there, as a citizen of the Free World I am a known opponent of the SP doctrine-supporting dictatorship and dictator running the Free World where I live in one of its currently compliant countries, Canada. Powerocracies are living the lie.</p>
<p>There are still jail sentences, fines and obscene money judgments against me in the US, all of which violate the US’s laws and Constitution, and human rights charters virtually everywhere. The US Intelligence Community, of course, is in cahoots with the Miscavigeite Scientologists. There has been no sign of a change of mind or heart from any relevant US Government official, or even from any irrelevant one. I’ve suggested that someone with a conscience in the Federal Government officially invite me to DC to testify, and I’m holding out for that solemn occasion. I’m not, however, holding my breath.</p>
<p>I don’t legally, or even illegally, <em>have</em> to stay in Canada, at least as far as I know. I haven’t left the country, or tried to, for almost seven years. I also recognize that since then some security bureaucrat could have put me on a no-fly-list, or done something dastardly to detain, derail or destroy me.</p>
<p>Back when I was living in California and the cult had just obtained IRS tax exemption, someone fingered me as a hot prospect, or hot suspect, for the Unabomber’s crimes. In 2020, the cult’s in-house lawyer Kendrick Moxon made an in-court threat to get me extradited from Canada. Right now, ever since the start of the Ukraine war, some Scientologists or Scientology collaborators have been disseminating and maintaining the dangerous lie that I’m a key cause of the conflict. I am sure these people have had me declared falsely an “enemy of Ukraine” and put on the Myrotvorets <em>kill-list</em>. <a href="https://gerryarmstrong.ca/the-gerry-armstrong-book-a-murder-mystery/">https://gerryarmstrong.ca/the-gerry-armstrong-book-a-murder-mystery/</a><br />
The Scientologists or their collaborators have physically assaulted me a bunch of times, and the willingness to hurt me is a cult-wide rule of honor.</p>
<p>There is, therefore, good reason to recognize that, though I might be the walking antithesis of an actual Unabomber, or the peacenik antipode of some actual mad war monger, there are corporally powerful people with connections into tops of government that still want me silenced and destroyed. The key weapon in the Scientologists’ Fair Game arsenal is “black propaganda” or “black PR.” I have not heard a word, however, that I would be prohibited, for any official legal, administrative or national security reason, from leaving Canada. I am living, therefore, with a good faith belief that I can legally, and without “official” obstruction, leave whenever I want.</p>
<p>It is also my belief that there are many countries I could travel to freely and be welcomed in, if I am reasonably called. As I mentioned, I don’t intend to travel to the US until one of the Federal Government branches invites me, but pretty well every other country I feel free to visit. Maybe not Ukraine, where I’m surely hit-listed, but, who knows, they could delist me and invite me too.</p>
<p>It’s fair, I think, to acknowledge that long trips are more difficult and physically challenging for me now than even just seven years ago, and almost all my trips outside Canada since I returned here in 1987 have been long ones. So, I don’t know if I’ll ever leave this place. I can, however, if I believe I’m needed.</p>
<p>You called Alanzo my “sidekick,” and you ask, “Why [am I] teaming up with [him], given [his] track record of publicly stating that he feels that Scientology is an oppressed religious minority group.” “Sidekick,” which has its own Wikipedia page, is “a close companion or colleague who is, or is generally regarded as, subordinate to those whom they accompany.” <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sidekick">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sidekick</a></p>
<p>It&#8217;s funny that you dox Alanzo as my “sidekick,” because three or so years ago Italian Scientology-colluding academic Massimo Introvigne, PhD publicly labeled me a “minor sidekick” of Alexander Leonidovich Dvorkin, PhD, a fairly famous Russian religion scholar and friend of mine.</p>
<p>In March 2021, I gave a short talk “Exceptional Hypocrisy: The US’s International Religious Freedom program” at a Zoom conference in Paris,<br />

and in a subsequent article disparaging the conference and the participants Introvigne wrote:</p>
<blockquote><p>Playing the anti-Western and anti-American card is common in Russia, but what is interesting is Dvorkin’s attempt to sell his toxic merchandise in the West. He came to the conference accompanied by some minor sidekicks, including Gerry Armstrong, an American anti-cult activist who in 2014 <a href="https://pravoslavie.ru/75577.html">wrote to Vladimir Putin</a> calling him a victim of “massive Western campaigns” of “black propaganda,” and asking Russia to intensify its persecution of Scientology.</p></blockquote>
<p>I pushed back a bit in a response I titled “Masterminds, Sidekicks and the Bear, Oh My!”</p>
<blockquote><p>Introvigne does not identify the “toxic merchandise” he says Dvorkin is attempting to sell in the West. Introvigne also does not say how my participating in the conference helps sell this unidentified “toxic merchandise.” Introvigne is using the common black PR technique of shameless innuendo.</p>
<p>I did not accompany Dvorkin to the conference any more than I accompanied any of the other ten or so participants. I doubt that Dvorkin and I got within eight thousand one hundred ninety-some-odd kilometers of each other during the conference.</p>
<p>Introvigne’s clear intent is to trivialize me when he calls me Dvorkin’s “minor sidekick.” I don’t recall anyone previously ever referring to me as someone’s “sidekick,” minor or otherwise, but here it’s not a bad role.  For Introvigne, it’s a black PR failure. The Bible, although my KJV does not contain the word, names a number of venerable sidekicks: Moses had Aaron, David had Jonathan, Paul had Barnabas, and Jesus had a dozen. Now Dr. Dvorkin has Gerry Armstrong.</p>
<p>Introvigne calls me an “American” as if it’s a slur. I’m actually a dyed-in-the-wool Canadian and have been my whole life. It’s true I’m a <em>North</em> American, but have never claimed to be a <em>mere </em>American. I have stated that I am a Canadian in sworn and publicly available declarations and affidavits, and even publicly posted images of my Canadian passports. ((<a href="http://www.gerryarmstrong.org/50grand/writings/historical/passport-1971-01-25-2-3.html">http://www.gerryarmzzgstrong.org/50grand/writings/historical/passport-1971-01-25-2-3.html</a> )) In my 2014 article, which Introvigne links to and lies about, my first words were, “When growing up in Chilliwack, British Columbia.” Further on in the article, referring to the date I published it, I wrote, “It is Thanksgiving Day in Canada.” Introvigne has pretended ignorance of voluminous evidence and then not scored a black PR point.</p></blockquote>
<p>So, I’ve had, as you might imagine, some time to ponder sidekickery &#8212; what it means to <em>be</em> or <em>have</em> a sidekick. And I’ll have to protest, or confess, that Alanzo is not really nor truly my sidekick. I don’t think of him as I might a sidekick, if I had one. I also don’t think he’ll argue with my rejection of sidekickistry as any form or foundation for our actual relationship. Hearing that one isn’t what one isn’t can’t be all that disappointing. In this situation, Alanzo hearing from me that he isn’t my sidekick does not alter what in our real material or extra-material relationship he really is, or we really are.</p>
<p>For the same reasons that Alanzo is not my sidekick I am not his. I accompanied Dr. Dvorkin hundreds of times, indeed stayed at his home in Moscow, and traveled with him many miles by planes, trains, automobiles, busses, kick scooters, и пешком. It might also be said that he accompanied me. Ironically enough, I did not, as Introvigne claimed, however, accompany Dvorkin to the Paris conference. Introvigne made this false claim to bolster his assertion, his postulate that I am, was, or had been Alexander Dvorkin’s sidekick, and, more deplorably, a minor one in a whole stable of major and minor sidekicks. I have never accompanied Alanzo anywhere, however, and he has never accompanied me. So, in truth, certainly, Alanzo is not and never was my sidekick, and vice versa.</p>
<p>Introvigne uses the term as a condemnation, although it is actually neutral. With superheroes, the sidekick shtick could be super honorable, deserving a super commendation. Cf. that infinitely lovable superhero <em>Perfecto</em> and his faithful sidekick <em>Miracle Boy</em>. But being Hitler’s sidekick, if he had had one, is, societally, still, at this point, an irredeemable role, even though it might sell books: <em>I Was Hitler’s Sidekick</em>©.</p>
<p>The Internet reports that “a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villain">villain</a>&#8216;s supporters are normally called <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henchman">henchmen</a>, minions, or <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lackey_(manservant)">lackeys</a>, not sidekicks.” David Miscavige does not have a sidekick exactly that I know of. He has a kennel of henchmen, a million minions, and lakhs of lackeys. He might have a batman, or a batgirl, or a buddy bodyguard. I have none of these: no <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henchman">henchmen</a>, minions, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lackey_(manservant)">lackeys</a>, followers, disciples, devotees, batmen, or bodyguards, and no sidekicks, or even applicants for a sidekick position.</p>
<p>The closest thing I have to a sidekick is sweet Caroline, who has accompanied me for thousands of miles and a couple of hundred thousand hours, and even accompanies me to bed, which is very sidekickesque.  She is, however, impossibly unsubordinate. I think that unsubordination &#8212; not insubordination, God forbid &#8212; has largely worked. Every other smart, good-hearted wife might also be unsubordinate to their husbands, and may their husbands be unsubordinate to them. No second bananas in the bunch.</p>
<p>It could be said that during his Sea Org period in his cult-running years, when he was riding high on the high seas, L. Ron Hubbard had a bevy of sidekicks called “Commodore’s Messengers.” They sidekicked for him in shifts or “watches.” They lit his cigarettes and held his ashtray to catch his ashes and give him a firm foundation for him to crush out his fags. They ran his messages, enforced his orders, stayed nearby, awake and on watch, even as he slept. They reportedly helped him on with his pants when he arose. Now those are sidekicks!</p>
<p>When I first came aboard the “Apollo” in 1971, Hubbard’s unmissable sidekicks, the Messengers, were all young women or just girls. They were in every way I could conceive of, on or off watch, his subordinates. And in those years, they accompanied him everywhere. He was, of course, a bit of a villain, so they could be called “handmaids,” or “henchbabes.”</p>
<p>Introvigne and his trucklers smear Professor Dvorkin as patently evil, making his sidekicks evil, no matter how minor, merely for sidekicking around with him. My association with “the notorious Dr. Dvorkin” is supposed to therefor make me wrong about Scientology. Sidekicking around with just about anyone, however, except maybe for Hitler, or Jeffrey Epstein, might prove valuable on a résumé. Even this special relationship’s negation or vilification might have value. Alanzo can emphasize on his résumé: “Globally falsely accused of being That Gerry Armstrong’s sidekick.” I might include on my résumé, when applying for one position or another: “Imputed minor sidekick of Prof. Alexander L. Dvorkin.”</p>
<p>Contemporaneousness in the material world, appears to be a necessary component in human (Wog and Scientologist) sidekick relationships. Alanzo can call Old Jim Bridger his hero, follow in Jim’s footsteps, and consider himself subordinate in the Mountain Man class. But Alanzo really can’t be Jim’s sidekick. The opportunity for a sidekickship sailed with Bridger when crippled and blinded he retired to his apple orchard in Kansas City, Missouri and died in 1881. Hubbard’s nubile sidekicks from the 1960s and ‘70s lost any chance to residekick for him when he rocketed off from his meat-body’s impediments, so the Miscavigeites’ hagiography says, “to continue his research on another plane of existence.”</p>
<p>Alanzo has a relationship with me, just as he can have one with Jim Bridger. But that relationship is not <em>sidekicking</em> for either Jim or me. It’s one hundred forty-three years too late with Jim. Sure, before Alanzo and I stop completely changing position in time, he could still conceivably accompany me somewhere, and during our accompaniment he could pass for a seemingly standard sidekick. Indeed, he could do it as a professional. Maybe the State of Wyoming would invite me, and we could sidekick for each other into the Bridger Wilderness.<br />
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridger_Wilderness">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridger_Wilderness</a></p>
<p>There is, however, the other condition I mentioned earlier, in addition to physical world accompaniment that would prevent Alanzo, and anyone else, from ever being my sidekick, and that is the impossibility of subordination. I simply do not consider Alanzo, nor anyone else, subordinate to me in any relevant way. Everyone is my equal in every relevant way; in fact, contrary to Hubbard’s big OT III “cognition,” we really <em>are </em>one.</p>
<p>Ironically, my asseverated equality with the Scientologists in every relevant way is key to why they hate me, and are doing their damnedest to silence and destroy me. They use Scientology to make themselves better and greater than us, and to give themselves exceptionality and the authority to control us. Scientology is what, in their teachings and learnings, makes them right and others wrong. They achieve superiority, in their minds, by postulating, or projecting, inferiority in others. It’s fake superiority, of course. <em>Actual</em> superiority in a relevant way is unattainable. Wogs are in every relevant way the Scientologists’ equals. Subordination is futile. Scientology doesn’t work. Thank God.</p>
<p>Years ago, not long after I started speaking out about my Scientology-related experiences and knowledge, I adopted a Bob Dylan lyric as my basic mantra for my kinship with my fellow earth-dwellers:</p>
<blockquote><p>I’m just average, common too<br />
I’m just like him, and the same as you<br />
I’m everybody’s brother and son<br />
I ain&#8217;t different than anyone<br />
Ain&#8217;t no use a-talkin’ to me<br />
It’s just the same as talkin&#8217; to you.<br />
( From “I Shall Be Free No. 10”)</p></blockquote>
<p>Over all these years, a number of people, and agents of a number of entities, have sought to talk to me, and <em>have</em> talked to me, wittingly or unwittingly, overtly or covertly, sincerely or insincerely. And they wanted to talk to me even though it was just the same as talkin’ to them, or you, or out loud on a telephone wire.</p>
<p>These days, everything I say audibly is recorded, I’m sure, and everything I think of is recorded elsewhere. After living not too far out of step with Dylan’s brotherhood-of-man confession above, I came across some on-point <em>Good Book </em>corroboration that sealed the deal for me: God making the sun to shine on the evil and on the good<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20231203003503/https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Matthew-5-45/">;</a> sending rain on the just and on the unjust; and being no respecter of persons. Check it out.</p>
<p>So, to me at least, Alanzo is not my sidekick, and never has been. And, as I said, vice versa. Nor does he strike me in any way as antisidekickish. Let’s say I actually acquire a sidekick &#8212; if for no other reason than with God all things are possible, and He is <em>inter alia sensus humoris</em> &#8212; I don’t think Alanzo would be unamused. He is not subordinate to me in any relevant way. In court or deposition, if, based reasonably on some reasonably relevant issue, some real lawyer asked me, “Are you friends with Allen Stanfield, aka Alanzo?” I predict that, given my present experiences and knowledge, I would testify, simply, “Yes.”</p>
<p>OK then, let’s say we’re friends, as far as I can see. It’s not a horribly long friendship but does go back some years. It can be readily divined and analyzed from reams of publicly available e-information, tangential and non-tangential.</p>
<p>Now, back to your question, “Why am I teaming up with Alanzo given his track record of publicly stating that he feels that Scientology is an oppressed religious minority group?” In temporal terms, it can easily be seen that whatever “teaming up” I’ve done with him, which can be ascertained from easily available public e-information, is what I might do with almost anyone. He interviewed me and I spoke up about my experiences and knowledge. All sorts of people, professional or amateur, commercial or transmundane, have interviewed me about, in some way, my Scientology-related experiences and knowledge.</p>
<p>Alanzo has communicated with me in different media just as all sorts of other persons have over my adult lifetime. So, it can reasonably be concluded that I’ve teamed up with a great slew of people. It can also be discerned that our myriad team-ups &#8212; if teaming up is seen as a temporal activity &#8212; has all sorts of temporal reasons, causes or explanations. Read all about them!</p>
<p>Now, in the realm of spirit, and certainly applicable in this public spectacle, a basic law is the holiness of relationships. All relationships are holy. None more than others. To someone who knows this, it can be seen that holy relationships can be short &#8212; a smile, a “good morning,” a drive-by shooting &#8212; or, once formed, can last a day, a night, a year, a lifetime, and, Who knows? beyond. Although he’s not my sidekick, Alanzo and I have a holy relationship. Clearly, there is nothing exceptional in this. It’s just the best factual starting point I’ve found for understanding relationships, and experiencing them, to whatever degree, in the spiritual state.</p>
<p>I’ve discovered in all this thought on sidekickery, that the truest of sidekick relationships for people everywhere is with God. He goes before, we follow. He leads us to safety and on surprise missions. He restoreth our souls. This admittedly could be a difficult relationship to form, even if an applicant had some awareness it was what he or she was hoping or holding out for. Believe me. Sidekicking for God is eminently persecutable in our society, even if He has you spending your time picking up trash, pulling weeds, or riding herd on the garbage dumpsters for Him. I know He keeps sidekicks working who haven’t a clue they’re sidekicking for Him.</p>
<p>Fortunately for God’s sidekicks, who could be a heavenly host division for all we know, sidekicking for Him is a relatively invisible activity, except to those looking for it. He, of course, is Spirit. I am not a lawyer, and nothing I say should be construed as legal advice; with that said, it could be that sidekicking for God is still a lawfully <em>unprosecutable </em>activity at this time. It is also, nevertheless, a particularly perilous activity because it will draw us into engagement with the malign, anti-God entities like the Miscavigeite Scientologists and their colluders, collaborators or coconspirators who order, implement, facilitate or countenance our persecution.</p>
<p>There are lots of people saying the world has no relationship with God. For a sensible discussion, it is better to understand that “they” simply don’t <em>realize</em> they have such a relationship, indeed a holy one. Among some of those who would say they had a relationship with Him, there is an apparency, a delusion, that He’s sort of <em>our </em>sidekick, that He goes where we wilt, He runs errands for us, He serves us.</p>
<p>God’s countless aware or unaware sidekicks’ relationship with Him can be seen clearly in the subject and activity of wisdom. He doesn’t ask for wisdom from us; but if we ask Him for wisdom, He giveth it liberally. We cannot use God, and it is better to not spend time trying. He, however, uses His sidekicks. Jesus, it could be said truthfully, was God’s perfect sidekick. He was like a son to Him.</p>
<p>My worldly relationship with Alanzo started when we were both participating on alt.religion.scientology (“a.r.s.”). We had an adversarial relationship for a while. When he was in Scientology, he had been briefed about me and brought to image me as an evil entity. I had never heard of him. In fact, I didn’t know his name for some time after we had communicated adversely or otherwise on a.r.s.</p>
<p>At some point I saw that he was being maltreated in the evolving Cybertology milieu similarly to how I was being maltreated, and by the same set, more or less, of de facto “opinion leaders” in the supposed antiscientology side of the steeming milieu. I’ve had my way of dealing with this phenomenon, and Alanzo has had his own way, which differs from mine at certain points.</p>
<p>He has been supportive publicly, accepted my words, posted my materials, spoke up, engaged with me adult-to-adult, and granted me credence. Granting credence is a crucial issue with the Miscavigeite Scientologists and their collaborators. They live by the <em>politique des paranoïaques</em> that anyone who grants credence to me, or to persons acting in concert with me, are “enemies” to be silenced and destroyed. I grant credence to Alanzo, thus vice versa, and so it goes.</p>
<p>You say, Marisa, that I’m “like mountains and mountains elevated above [Alanzo’s] intellect level,” and that’s why I “should go on [my] own.” It’s such a funny image, being mountains and mountains above Alanzo’s intellect level. It’s so impossibly untrue that it’s exceedingly risible. The truth is, he is easily just as intellectually endowed as I am. We have individual and unique educations, experiences, connections, knowledge, vocabularies, styles, interests, you name it. A rare point possibly at which our street lives actually do come close to coinciding is at our IQs, our “intellect levels.”</p>
<p>I’ve chuckled a lot in the few times Alanzo and I have talked by phone. He wrote somewhere that I’d been <em>giggling</em>, which I think he said to support a defense of me that I wasn’t, as the Miscavigeites, et al. black PR me, a humorless sociopath. I did a shallow dive into giggling and chuckling, found some giggle and chuckle “sound effects” online, and presented my materials to Alanzo. He heard me, received my evidence and argument, went with the facts and the flow, and agreed that we both had chuckled, and not giggled. I chuckled a lot because he was often funny, and I’m attuned a lot of the time to senses of humor and the incidents, connections, and words that whet them.</p>
<p>I admit to chortling too once in a while, but chuckling is my most common, average form of the “pleasant physical reaction and emotion consisting usually of rhythmical, usually audible contractions of the diaphragm and other parts of the respiratory system.” Laughter, it turns out, in which both chuckling and chortling are subforms, is a new academic subdepartment, I’m not joking, just being introduced as Risibology. In 1978, Hubbard assigned me to the RPF for “Joking,” which could make a hilarious teaching opportunity.</p>
<p>The chuckling matter evidences Alanzo’s possession of a sense of humor, which is a valuable and salvatory life gift, but also shows his willingness to change a position he’d taken. He’d made an inconsequential fact flub, mislabeling my recurrent chuckling “giggling.” I spoke up, gave him my info, and he accepted my facts. It seems to me that a big beef with him is his refusal, his critics say, to change his publicly stated facts, opinions, conclusions, etc. when legitimately challenged. You know, like a politician.</p>
<p>Actually, in relation to me, and beyond, Alanzo has demonstrated an ability to change his mind and its positions, not just by facing the music of my chuckling, but with his deeply held opinions of me as a person. He started off classifying and treating me as the proverbial evil SP, a frightful, dangerous enemy, and then he changed his mind. He’d read enough of my writings and documents, I suppose, listened to enough of my talking, and thought enough about the circumstances in which all of this was happening, to do a U-turn.</p>
<p>Mark Rathbun, Mike Rinder, and others from their group, knew me personally in the cult, and for years hated me and worked on silencing and destroying me, far beyond the antipathy Alanzo-the-Scientologist had for me, or any nastiness he did to silence and destroy me. Rathbun, Rinder, et al. left the Miscavigeite cult, they said, declared themselves free of their programming, and had for decades possessed my writings, talks, docs and thoughts, and then some. They never, however, changed their minds about me. And they all act to keep Scientology working, to keep its tax exemption working, to keep getting away with what they’ve gotten away with.</p>
<p>Alanzo has also openly promoted his major religious mind-changing and life-changing decisions, his apostasies, and where he’s at now in relation to his previously sincerely held beliefs.</p>
<blockquote><p>I was 16 years in Scientology 15 years in anti Scientology. And now I’ve been eight years out of both, writing about each.</p></blockquote>
<p>Because, materially-speaking, we had communicated, to whatever extent, and done an currently-important interview; because of his demonstrated  willingness and ability to change his mind or position; and because of your video to which I’m responding, I proposed to Alanzo to debate him regarding what you say is “his track record of publicly stating that he feels that Scientology is an oppressed religious minority group.” He agreed to my debate proposal.</p>
<p>Accepting for now what you’ve said, his fact proposition is, “Scientology is an oppressed religious minority group.” Alanzo, of course, can challenge or correct your language and this draft proposition. My counter-proposition, for now, is something like, “Sure, to a few people, because you can, as you demonstrate, get people to believe almost anything. But Scientology is so much more than that to so many more people.” Ask Al-Qaeda’s press agents; they’ll swear by Allah that they’re ‘an oppressed religious minority group.’ Ask a Jew for that matter. And for that matter, ask a Christian.</p>
<p>When I spoke to Alanzo, he agreed to a debate tentatively on the issue of “What is Scientology?” which could be one hell of a listing question for both wogs and Scientologists. Is it an oppressed religious minority group? Is it that and more? Or is it something else entirely? We agreed to work out a debate format; timetable; pre-debate stipulated facts, issues and parameters; media and other technical issues; and give ourselves time to prepare, define our terms, etc.</p>
<p>Actually, after thinking about this concept for a while, I believe an informal discussion, a conversation, not a debate, is the way to go. No winner, no loser, no moderator, nothing resembling or restimulating the electronically-laid-in US Presidential Debate engrams, which are still painful. Oddly, I disagree with Alanzo on a number of relevant Scientology-related issues. This is probably, in part, because he makes his position public on these issues, and invites discussion. I say “oddly’ because you’re pretty well telling me that I’m about the only living humanoid who agrees with Alanzo about almost anything.</p>
<p>Although he hasn’t agreed to a discussion, he did agree to a debate, so the less structured discussion format shouldn’t be at all objectionable.</p>
<p>Here are some topics he will recognize that could produce good discussions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Is Scientology just an average, common oppressed religious minority group?</li>
<li>Is “brainwashing” a scam, or a recognizable facet of Scientology?</li>
<li>What exactly are “Antiscientology” and “Anticult” or “Anticultism? and who or what cares?</li>
<li>What is a viable way forward in a quest for justice for Scientology’s victims?</li>
</ul>
<p>One last thing: Should you desire a signed printout of this letter, please send me your postal address, $15.00 US, and $10.00 US to cover printing, postage and particulars, and I will mail you such a signed document.</p>
<p>Same for anyone else who would like an originally signed copy. If there are any other documents people would like me to sign, just mail them to me, and I’ll sign for $15.00 US per page, and sensible ppp. Don’t send confessions to be signed, or a criminal conspiracy’s membership pledge, or an order form for some endangered species, or that sort of thing.  You want something a grandchild would appreciate, or collectors would pay big bucks for, and which would show up on Quora in a decade or so.</p>
<p>Peace out.</p>

<p>GERRY ARMSTRONG LISTEN UP!!!</p>
<p>Marisa Sigmond,</p>
<p>0:00 – 09:18</p>
<p>Hey everyone, how is it going? Um, I guess it&#8217;s video time. There&#8217;s,</p>
<p>there&#8217;s been a few requests for one, and there is, there&#8217;s a quite a lot of it to talk about. First and foremost, I know a lot of people are like, “Why did you name your video “Gerry Armstrong?” Well, I named it “Gerry Armstrong” for a couple of reasons, one of those being I, I have some questions for Gerry Armstrong. Um, he is a prolific, if not the original anti-scientology activist. Um, for those of you who don&#8217;t know who Gerry Armstrong is, I will put it to you this way.</p>
<p>I was born in 1978 into the shithole cult called Scientology. So I was born back in 78. I&#8217;m 45 right now. Gerry Armstrong was fighting Scientology back when I was born, which, of course, I didn&#8217;t know at the time. I found out many years later. But yeah, he is the reason why basically the public knows that L. Ron Hubbard was a fraud. He is the one that leaked the documents, uh, because of, you know, L. Ron Hubbard’s biography that was going on back then. Uh, Gerry Armstrong is the one that that realized that L. Ron Hubbard was a giant lying fraud. And Gerry Armstrong went public with that, and he has faced so much craziness.</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t … you know I&#8217;m really bad at telling other people&#8217;s stories, which is why I don&#8217;t like doing it. But I would just say at some point for those of you interested in the anti-scientology scene. I mean, I tell people all the time, I say, “Hey, this anti-scientology fight has been going on for over 40 years. It&#8217;s not brand new.” I think protesters and people need to know that, that this is a movement that has existed for 40 years.  I&#8217;ve been a part of it for, I think, going on 18. So there&#8217;s been people like Gerry Armstrong, and that&#8217;s “g e r r y” and then “Armstrong.” If you people out there would like to research him, um, he&#8217;s a wealth of information. And he lives in Canada, not because he wants to. Um, that, that is a story in itself, but he&#8217;s pretty much … I don&#8217;t know how to explain it. I don&#8217;t want to say, “ostracized,” but, like, legally, he has to stay in Scientology… or he has to stay in Canada … because of Scientology.  They did something and punished him legally some way so he&#8217;s stuck in Canada. Did I punch that one up or what?</p>
<p>Um, but for a Canadian, he&#8217;s someone that&#8217;s very well-versed with the US government in regards to religion. Scientology being a religion and how it correlates with the IRS and and tax law here in America. Um, so that&#8217;s … I just wanted to give an introduction of that. And Gerry, thank you, by the way, for everything that you&#8217;ve done.</p>
<p>Now, I want to ask you, because I was watching recently … it was an interview with you,  and as everyone jokingly knows Fellatio, or Fellatio Onzo … “Fellationzo” is what I  call him. Your sidekick. Um, I would like to ask you: As a man of your prolific stature, and lengthy history of activism and knowledge, and pretty much crushing the boundaries within the cult of Scientology …  I mean you are the original person to do that, and you&#8217;ve done so about 50 years ago.</p>
<p>Um, I want to ask you why you are teaming up with Alanzo given Alanzo&#8217;s track record of publicly stating that he feels that Scientology is an oppressed religious minority group. He even has a video about this that he made very recently, I think within the last few months, and he actually titled it with my name. “My response to Marisa Sigmond, and why I think Scientology is a religion.” And then he goes on his whole video to say why Scientology needs to be protected and it&#8217;s a religion.</p>
<p>Now, Mr Armstrong, you are free and clear to do as you&#8217;d like. I am just stating as a, um, someone I do consider, I mean, I say, a friend. We had, uh, a similar incident about a decade ago that we both were victims to. So I feel a little bit of, um, kindred spirit vibes with you. Not to mention, Mr Armstrong, I think you&#8217;re a “Libra,” so you want to keep things fair and balanced. And you&#8217;ll probably watch this and understand where I&#8217;m coming from.</p>
<p>So, but that was my question to you. Um, you&#8217;re talking about revoking the religious exemption – slash &#8212; tax exemption of Scientology in America, which is monumental to collapsing it. Um, and you&#8217;re discussing this with Alanzo, when I think that you can do … I would say, Mr. Armstrong, you should go on your own, like you did. Because you used to release your videos and everyone would be like, wow, Gerry Armstrong just released a video. But now you&#8217;re with Fellationzo and it&#8217;s kind of like, oh man.</p>
<p>Because I really want to watch and hear what you have to say, but I just can&#8217;t do it. Um, but one of the ones I, I did see. It was, it was very funny. Um, because of Fellationzo. It&#8217;s not funny because of Gerry Armstrong. But, uh, I listened to it. Uh, in the beginning, within the first like ten minutes Fellationzo asks Gerry Armstrong like, “Oh, so you mean it&#8217;s sort of like a decoy? But it was not like a decoy at all. It, it …  I could tell Gerry&#8217;s like, “Uh not really bud.” But I don&#8217;t know. That was like the first part.</p>
<p>And then, so it&#8217;s going into like the importance of Scientology and its religious labeling within our government here in America. And, uh, second part … and I&#8217;m just saying this Gerry as your friend, as someone to tell you about that video. Um, there was a part where you were talking about like a two … I think it was a 2 million or 20 million … I could have sworn it was 2 million … a $2 million check that was trying to be passed fraudulently. Um, like an L. Ron Hubbard check. And Alanzo butts in, and says, “You mean to tell me so someone forged it, someone did forgery?” And then Gerry Armstrong&#8217;s like, “Uh, no, that&#8217;s not what I mean.”</p>
<p>I … so I guess my point is: I think that when, you know, when discussing such pertinent items like, uh, the religious exemption, and financial details, and things where you need to have a little bit of technical knowledge, um, Gerry, you are like mountains and mountains elevated above, uh, Fellationzo’s intellect level. And I say that with all due respect.  Um, um, so that&#8217;s why I say I just think that you should go, um, on your own like the Gerry Armstrong Channel. Or you could definitely get on a channel that, with much a larger following. Because you have an amazing story. You are the original person to have it publicly known.</p>
<p>I think without Gerry Armstrong this movement would not be here, where, where it is today. It may possibly not even ex, exist at all. Um, so anyways, I think that&#8217;s the main thing, is: how can you talk about collapsing Scientology when you&#8217;re teaming up with somebody that wants to save Scientology and openly says it&#8217;s an oppressed, uh, minority religious group?</p>
<p>That&#8217;s, that&#8217;s the main thing. And yeah, I also want to see if like my house is going to explode, or I&#8217;m going to have people scaling my walls or doing something bad to me because I&#8217;m saying Gerry Armstrong&#8217;s name. All right, so that&#8217;s the first part.</p>
<p>[…]</p>
<p>34:51 – 38:08</p>
<p>So I could say a lot more just whatever propaganda. It&#8217;s not even propaganda, it&#8217;s, it&#8217;s just like junk coming from Alanzo. And he&#8217;s pretty much jealous because he&#8217;s realizing he has no friends. He&#8217;s shit on everyone from the Aftermath Foundation, the SPTV Foundation. No, no second gens like him. He has no one to get information from anymore. That&#8217;s why he&#8217;s flipping out on me and going crazy, Because he&#8217;s realizing nobody wants to fucking talk to his ass. Uh, except for Gerry Armstrong for some reason. But hopefully Gerry will have a second chance of thinking about things and the direction that he is going. Because I do think he has an extensive voice that should be expanded to the masses.</p>
<p>Um, and he is absolutely right, and I have been saying this for well over a decade. I hate when I say something a decade ago, but then Aaron says it, and then everyone thinks it&#8217;s cool. I&#8217;m just joking, Aaron. But no, I, I was saying like 10 years ago, I&#8217;m like, you guys do not understand the importance of Scientology having a religious label. And I think people don&#8217;t get that, or they don&#8217;t understand it. Um, so I emphasize that. Of course, I know, and many of us know, that Scientology is not a religion. We look at it as a cult.</p>
<p>But you know what. Our Pentagon, and our White House, they don&#8217;t see things the same way that we do. They have ruled that Scientology is a religion, so in the United States, Scientology is in the same ranks of Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Sikhism, whatever. Scientology has gained that right in America. And when I was watching Gerry Armstrong and Alanzo&#8217;s exchange, again there were a lot of questions I could have asked Gerry, because I find it a fascinating subject. But I had to listen to Fellationzo&#8217;s childlike voice asking Gerry really goofy questions, and it just, it ruined the serious, seriousness of the interview for me.</p>
<p>Um, but you know it is true, because if, if you are a religion in America it, it&#8217;s the same thing as saying that you&#8217;re like a racial minority or something. It&#8217;s the same thing, so Scientology can play this discrimination thing, of like religious discrimination, blah blah blah, and it&#8217;s going to be taken just as seriously as if someone from a mosque or synagogue made that same complaint. So people don&#8217;t understand that.  They don&#8217;t understand, like, the importance of that in the United States. And the United States has never revoked a religious label from a group. That&#8217;s never happened.</p>

<p>Someone submitted Alanzo’s March 26 video “Scientology&#8217;s Tax Exemption What You Need to Know with Gerry Armstrong”<sup data-fn="d2ceafda-74bb-4f57-b685-1738d112cade" class="fn"><a href="#d2ceafda-74bb-4f57-b685-1738d112cade" id="d2ceafda-74bb-4f57-b685-1738d112cade-link">1</a></sup> to Reddit, and “Sneakster” Michael Hobson commented:</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>Armstrong has had three decades to get rid of Scientology&#8217;s tax exemption since it was reinstated in 1993. I submit that he doesn&#8217;t actually know how to get it removed. <sup data-fn="bfb65379-e21b-44b6-b6d2-eed7ab5e4a5c" class="fn"><a href="#bfb65379-e21b-44b6-b6d2-eed7ab5e4a5c" id="bfb65379-e21b-44b6-b6d2-eed7ab5e4a5c-link">2</a></sup></p>
</blockquote>



<p>Worldometer says the planetary population in 1993 was five billion, five hundred seventy-seven million, four hundred thirty-three thousand, five hundred twenty-three. All these people have had just as much time as I’ve had to get rid of the Miscavigeite Scientology cult’s exemption. Some have died, sure, but billions are still alive and none of them have gotten rid of it.</p>



<p>According to Scientologist logician Michael Hobson, a trained Scientology “Data Evaluator,” <em>nobody</em> knows how to get the tax exemption removed, which is proven by it not being removed. It was unlawfully obtained, and was, and remains, lawfully and eminently undeserved. Those facts are key to getting it removed, but Hobson, for a very obvious reason, has ignored them.</p>



<p>In order to scientifically confirm his clear conclusion that nobody knows how to get rid of the unlawfully-obtained tax exemption, he would have to interview every now-living person, some eight billion, one hundred fifteen million, seven hundred twenty thousand, nine hundred ninety-nine as I type this. In his interview, he would have to get all of them to attest that they indeed do not know how to get rid of the cult’s tax exemption. He would have to, moreover, determine beyond a reasonable doubt that none of them is lying, because some of them might actually and secretly know how to get rid of it. He would also have to himself know how to get rid of the tax exemption in order to determine that all of these more than eight billion people’s suggestions, if they have any, for how to get rid of it, are wrong. He would have to do all that to be able to <em>honestly</em> state that no one actually knows how to get it removed.</p>



<p>Again employing Scientologic, because no one since 1993 has gotten rid of the Scientology’s cult’s unlawfully-obtained and undeserved tax exemption, and it being concluded based on that fact that no one actually knows how to get it removed, no one should be listened to concerning its removal. No one can possibly know how it can be removed, because it hasn’t been. Q.E.D.</p>



<p>No Major League baseball player has hit five home runs in a game since 1948, and tens of thousands of them have had seven and four-fifth’s decades, so none knows how, because they haven’t done it. No one who hasn’t been to Poughkeepsie can possibly know how to get there. If they knew how to get there, they would have been there. Billions and billions of them.</p>



<p>Why then did Hobson single me out, as if I am the only person on earth in all these years since 1993 who hasn’t gotten rid of the cult’s tax exemption? Why am I the only person, he submits, who doesn’t actually know how to get it removed? And why am I, therefore, the only person, he implies, who shouldn’t be listened to?</p>



<p>Because he serves David Miscavige’s purposes.</p>



<p>Hobson has cyberstalked me for many years.<sup data-fn="83f21100-9214-4f3d-8452-12f483890691" class="fn"><a href="#83f21100-9214-4f3d-8452-12f483890691" id="83f21100-9214-4f3d-8452-12f483890691-link">3</a></sup> </p>



<p>Don’t be fooled because he criticizes cult head David Miscavige, even if Hobson calls him a midget. Miscavige knows a midget is a few inches short of himself, and “critics” have been calling him a dwarf, even an asthmatic dwarf, or, as Hobson standardly calls him, “Darth Midget,” for decades. He doesn’t care. He has lifts. But he seriously cares, and treasures it gargantuanly, when a seeming critic of himself, like Hobson, attacks me.</p>



<p>I really haven’t said much about how to get the Miscavigeite Scientology cult’s IRS tax exemption removed. I have provided usable bases for various approaches for achieving its removal: extortion, false statements, violations of public policy. I can, however, provide one essential step that needs be taken by the removers: they must want to remove it.</p>



<p>Miscavige, of course, certainly knows how to get rid of his unlawfully-obtained and wholly undeserved IRS tax exemption. Just tell the truth. Tell it publicly. Tell it to his victims. Tell it to his underlings. Tell it to his US Government coconspirators. He has had since 1993 to get rid of it, and he hasn’t. But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t know how to get it removed. He and his coconspirators simply do not want it removed, and he uses his cat’s paws like Hobson to black PR his hated targets. And Hobson too does not want to get rid of the Miscavigeite cult’s tax exemption.<br>
For the record, I discovered my first bit of what the Miscavigeites submitted to the IRS to get tax exemption when I got my first Internet account in 1997. That bit, which included some nasty black propaganda on me, caused me to leave my home in California and return to Canada, where I would be able to live more freely. That’s an incident I’ve written about many times. I found more pieces of the cultists’ submissions and more black PR over the next few years. Only in 2014 did I connect enough dots to conclude that the IRS, DOJ, etc., were not conned by the Scientologists, but conspired with them. They are coconspirators, and must defend and preserve the conspiracy.</p>



<p>The Miscavigeites – Mike Rinder, Mark Rathbun, Miscavige himself – state in their submission to the IRS, which bagged for them tax exemption, and other undeserved benefits” “Relying on Armstrong or the Armstrong decision is wholly unjustified.” This is Hobson’s message as well.</p>



<p>The US Government coconspirators did not investigate anything the Miscavigeites stated about me in their submissions. These officials did not even contact me. They did not object to the lies the Miscavigeites told about me, even though these lies were refuted by the documented truth in the Government’s own files. The involved officials of the IRS, DOJ, etc. were happy to go along with, indeed require, their Miscavigeite coconspirators’ scurvy lie that relying on me, my testimony, the judgment in my litigation were wholly unjustified.</p>

<p>Many thanks to Alanzo for the interview, the video, the transcript, and for not getting his thought stopped by all the thought-stopping going down. He’s off on a mission and okayed me to post this.</p>
<p>I have a lot of documents on my “Armstrong Op” site concerning the Miscavigeite Scientologists’ actions against the US Government and private citizens, including, notably, me, in their criminal campaign for tax exemption.<br />
<a href="https://armstrong-op.gerryarmstrong.ca/about/">https://armstrong-op.gerryarmstrong.ca/about/</a><br />
<a href="https://armstrong-op.gerryarmstrong.ca/documents/irs/">https://armstrong-op.gerryarmstrong.ca/documents/irs/</a></p>
<p>The Miscavigeites unlawfully evaded a billion-dollar IRS tax liability; unlawfully obtained a billion-dollar tax exemption for all their entities; and are raking in billions that flow from the unlawfully-obtained tax deductibility for all the money people, whether whales or bait, pay to the cult.</p>
<p>The relevant US Government officials colluded with the Miscavigeites. These officials were happy to have the undeserved tax exemption, etc. extorted from them, and required that the cultists lie in their submissions to the IRS in an effort justify the grant of tax exemption, etc., which the officials knew was undeserved.</p>
<p>The “deal” between the IRS and Miscavigeite Scientology, and the “negotiations” preceding it, constitute a clear “Conspiracy to Defraud the United States,” 18 U.S.C. § 371. Bizarrely, and corruptly, the US, utilizing its own Government departments and officials involved in the deal, conspired to defraud itself. It also, of course, conspired to defraud its citizens, whom, on paper, the US Government exists to serve. And it has in the process debased the meaning, purposes and moral standards of “religion” nationally and around the world.</p>
<h3>Transcript:</h3>
<blockquote><p>Alanzo<br />
Hello! It’s Alanzo from AlanzosBlog.com. I was 16 years in Scientology 15 years in anti Scientology. And now I’ve been eight years out of both, writing about each.</p>
<p>I’m here with Gerry Armstrong tonight and we are going to have a discussion about a correct understanding of Scientology tax exemption and how people can be effective in doing something about it. And so, Gerry, as I understand it, there’s been a lot of really false information about Scientology tax exemption, which has given everybody a kind of dysfunctional idea about how to proceed in challenging their tax exemption.</p>
<p>So can you start off by by letting us know the types of things that have been said over the years that gives everyone a kind of dysfunctional understanding, which is going to get in the way of being able to do something about their tax exemption?</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Oh, sure. And first of all, I must say that I am not a lawyer, and nothing that I say, should be construed as legal advice.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Me too. Me too.</p>
<p>Arguing Scientology is Not A Religion Does Nothing To Revoke Scientology Tax Exemption<br />
Gerry Armstrong<br />
Okay. So first, first off, one of the things that people have tried to do over the years, is attack the tax exemption on the basis of Scientology’s not being a religion, and that cannot be done. And that is because the US Federal Government has stated that only an organization itself, not the government, not non-members, can determine that it is a religion.</p>
<p>Scientology or Scientologists determined that their organization is a religion, and that’s it. That is the reality in the US and it is silly and serves the Scientologists purposes to accuse them of not being a religion. They will line up 100 academics to prove with all kinds of arguments and evidence that they are a religion, and every court will go along with the academics and the cult and the government.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
So it’s kind of a decoy issue, right? As long as people are arguing that issue, no one’s gonna get to the effective points that will actually do something.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
That’s correct.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Yeah, yeah, they do that a lot.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Yes. Theologically, they are a proprietary brand of Satanic Luciferianism. That’s theologically. They are a Luciferianism, because of their devotion to Hubbard, a human being rather than God. And now, Miscavige, that’s where their devotion is. They are Satanic because of their extreme lying, their corruption of their members to enforce moral cowardice, and their anti God scripture.</p>
<p>It is a criminal organization in continual violation of 18 US Code section 241. Conspiracy against rights.</p>
<p>Nevertheless, they are a religion. People can be excused for not considering them a religion. I didn’t. When I got into Scientology, it was on the basis that they were a science and they actually scoffed at religion. Religion was a cover that we, in the cult, cleared the planet with Hubbard’s scientific technology.</p>
<p>And just to clarify, a point, a religion could be a cult and a cult could be a religion. In a sense, they’re, they’re synonymous. In a way, cult is the form of organization. The the type of management is a dictatorship within an organization which has the form of a cult.</p>
<p>Islamic State is a religion. Their sincerity is demonstrated by their willingness to martyr themselves and murder others.</p>
<p>“Our Thing” church. “Our Thing” church, if they were to call themselves a church is very similar in form and construction to Scientology. “Our Thing” the English interpretation of Cosa Nostra. It’s a protection racket. So, if the Costa Nostra were to determine themselves a religion, then Al Capone would never have gone to prison for tax evasion. He would have been given tax exemption.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Okay.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Now Islamic State doesn’t get tax exemption because they violate public policy. And Scientology, the Miscavigite entity anyway, should not get tax exemption for the same reason. They violate tax public policy. They violated public policy to get the tax exemption. Public policy is founded on constitutional and national laws and regulations. So a violation of law cannot be public policy. You can’t have public policy which countenances law breakage. Violation of law is a violation of public policy.</p>
<p>And Scientology is in continual violation of the law, and they violated the law to get the tax exemption.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
So to argue that they’re not a religion is a complete dead end when it comes to trying to revoke their tax exemption. Instead, you’re suggesting another avenue to take?</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Well, in the realm of religion, there is something that can be done there. And that is, Scientology the Miscavigite Scientology’s violations of freedom of religion, because that’s what they do. So give them religion. That the US declared them a religion can be used to help abrogate their tax exemption, and government defense and support.</p>
<p>It’s an Akito move. They violate religious freedom and impermissible violation of public policy. And the Scientology V. Gerry Armstrong cases, multiple cases, are extremely useful. But more on this later.</p>
<p>The other two aspects or crimes in their effort to get tax exemption – that people can grasp and use – the first is the Scientologist’s extortion of the IRS, and the willful false statements in their submission on which the tax exemption was, supposedly at least, granted.</p>
<p>What Scientology Got From the IRS In Exchange for “Turning Off the Faucet” of Extortion<br />
Now, First came the extortion. The Scientologists extorted the IRS, extorted officials of the federal government. Now it’s true that the government went along with the extortion and that’s often the case with extortion. Extortion can be successful or unsuccessful. The Scientologists were successful.</p>
<p>First came the extortion and that’s “the faucet story”. It goes like this: “We will turn off the faucet of exposure of your secrets – that’s in line with extortion and blackmail.”</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
In order to gain something of value.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Yes, correct, in this case, a billion dollar liability wiped out, deductions for all the people who are giving them millions of dollars, and a green light to further defraud, abuse, and commit crimes against the US’s own citizens but not the government.</p>
<p>So yes, we will turn off the faucet of exposure of your secrets, the false accusations against you, and the true accusations against you. Your violations of public policy, baseless lawsuits against you, stalking your officials, etc. And you give us tax exemption, give all our members tax deductions for the money that they give us, and greenlight are defrauding, abusing and rights violations of your non-governmental citizens once the extortion was negotiated.</p>
<p>Because this took place over a two year period according to Rinder and Rathbun. They were flying out to meet with the IRS from LA to DC, they said, virtually weekly.</p>
<p>So once the extortion was negotiated then the false statements were agreed to.</p>
<p>And here, regarding false statements, look up 18 US Code section 1001 and 26 US Code section 7206.</p>
<p>All Scientology’s academics – can not prove that making false statements to the IRS or to the Justice Department is lawful, or protected religious exercise, and I don’t think they would dare try. I doubt that there would be lawyers, who would say, “Oh, it’s just ducky to submit false statements to the IRS. That’s fine.”</p>
<p>No, no, this is, this is the key: Extortion. What they obviously negotiated as part of what you Scientology gets to do: You get to submit these false statements – and the relevant submissions to the IRS are on my site, the Armstrong Op, people can go through them.</p>
<p>Note the false statements they know are false. I have largely done this concerning the multitude of false statements about myself, about my lawyer Mike Flynn, himself, and his other clients. And I will talk about these false statements in the future. Then the government, citizens, foreign governments and their citizens should be told, with evidence, that Scientology tax exemption was illegally obtained by extortion and fraud.</p>
<p>That’s the approach that I think would work in the US and around the world. If people were to get behind it, and do the work required to study what was submitted and understand the extortion. What’s the quid pro quo, and what did each side give away and promise?</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Okay, I see what you’re saying. So it is different than they black, they just blackmailed the IRS to get tax exemption. They extorted them tit for tat, we will turn off the faucet if you allow us to have tax exemption. And in order for us to gain this tax exemption, we will make these false statements that overcome the barriers that you’ve placed in our way, and you will accept those false statements and we’ll get tax exemption.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Right. All of our people will be able to deduct all the millions of dollars that they give us. And we will be able to continue to violate public policy and violate people’s rights. That’s the deal. But, and part of the deal, we won’t go after you. So people can go back and see what Scientology was saying about the IRS, the criminal organization…</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
There was a program. There was a program in Scientology called C.A.T.S. Citizens Against Tax…. What was it? Tax Suppression or something? My mission holder, because he’d been a Scientologist for so many decades, was basically considered a tax protester. And so were many other Scientologists. And I remember after they got the tax exemption, one of the things that the church was doing to all Scientologists, they were making sure that they were filing their taxes. You would have to go to ethics if you didn’t file your taxes. They became almost kind of an enforcement arm of the IRS for a while there, after the exemption.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Right. And at the same time, they were marketing and advertising with, you know, pictures of Uncle Sam saying, now you can deduct it all the money that you give us.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Yes, yes. I remember those days. Well, okay, so we have up on the screen here we have the statements that Scientology made about you, that you are considering some of the fraudulent statements that were made in order to gain tax exemption?</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Right, that is that contains one or more of their false statements.</p>
<p>One of the things the statement here, which is very important, and I’ll read it off, “we have included some background information here. And an epilogue to the decision in question….”</p>
<p>The decision in question is what’s known as the Breckenridge decision, which is the decision in judgment in the Scientologists first case against me. That’s the one in which L Ron Hubbard was declared virtually a pathological liar and the judge condemned culling of PC folders and identified Scientology as paranoid and schizophrenic. So that’s the case in question here.</p>
<p>Scientology continues, “…that is because The Service (Internal Revenue Service) has continuously thrust the Armstrong case at us, demanding an explanation” – So the Armstrong case had since that judgment in 1984, and here we’re into when they filed this was 1992 the Armstrong case had been material in the IRS is denial of tax exemption. So they can simply say, ‘Oh, well, this is extraneous or irrelevant or unimportant’. No, it was material.</p>
<p>The IRS was demanding an explanation and the Scientologists were not, obviously, not giving them one. And the explanation that they give does not explain the case at all – Where they say, “We truly believe that Armstrong it is psychotic“. That is no explanation and it’s an attempted explanation or an excuse with a lie. And that’s because I simply am not psychotic. The Scientologists knew I was not psychotic. The IRS knew, the FBI knew, and the whole Justice Department knew.</p>
<p>Scientology Claimed Gerry Armstrong Was “Psychotic” In Order to Get the IRS to Grant Scientology Tax Exemption<br />
Alanzo<br />
Well, what’s so interesting to me is that here’s a claim that’s made “Gerry Armstrong is psychotic”. And yet no expert, no psychiatrist, no evaluation from any, any psychiatric expert at all is brought into this discussion. It’s just that we’re going to completely ignore the Breckenridge Decision. Just all of that, we’re just going to set that aside, and we’re going to call you a psycho. That is classic ad hominem attack. And I said this the last time, I don’t understand how a legal or public policy process like this could ever even entertain such an argument.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Psychotic or psychosis is of course, a medical term.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Right.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
So essentially, the officials involved, the IRS, Justice Department accepted this diagnosis, as if the Scientologists were psychiatric professionals qualified to render such a diagnosis.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
LOL! Mike Rinder the Psychiatrist!</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
LOL! Mike Rinder the psychiatrist. Yeah. David Miscavige the psychiatrist! Mark Rathbun the psychiatrist. They were so qualified to render such a medical diagnosis that the IRS, the FBI, etc. did not investigate, did not check with me, did not question it. They accepted it as if these people were qualified.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
So that’s very interesting.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
And they continue on… “as we shall demonstrate below. All this decision (the Breckenridge decision) ever involved was Armstrong’s state of mind, which subsequently obtained evidence proved conclusively to be one sordid, sadomasochistic nightmare.” Now, that is not all that the Breckenridge decision concerned at all</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Not a bit. And that this is an official filing to a government agency with a sentence like that… it is just shocking.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Yes it is. That it was so shocking to me. I didn’t read this until I arrived in Canada.</p>
<p>I got my first internet account in the beginning of 1997. And that’s where I read a section of their submission to the IRS. That’s where I saw that they had labeled me psychotic and that they had discussed the Armstrong case in the Breckenridge Decision. That was in 97. They got their tax exemption in 93.</p>
<p>In these filings to the IRS, there are somewhat at least 145 mentions of me by name. There’s a mass of material about me.</p>
<p>Now, I was at that point, involved in litigation with the Scientologists, headed by the head of legal was Mike Rinder. And in those cases, they had to produce to me everything that they had published about me, and they did not provide that. They did not disclose what they had filed with the IRS. The idea and the lawsuits were to silence me about my experiences and knowledge. They got an order which says that they can say whatever they want about me, and I cannot respond.</p>
<p>It’s my belief that is such a perverse unconstitutional order that I am sure that the US federal government agents went into state court and got that state judge to issue this order, in the hope that I would be silenced, just because of the dirty deal that they had cut with the Scientologists.</p>
<p>So the idea that I could not respond to what they filed to get a billion dollar tax exemption?</p>
<p>Bullshit.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Yeah. This is like, you would figure in order to get a billion dollars we’re gonna need to shut Gerry Armstrong up. And we’re gonna use everything we can to make sure that he shuts up. So isn’t there some kind of, of a levying of a fine on you? Every time you mentioned the word “Scientology” in public? What is it? Isn’t that is that part of this?</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Yes. $50,000 per utterance. And it’s per recipient. So, recipient who hears it, who reads it.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Okay, so if 10,000 People watch this video with you, then it’s $50,000 times 10,000 that you you need to pay…. who do you pay? Do you pay Mike Rinder that? Or do you pay the federal government that? How does that work?</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
No, that goes it goes to the Church of Scientology International.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
This is so ridiculous!</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Plus, I get to go to jail. And, and I’m fined. No, the amount that, according to their calculations I owe them, is up in the trillions. It’s that bizarre.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
It’s a joke. They have made a joke of US law.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Yes. This is another factor too: I cannot say one word about my experiences. And those are religious experiences. I can’t say one word about my knowledge. That is religious knowledge. They are a religion organized solely for religious practices. That’s what the IRS says.</p>
<p>And every one of their organizations or affiliated organizations, so Narconon, Criminon. And their corporations, RTC, CST, CSI, CSC. And all of their organizations around the world, Church of Scientology of British Columbia, Church of Scientology of San Francisco, Church of Scientology of Moscow. And all of the franchise’s or missions around the world. And every one of their directors, officers, volunteers, employer, employees, lawyers – every one of them. They can say whatever they want, and I can’t say one word about them.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
I have to say that I’ve never seen you actually go quiet, ever, since this decision.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Well, I actually did. I did go quiet to a degree. I signed their ridiculous document, which I understood. I knew that ramifications of it. Because my lawyer at the time, Michael Flynn, said, “Gerry it’s not worth the paper it’s printed on! They are paying you to dismiss your claims against them up to this moment. But regarding the future, you cannot give away that right. You can’t sign away your constitutional rights. And also, Gerry, should anything happen, I’ll be there for you.”</p>
<p>Well, that has never happened. I have pleaded with him 50 or more times to come forward, execute a declaration. He has never done it.</p>
<p>Now they made his life hell. They’ve framed him with the forgery and attempt to pass a $2 million check on one of L Ron Hubbard’s accounts at the Bank of New England.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Hold on, they forged his signature on a check to make it look like he was trying to steal $2 million?</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
No, someone attempted to pass a check on L Ron Hubbard’s account for $2 million. It was scammers who had somebody inside the bank. Then the Scientologists, Mark Rathbun, Eugene Ingram, their famous nasty PI who threatened to put a bullet between my eyes, they paid the person who actually committed the crime $25,000 to execute an affidavit which Ingram wrote, prepared. in order to get Flynn. They framed Flynn.</p>
<p>So that was just one crime. They made his life hell for some seven years. He claims – and this is the way they operate – he claims that they put water in his gas tank of his airplane, and that it sputtered out in mid flight. And it was constant. And his, his family was freaked out by it. He was desperate to get out of the litigation.</p>
<p>Now what he said to me was true, that the prohibitions are not worth the paper it’s printed on.</p>
<p>It took a corrupt judge and a corrupt federal government to get the orders against me. The first judge that they put the agreement, which I signed in front of him, he said, “Judge Breckenridge would never have signed this. And I’m not going to sign it. This is the most lopsided one sided contract I have virtually ever seen”.</p>
<p>And then they took it to another court, where they got a corrupt judge to sign it.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
So I’m sitting here thinking about you in 1997, hooking yourself up to the Internet, and you’re doing this search on the filings that Scientology submitted. And then seeing your name. I mean, it took two or three, four or five years for you to be able to have this revealed about how they used you to get tax exemption and the way in which they used you. And the way in which they used you?</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Right. And they with, and they withheld that from me, despite the orders for them to produce everything that they were publishing about me</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Court orders during depositions and other things during lawsuits you’re having with them in the intervening years, because of the tax exemption. And when you got a an internet connection, you were finally able to see these documents, right?</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Right, in discovery, which is an aspect of litigation, they had to produce documents concerning me that they had published. So they did turn over a couple of fairly innocuous things that I might have even already seen. But they withheld, the big one. And then I knew with what Rinder had said to me, because he told me to my face. I said, “this is black propaganda” of what they were doing was black propaganda. This was in 1994, before I learned of what they filed with the IRS. And he says, “yes, and we’re going to keep doing it until you shut up”.</p>
<p>That in itself, that’s extortion. But when I saw the document that they filed with the IRS, or at least a part of it, then and the billion dollars, and the fact that they had withheld it, then I knew the importance of the role that I played in this.</p>
<p>And I knew I had to get away.</p>
<p>And that’s what I did. I, I took off within a couple of days. I wrote a declaration for Grady Ward, remember that name? Grady Ward, Dennis Erlich and Wollersheim. That was the point that I left for Canada. And then without service on me, because I was in Canada, and you have to have personal service to do this, they were able to get an order of contempt against me. And this was for the Declaration, which I had written for Grady Ward, pursuant to a subpoena.</p>
<p>So Ward subpoenaed me, I wrote a declaration. And I filed it with the US District Court in San Francisco Federal Court in their case, and then I left. When I was in Canada, without service on me, then they got a contempt order. And then when I filed an appeal from this ridiculous California state court order, then they they got it dismissed on the basis that I was a fugitive from justice. So there’s a doctrine that says that if that a fugitive from justice, cannot use the courts. So that, also, is a ridiculous order. And I believe that the federal agencies went to state appeals court to try and get rid of me.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Well, let me ask you this question. Who was it Kendrick Moxon, who was filing all these things against you at that time?</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Well, Moxon was definitely involved in my case. Another one was Lindsay Bartilson (CORRECTION: Laurie Jo Bartilson). And this concerned a San Francisco lawyer, Andrew Wilson. So those were the main State Court lawyers on my case at that time. And there had been other lawyers previously, but Wilson was the one. He actually threatened me, if I were to respond to Grady Ward’s subpoena. That was another factor that added in to my decision to leave.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
All right. And so and Mike Rinder was the legal officer at this time. So he was running and executing and managing this whole legal team. Is that correct?</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
He was the CO of the Office of Special Affairs International, one of the bureaus of which is legal. So he ran legal, PR, and intelligence,</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Right. And so as CO OSA, he would have seen all of these filings and approved all of those filings.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Well seen certainly. He had a duty to see them all. Whether or not they needed his use approval, Miscavige’s was enough. Miscavige was intimately involved in all the cases against me. Miscavige was intimately involved in all the lies to the IRS.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Yes. And so when you take a look at Mike Rinder, you know, he’s been out for 15 years. And he is he’s a hero, okay? He, he’s a redemptive hero, he has turned his life around, and now he’s going after the cult. And yet when it comes to you, and this legal, this scheming legal bind that they have put you in, has Mike Rinder ever made any kind of move to alleviate, or give you the information necessary for you to alleviate, the contrived legal bind that you’re in?</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Right. He has done nothing. And worse than nothing, he has continued to black PR me, including this smear that I’m psychotic.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Yes. He’s just continuing to run that line, that he began way back in the 80s. And that they used into the 90s to get Scientology tax exemption, that you’re a psycho. And even after getting out for 15 years, he continues to run that line.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Yes. And he has had many of his followers do the same thing. You know, Aaron Smith Levin and “Gerry Armstrong’s hearing things through the air conditioner”. You know, another smear that he got from Mike Rinder. Stefani Hutchison, smear from Mike Rinder. Dan Sherman, he writes to the newspaper in Boston, that, “yeah, Armstrong’s a is certifiably nut”, you know, and Rathbun, same thing,</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
I posted a lot to Marty’s blog. And there was a point while he was in his lawsuit with the Church of Scientology, he hadn’t dropped it yet, and it was it was as if, you know, Marty was this really big warrior against Scientology. And everybody was praising him for being such an effective warrior. And right in the middle of that, I asked Marty in a comment. I said, “So with all this legal stuff, don’t you think that you can help Gerry Armstrong out and reveal what it is that you guys did to put him into the legal bind that he’s in?”</p>
<p>And as it happened, I knew that Marty was on the blog at that time. And so I waited for his answer. And within a half hour, he answered, and he says, “you know, every time I think about Gerry Armstrong, I just go unconscious.” That was his answer.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Right. And he also, he also wrote, someone else queried him about me. And he wrote, “If Armstrong would write something that is understandable, I would answer him.” So, you know, of all of the hundreds of 1000s of words that I’ve written nothing to Marty was understandable.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Yeah. Because he’s unconscious! Every time he sees you! Because that explains how he can’t understand anything!</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
So he was willing to make himself sound like stupid, like ignorant, you know, just to not have to answer.But you know, “Armstrong isn’t isn’t understandable”. That goes along with the psychosis.</p>
<p>Marty Rathbun and Mike Rinder Are Still Protecting Scientology Tax Exemption<br />
Alanzo<br />
Yes. Yes. And all this is all part of continuing to protect the tax exemption. Right. It’s, it’s as if they’re still working for Scientology. Yes. And by by continuing to protect the tax exemption, maybe there’s something in it for them like a nice retirement package or some kind of thing. If they can distract everyone off of this and retain Scientology tax exemption, maybe there’s a quick quid pro quo. Like Mike might have a of house waiting for him in Bermuda, or Marty has another one say on Galveston Bay or, or something like that.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Or maybe someone will win an Emmy me for him.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Exactly. You could be an Emmy winner, Mike, if you just protect Scientology tax exemption for us!</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
And, you know, intelligence, it’s common to use awards that way. And to control awards.</p>
<p>And you’ll notice that in all of the Aftermath series, there’s nothing. There’s nothing that deals with the Gerry Armstrong situation – the person that Rinder fair gamed more than anyone else. And the tax exemption, there’s nothing effective. They’ve completely omit the two areas, which are key. One is the extortion, we extorted them. And the other is the false submissions, which smear and defame me.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Yeah, so the extortion. That’s that’s something they did. But what did the IRS do in return for ending the extortion? That’s the key question. And then here and with the second part is, what lies were told about Gerry Armstrong, in order to get tax exemption?</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Those are key.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Yeah. So so you’re, if I understand this correctly, you’re saying there are two ways that a listener or someone in the audience with some kind of skill can use to help to revoke Scientology tax exemption – with these two ways.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Well, there’s, there’s three actually, and that is Scientology’s violations of the freedom of religion, of members, or outside people. Those contracts by which they silence people about their religious experiences, and religious knowledge, must be ruled unlawful.</p>
<p>Now, the US federal government, a part of the State Department, the International Commission for International Religion, Freedom of Religion, they go around to other countries of the world, and enforce the US is standard of freedom of religion on those other countries. But what the free US federal government itself, and its courts, and its religions, like Scientology, are doing violate the very laws that they’re enforcing on other countries: Condemning other countries for the violations of freedom of religion. Whereas it’s demonstrable in the US that Scientology violates freedom of religion.</p>
<p>Now, freedom of religion in the US, unfortunately, has come to mean ‘freedom of the religious corporation to suppress the religious freedom of individuals’. Only individuals can have freedom of religion. For freedom of religion to exist, you have to be able to leave a religion in a flash, “I’m done right now.” It is unlawful for Scientology to hold people who want to leave – for a second!</p>
<p>Now, the Headley case, the Headley case I believe, was manipulated in order to give Scientology, the judge-made-law to violate freedom of religion. Also, religious arbitration: If a person can’t leave and leave completely and have access to the laws of the country, then there is no freedom of religion. Sending them back for religious arbitration, which is a sacrament in Scientology, then no freedom of religion.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Yeah, it forces them. It forces them to practice a religion that is not their own and which they have left and in most cases, denounced, publicly denounced. And it forces them to have to practice it again.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Right in front of people who hate them. That is absolutely deranged. And that the courts are going along with this, this madness, this anti religious madness.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
There’s, you know, there’s the thing about contract law, okay. And in all of these things you can sign. It’s my understanding – I’m not a lawyer – but it’s my understanding that you can actually sign a right away. By signing a contract.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
You can sign certain rights away, and you can you can compel someone to do something. But, do you think, of course would enforce…. in order for someone to leave a religion in the US, and they force him to sign a contract, which says, “You will never pray to God? And if you pray to God, you have to pay $50,000” Now, that’s something that – sure you can sign it. But what, what court there, there are certain things which you cannot sign away, the contract is at fault.</p>
<p>And the courts are at fault for enforcing an unenforceable impermissible condition in a contract.</p>
<p>Now, you as a church, sure, you can prevent someone from ever coming in ever again. But you can’t prevent him from talking about his religious experiences. And you can’t prevent him from praying to God, or not praying to God. How about a contract that says, you know, you must pray to God 24 hours a day, okay, I sign it. And now they catch him having lunch somewhere, not praying to God, you know, into court and off to the pokey. Yeah, it’s madness.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
That’s a good example. Gerry, I like that.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Yes, there are all kinds of rights, which you cannot lawfully, while you can sign it away, but it cannot be enforced. The contract against me is a classic example. They cannot, there cannot be contract law cannot enter into it.</p>
<p>You cannot contract away freedom of religion.</p>
<p>Scientology Still Fairgaming Gerry Armstrong to This Day<br />
Alanzo<br />
Yeah. So back in let’s see was it 2022? When Moxon filed that 190 Page submission to to open up a? What was that? You were, there was a rumor that you were going to come into California and give a speech somewhere.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Right. The rumor was concocted by Scientology. I am convinced of it. So they had a couple of people on Why We Protest, a dialogue between them about Gerry Armstrong. “I heard Gerry Armstrong’s coming to San Francisco to give a talk”. While there was no central idea, but then using that concocted story, Moxon went in to Marin Superior court to try and extend an arrest warrant on me.</p>
<p>And fortunately, I was able to defend myself and get it removed. Now. Interestingly, Moxon threatened, within that hearing, that they were going to extradite me. So come up into Canada, and get an order of extradition, ordering me back to the US to serve my jail sentences – which there are in the US – for daring to speak about my experiences, and my knowledge of Scientology.</p>
<p>And fortunately, a key point: Moxon lied to the judge. He claimed that he had never received my opposition to their papers. It was an ex parte application. Ex Parte application is done in a very rapid way. So I think I got his papers on a Friday for a hearing on Monday. So no time to get an attorney. No, no time to file substantive papers.</p>
<p>But nevertheless, I did file file with the court by email. And the judge received my paper. And I copied, I emailed Moxon. And then he lied and said he never got it. You imagine? Here’s Moxon down in LA, and he’s going to fly up to San Francisco and then go across to Marin County. And he’s not going to check his emails? He’s just a liar. He’s done that, he’s a very crooked man. And he’s done that persistently in the litigation in which I’ve been involved with him.</p>
<p>In any case, the judge did not grant it. And to this date, that was in 2020. And to this date, the Scientologists have not come up to Canada, and attempted to extradite me or attempted to enforce their settlement agreement or their judgments, monetary judgments, against me, or their arrest warrants.</p>
<p>So and I have known this since I arrived here in 1997. And it’s obvious to me that they cannot get away with the criminal activity in [Canadian] court that they can get away with in the US, in fact, and that’s why they have not attempted to do it. The orders against me are unlawful. And there is no one has any duty to obey an unlawful order. And I feel completely confident in not obeying any of the orders that they have against me.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Well, I agree. And I will help you not obey unlawful orders.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
What you know, there have been, there have been people who’ve recognized this and, you know, have sought me out in order to have me violate their orders.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Yeah. I’m working in concert with Gerry Armstrong.</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
There you go!</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Alright, so are there any other things you’d like to say about about the tax exemption or anything else?</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Yes, the just to repeat, like that concerns, the freedom of religion so people can look at the way Scientology is violating freedom of religion, of people inside people outside by contract by religious arbitration, those sorts of things. They are notorious violators of freedom of religion. The second point is the extortion. What did, what had, Scientology been doing that with the federal government, with the IRS, previous to the deal? And then what did they get? So there’s two sides to that.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Right. What did they get by stopping? Right?</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
Right. And part of what they’ve got is a freedom to commit more violations of public policy. And the other thing is read over their submissions to the IRS. And if they had any knowledge of facts that are false in those submissions, then write them down, excerpt them, study them.</p>
<p>And that is a package of information, which can be assembled, presented to the US federal government, to legislation, and around the world. So other foreign governments and people and organizations around around the world they should know that Scientology committed crimes with US federal government acquiescence if not encouragement, in order to inform people in every nation of the world.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
All right then. There’s a wealth of information here. Gerry, thank you very much for being with us!</p>
<p>Gerry Armstrong<br />
You’re welcome. Have a great weekend. Over and out.</p>
<p>Alanzo<br />
Over and out.</p></blockquote>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Not long after Mark Rathbun started speaking publicly, it became obvious to me that he was part of a limited hangout scheme. Or, of course, he could have been kingpinning it. Mike Rinder joined him in the Scientology “opposition,” presenting themselves as benevolent warriors for truth and justice; as courageous correctors of the fraud, abuses and crimes they perpetrated or knew about from their Sea Org years; and as cult dictator David Miscavige’s nemeses. Rinder joined Rathbun in strict adherence to the limited hangout’s narrative, its doled-out admissions, and its withholding of key and damaging facts.</p>



<p>There are two essential matters that are to be ignored, lied about, side-stepped, withheld, perverted: The Silencing and Destroying (“S&amp;D”) of Gerry Armstrong; and, the unlawful obtaining of IRS tax exemption and US Government collusion. Within the limited hangout stratagem, the colluders must not admit to, or even acknowledge these matters. They must <em>never let it all hang out</em>. Rathubun and Rinder, et al. have never let it all hang out, ever since they first claimed that’s what they were doing.</p>



<p>These two matters are intimately intertwined, because my Fair Gaming, or S&amp;Ding, if truth be told about it, was a legal bar to the grant of IRS tax exemption in 1993; and it is a legal bar to the Miscavigeites retaining tax exemption in 2024. Making this collusion or conspiracy incestuous, and creating spooky human or divine drama, Rathun and Rinder were the two most prodigious participants, under Miscavige, of course, in <em>both</em> matters: in the now forty-two-year campaign to silence and destroy me; and in the Miscavigeites’ submissions to the IRS to get an utterly undeserved tax exemption. Their submissions included the most maleficent lies about me personally, plus put me in serious and undeserved jeopardy, which continues.</p>



<p>Even since Rathbun seemingly blew from the “opposition to Miscavige” and realigned himself with the Miscavigeite Scientologists, when Rathbun and Rinder have appeared to criticize each other publicly, they have not violated the limited hangout rules. In fact, it can be seen that the present configuration of Miscavige—Rathbun—Rinder acts to protect even more effectively what they have been protecting for decades: the truth about the Fair Gaming of Gerry Armstrong, and the truth about the lies to get IRS tax exemption and create a collusive relationship with the US Federal Government, which prejudices citizens everywhere.</p>



<p>Rathbun and Rinder were naturals to be selected to take over the “opposition to Miscavige” and establish and guide the limited hangout stratagem. Throughout their long careers in the Sea Org, including running intelligence operations, they were dedicated to never telling the truth that should be told. Hubbardite Scientology and now Miscavigeite Scientology can be seen as the extreme of limited hangouts, or the utter suppression of the truth that should be told, achieved in part by operations to silence or destroy would be truth tellers.</p>



<p>The controlling Scientologists gave the world fluff and lies, which they called acceptable truths. Telling the truth that should be told was Treason. Those who got away, like I did, and told some truth about their experiences or knowledge were to be silenced and destroyed. At the top of the Miscavigeites’ list of matters that cannot be talked about, that must be suppressed, are the same matters Rinder and his fellow limited hangouters in the “opposition to Miscavige” still withhold, still refuse to tell the truth about: Fair Gaming me, and the crooked IRS deal.</p>



<p>Rinder has never, to my knowledge, directly explained why he hasn’t told the truth about these matters. This reality has become progressively obvious, and the matters he hasn’t told the truth about have become increasingly clear and relevant. So has his cruelty. A number of other limited hangouters, however, have defended Rinder’s refusal to tell the truth about these matters, and have given different explanations or excuses for him.</p>



<p>The most common excuse is that the good he has done after leaving Miscavigeite Scientology outweighs whatever bad he did to anyone inside the cult; therefore, he gets a complete pass. No, there is no such real equation or relationship. There is, however, the real relationship created with this lame excuse. The inarguable explanation for his doing the good he is doing is that it shields him from doing anything about the two key matters that really matter: my Fair Gaming, and the collusion with the US Government to defraud the world.</p>



<p>Another routinely-tendered, thought-stopping excuse for Rinder refusing to tell the truth about what for years I’ve been asking him to tell the truth about is that he would risk being imprisoned and would put his family in jeopardy. The assumption is that he committed prosecutable criminal acts to silence and destroy me, and criminal acts to obtain undeserved IRS tax exemption and Government collusion. I wrote about this excuse in 2019:</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>I do not believe there would be any prosecution of Mike Rinder if he told the truth about his knowledge of what Scientology, Scientologists and their colluders did to wogs. The threat of prosecution is invented to give Rinder an excuse to not tell the truth.</p>



<p>He very well could be pilloried for not coming forward and telling the truth all these supposedly post-cult years, and that threat grows with each day he delays. But the likelihood of prosecution if he told the truth I think is zero.</p>



<p>On the other hand, if he continues to not tell the truth, and in fact still keeps the conspiracy against rights working, he really does risk prosecution if the conspirators are prosecuted. By law they should be. By just what they have done to silence or destroy me they could be. Except that the US Government, the US Intelligence Community and US courts have been so corrupted, they would be.<sup data-fn="c347fb80-fe56-4f96-bbef-b4c9a41f9f86" class="fn"><a href="#c347fb80-fe56-4f96-bbef-b4c9a41f9f86" id="c347fb80-fe56-4f96-bbef-b4c9a41f9f86-link">1</a></sup></p>

<p>Wikipedia quotes Victor Marchetti describing the limited hangout concept:</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>[It’s]spy jargon for a favorite and frequently used gimmick of the clandestine professionals. When their veil of secrecy is shredded and they can no longer rely on a phony cover story to misinform the public, they resort to admitting—sometimes even volunteering—some of the truth while still managing to withhold the key and damaging facts in the case. The public, however, is usually so intrigued by the new information that it never thinks to pursue the matter further. <sup data-fn="8fad9922-2148-4081-a1c6-18a87c2e22de" class="fn"><a href="#8fad9922-2148-4081-a1c6-18a87c2e22de" id="8fad9922-2148-4081-a1c6-18a87c2e22de-link">2</a></sup></p>



<p>That is what Rathbun and Rinder, and of course, their underlings or supporters, pulled off. “The public,” the media, the Scientology victims or opponents, were intrigued by the “new information” this pair of the Miscavigeite ex-execs were “divulging,” or claiming to be divulging, or being promoted by their fellow limited hangouters as divulging. Almost no one pursued the matters of their Fair Gaming of Gerry Armstrong, or their criminal actions and communications to get IRS tax exemption, which has victimized millions of people.</p>
</blockquote>



<p>The facts that Rathbun and Rinder dribbled out have largely concerned the felony allegation of human trafficking, which is virtually a bogus issue in relation to the Scientology cult. It is, however, important for the very limited hangout. The ridiculous fact is that under the law in the US as now interpreted or enforced, religionists in a religion can abuse each other, even batter each other, defraud each other, imprison each other, enslave each other, degrade each other, maybe even kill each other. And brother, that’s the free exercise of religion.</p>



<p>Standardly, and demonstrably, these antisocial or criminal actions are directed not at all evenly, Scientologist upon equal Scientologist. These religious exercises are ordered and carried out <em>down </em>Scientology’s “org board” hierarchically, from the dictator on high down through his cohort of sadistic enforcers, like Rathbun and Rinder, down to his cult’s myriad inferiors. Nobody drubs Miscavige, but the record of the drubbings he has delivered on his juniors, from his holy office of Ecclesiastical Poo-bah, is little short of gargantuan.</p>



<p>The US judge-made “law,” made for the Miscavigeite Scientologists, is that offenses that would be prosecutable in the US in the Wog World outside of Scientology control are just fine if committed inside the cult, <em>and</em> as long as these otherwise prosecutable actions are claimed and shown to be “doctrinally mandated.” In Hubbard’s millions of words of <em>scripture</em>, it is a very simple task to find Scientology doctrine that mandates the most evil and criminal of behavior of Miscavigeites on Miscavigeites, of senior religionists on juniors, of the flock head on his whole flock.</p>



<p>This is an idiotic and sick situation that is judicially permitted and non-actionable in the US, in part at least, because the underlings &#8212; the abused sheep &#8212; joined the lying, abusing religious cult <em>voluntarily</em>; or their parents <em>voluntarily</em> sacrificed them; and they stayed <em>voluntarily,</em> with “employment contracts” and Good Indicators (“GIs”), through years of such terrible treatment, which they observed, experienced, and might have even dealt out. I am all for Exscientologists getting justice for tortious or criminal treatment when they were Scientologists. It is a tortious, criminal, sadistic and diabolical organization into which many human victims are lured and trapped.</p>



<p>The campaign to silence and destroy me, however, is very different from Exscientologists’ human trafficking claims which stem from their maltreatment <em>inside </em>the cult. It is true that I was lied to, majorly by bricoleur Luciferian Ron Hubbard to join his cult. It is also true that after I joined, he and his cultists defrauded, abused, threatened, and betrayed me, and drove me to a life-and-death need to escape. The persons and entities perpetrating these evils are absolved of responsibility by the US Federal Government and its courts’ lunatic tack that permits, indeed encourages “religious” entities and their hierarchs to do such devilish perpetrating.</p>



<p>It is also easy to show in Scientology scripture that silencing and destroying wogs, Fair Gaming us, Black PRing us, ruining us, even murdering us, are doctrinally mandated. We wogs, however, did<em> not</em> volunteer to be “Suppressive Persons,” to be hated, threatened, assaulted, silenced and destroyed, smeared, beggared or murdered. That these crimes against wogs are doctrinally mandated does not create, so far, judicial defenses to our claims for the perpetrating Scientology entities or persons. In fact, the existence of policies, practices or orders in “scripture” that mandate such criminal or antisocial intentions or actions against wogs supports the claims of the victims.</p>



<p>It is true that the Miscavigeite Scientologists, with their skulks of lawyers and PIs, have many other tricks, sleazes and malfeasances and a billion dollars to rob their wog victims of wog justice. At least the perpetrators do not have the doctrinal mandate defense that they enjoy for defrauding and abusing their Scientologist victims inside their cult, so far.</p>



<p>I left the Hubbardite and Miscavigeites’ control, never to return, on December 12, 1981. Thereafter, I did not volunteer to be their subject, their defenseless punching bag, the victim of their functional sadistic personality disorder. In December 1986, to “settle” my claims in law against the Miscavigeites, for both pre-and post-December 12, 1981 torts, I gave my lawyer Mike Flynn <em>no authority</em> to sell me into legal or spiritual slavery to the Scientology slavers. I would not have given him such authority, but he never asked for it.</p>



<p>Such authorization never came up in our discussions because, rather than ask for my authorization for him to sell me into slavery to the Scientology slavers, he assured me, in multiple ways, that their settlement/slavery contract was “not worth the papers it’s printed on.” I had to sign the contract, not because I authorized its slavery conditions on me, but to have Fair Game end against <em>him</em>, and <em>everyone else</em>. His clear message to me was that the slavery conditions were so unconscionable, so diabolical, as I understood them to be, that they would never be judicially enforced, and the Scientologists would never attempt to judicially enforce them.</p>



<p>Mike Flynn is in an intertwined relationship with Mike Rinder in the limited hangout scheme’s two key verbotenedingen: the Gerry Armstrong Fair Gaming, which includes the slavery contract, and the lies to the IRS, about Flynn and me, of which there are plenty, that omitted any mention of slavery contracts or slavery. Slavery, as the Scientologists envisioned their contract, was their freedom to say anything about me or about anything else and my non-freedom to say anything about them or about anything they were saying anything about. Enforcing this ever-so-clever slaver-slave relationship and punishing any violation was a one-sided fifty-thousand dollar per utterance penalty, plus jail sentences and fines. See Fromm on sadism:</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>I propose that the core of sadism, common to all its manifestations, is <em>the passion to have absolute and unrestricted control over a living being, </em>whether an animal, a child, a man, or a woman. To force someone to endure pain or humiliation without being able to defend himself is one of the manifestations of absolute control, but it is by no means the only one. The person who has complete control over another living being makes this being into his thing, his property, while he becomes the other being’s god. Sometimes the control can even be helpful, and in that case we might speak of a benevolent sadism, such as one finds in instances where one person rules another for the other’s own good, and in fact furthers him in many ways, except that he keeps him in bondage. But most sadism is malevolent. Complete control over another human being means crippling him, choking him, thwarting him. Such control can have all forms and all degrees.<sup data-fn="e02d00ac-def2-4b61-8cfa-0384e68c0e05" class="fn"><a href="#e02d00ac-def2-4b61-8cfa-0384e68c0e05" id="e02d00ac-def2-4b61-8cfa-0384e68c0e05-link">3</a></sup> </p>
</blockquote>



<p>That is what the Scientologists have sought with me, complete control, crippling, choking, thwarting me. May all the Miscavigeites and all their collaborators end their sadistic passion and program to control me, to silence and destroy me and, I am convinced, thousands or millions of others. Let it all hang out. Let others let it all hang out.</p>

<p>Alanzo:</p>



<p>You ask, who gave Chris Shelton the task to dead agent me? You’re referring to his attack on me that I responded to <a href="https://gerryarmstrong.ca/chris-shelton-logic-and-loyalty-on-the-line/">here&nbsp;</a>.</p>



<p>It’s black PR, of course, not dead agent. “Dead agent” is the debunking or refuting of liars and lies. “Black PR” is the lies that DAing debunks. It could be said that I DAed Hubbard, and that I DAed Scientology, and I DAed Shelton when he published a pile of black PR on me, wow, almost ten years ago. My deepest view at this time in my life is that God does the DAing, and I type His Words, as accurately as I can.</p>



<p>Two related behavioral traits of the Scientology cultists sent to handle up-speaking wogs like us; of the Miscavigeites’ academics hired to handle people like us; and of the persons you know who run the “controlled opposition” and do their damnedest to handle people like you and me, are <em>pretended ignorance</em> of pertinent facts and <em>pretended knowledge</em> that they do not possess. These are, clearly, regressive tribal behaviors.</p>



<p>A person cannot ever be himself if he never stops pretending to be someone else. That is, pretending ignorance of what he knows, and pretending knowledge of what he doesn’t. While the Scientologists claim to be becoming their real or basic selves, and sell that “EP” for big bucks, they actively prevent themselves, and anyone they can recruit, from ever <em>being</em> themselves. And they do it by, inter alia, requiring and enforcing faked ignorance and faked knowledge.</p>



<p>Here, the pretense is for demonstrably antisocial goals: put down others and elevate oneself over them. That is the essence of <em>malignant narcissism</em>. The pretended humility bolsters the narcissism: “I don’t know everything,” “I’m still learning,” “I’m not saying I’m perfect.” You know the drill.</p>



<p>Shelton’s next, uncatastrophic step (may I C/S?) is <em>introspection</em>, or <em>meditation</em>, not the petty strategies he employs, like “ignore-tech,” to appear above his targets’ morality, intelligence, humanity and persons. Those strategies are catastrophic, although to their appliers they seem to be the winning battle tactics.</p>



<p>This set of DAed people – Hubbard, Miscavige, the Scientologist coconspirators, the PIs, the lawyers, the “academics,” Shelton, etc. – have had before them for many years two choices: repentance or poor loserism. They have all been poor losers, and it has lost them even more to be poor losers about. I wrote about poor loserism in an August 2009 letter “To Mark Rathbun: Help on Black PR.”</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>Everybody knows Scientology and Scientologists do what bullies do. When they lose, they always act the part of poor losers. They’re always hoping that one more piece of black PR believed by one more fooled person about the guy who successfully stood up to them will make their losing disappear. And it’s true; for a second it can seem to work. If black PR is dragged through time to keep it working, of course, it becomes sociopathy.</p>



<p>Poor losers also hope and pray for something evil to befall the person who stood up to them, which, in their minds, in many instances, is all it takes to win against them. That is why, since Scientologists universally sense that more black PR won’t work, 27+ years of black PR having failed (except notably with the IRS, of course), and since they refuse to dump poor loser tech, the threat of assassination has never been higher. There are some awfully gargantuan illusions on the line here. It would be beneficial to Scientologists and to their wog targets that they be taught and learn to be something different from poor losers, especially with all the losing they’re facing in their future.</p>



<p>[…]</p>



<p>[Hubbard] wasn’t lying, by the way, when he stated that anyone engaging in black propaganda is either using a wrong way to right a wrong or confessing he can’t make it in open competition. Hubbard and Scientology and Scientologists have never engaged in their black PR campaigns on me to wrongly right any real wrong. Therefore Scientology and Scientologists all confess that they can’t make it in open competition. If they would take that one Hubbard datum to heart it would be a very good start. Scientologists must teach and learn something different from poor loserism, and if it can’t be applied in Scientology they should become wogs.</p>



<p>It is clear that you don’t do anything about the black PR you manufactured on me because you are still invested in obtaining the result it brings, including the result achieved with the IRS. I think it would be good to honestly review your investment in Hubbard, in Scientology and in the results of your application of Scientology to SPs like me. In fact I think if any Scientologist and anyone else involved in the Scientology conflict would honestly review their investments in the same things, a great good could now occur.<sup data-fn="97b9e0ab-89b1-41fa-8894-b63774172976" class="fn"><a href="#97b9e0ab-89b1-41fa-8894-b63774172976" id="97b9e0ab-89b1-41fa-8894-b63774172976-link">1</a></sup></p>
</blockquote>



<p>The people who tasked or incited Shelton to black PR me undoubtedly say or pretend that they are, and he is, DAing my lies, DAing me. They don’t acknowledge that they’re black propagandizing, and serving the Miscavigeites’ purposes. The picture they paint of me is a Xenu-level SP and liar, the son of perdition, deserving all the DAing I get.</p>



<p>Those taskers, however, were getting Shelton to black PR me, lie about me, not DA me. He was a person who was willing to black PR me to be solidly in the tribe, and the leaders desired him in the tribe because he was willing to do so. I was a person he was given to target. And I am used to DA his black PR, to reflect his invective. You get the same hat. Wear it well.</p>



<p>For several years, I have known or sensed that the controlled opposition persons and group had a membership requirement that everyone hate me and act inimically toward me. You have been in a similar relationship or condition for several years.</p>



<p>It’s the same spooky way that all the Exscientologists or Ex-Sea Organs viewed me all the years they were inside, in both the Hubbard-headed cult and the Miscavige cult. If a knowledgeable Scientologist granted me credence, meaning <em>receptively</em> read what I’ve written or <em>receptively</em> listened to what I’ve said, or was even <em>suspected</em> of granting me such credence, he would be in Ethics in a blowdown.</p>



<p>The same phenomenon exists in all tribes to varying degrees, I would think; although an untribal tribe is conceivable. And it is possible to be untribal in some tribes, and even in conflict with one’s tribal leaders, and still be tribe members. Not in Scientology, however, and not in Shelton’s obvious current tribe.</p>



<p>Scientology’s system for spotting and “handling” disaffection, doubt or the faintest blush of BIs is just so totalitarian in “Free World” society, and so astonishingly well-documented. Huge sets of red, green and blue printed volumes, years of recorded lectures, and an Internet full of “secret” and “unsecret” docs, evidence this paranoid and extremist system. The results from decades of application of the tech and policies of Scientology, Hubbard and Miscavige are freely available.</p>



<p>On its side of the scale, the Scientology system is a learning tool, relatively safe, and a stupendous example of a wrong way to happiness. Although value can be derived from the experience or knowledge of Scientology, just as the experience or knowledge of prison can have value, it is utterly unnecessary, just like prison.</p>



<p>The tribe’s leaders don’t even have to tell a new joiner whom to attack and not grant credence to. That can be picked up by their black PR on their target &#8212; as a psychotic, a fruitcake, a sellout, a criminal, a war monger, and by observing the tribe leaders’ treatment of their target.</p>



<p>Getting someone to attack another is known to create in the manipulated or directed underling tribe member a psychological hold that is difficult to escape. As early as possible, Scientologists indoctrinate their recruits in the SP doctrine and get them to hate and attack a whole class of persons, the SPs. And SPs are, de facto, whomever the tribal head says.</p>



<p>They are, overwhelmingly, largely among the more conscienceful human beings, and many are already among the Scientology cultists’ notable victims. Thus, getting Scientologists to hate and attack these individuals and this religious class is truly satanic.</p>



<p>So, who gave Shelton the task to black PR me, or black PR you? It was <em>command intention</em> inside Miscavigeite Scientology, and it is <em>command intention</em> inside the controlled opposition. Jesse Prince described this command intention in the Miscavigeite hierarchy: “It was required protocol to hate and contribute to the destruction of men and women that I had never met or laid eyes on” &#8212;  like me. <sup data-fn="d2071ad9-8d6b-4b79-827a-448e482e5b83" class="fn"><a href="#d2071ad9-8d6b-4b79-827a-448e482e5b83" id="d2071ad9-8d6b-4b79-827a-448e482e5b83-link">2</a></sup></p>



<p>Shelton is now a bigger brave in a smaller tribe with the same required protocol.</p>



<p>Command Intention has been accurately defined as “the desires and orders of the person in charge of Scientology.” These desires and orders toward Hubbard’s and Miscavige’s targets are to silence or destroy us, that is, to reduce our images to beast level, to just go all the way in and obliterate us, or otherwise fair game us to death.</p>



<p>Command intention can also be the desires and orders of the person, or persons, in charge of any group, any cult, any police force, any army, any nation. Command intention in Scientology toward Command’s targets, however, is axiomatically antisocial, indeed criminal, being to conspire against these human targets’ rights and persons.</p>



<p>The “Code of a Sea Org Member states: “I promise to uphold, forward and carry out, Command Intention.” And all Scientologists’ “Code of Honor” states: “Never fear to hurt another in a just cause.” It is also axiomatic in Scientology, if not to every Scientologist, that Scientology is the most just of just causes.</p>



<p>The tribalists that Shelton is united with in their black PR narrative, must be the people he says are putting their shoulders to the same wheel as he is. Expecting me to put my shoulder to their wheel, which they’re using to crush me, is way silly. For God&#8217;s sake, I got busy and found a better wheel.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On November 3, I posted on open letter to “Americans,” which I titled “<a href="https://gerryarmstrong.ca/the-best-gaza-solution-money-can-buy/">The Best Gaza Solution Money Can Buy</a>.” I sent it, with <a href="https://gerryarmstrong.ca/there-once-was-a-gazan/">cover letters</a>, to US President Biden, Secretary of State Blinken, Canada Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and to a few other people and entities that I thought should get it.</p>
<p>Now it is reported by many outlets, unchallenged as far as I can see, that the Gazan population has lost another twelve thousand. Killing more Gazans, however, should not be used to reduce the total that, in my solution, the US would pay to them, or what it would cost to house and take care of this tired, poor, huddled, freedom-yearning mass of newly-made Gazan expat millionaires in America. That would be morally reprehensible and utterly unjustified. It would green-light mass murder for profit, which, although the capitalist way of life, doesn’t fit with the actually humanitarian/holy goal of saving as many Gazan lives as possible. And saving those lives would save US, Israeli and the world’s souls.</p>
<p>So, accepting the base figure I proposed almost two months ago of US $2,366,259,000,000, if there are now 12,000 fewer Gazans, it would mean that each Gazan alive today would receive $1,005,097. If the Israelis kill every Gazan but one, then that one would get the whole two trillion, three hundred sixty-six billion, two hundred fifty-nine million dollars. Otherwise, the US and Israel would be incentivized to kill as many Gazans as they can to save a few bucks.</p>
<p>Because everyone is on the money standard, of course, if there are any really bad and greedy Gazans among the population of two million, three hundred fifty-four thousand, two hundred fifty-nine, these baddies could be incited to kill as many of their own compatriots as they can to get a bigger slice for themselves from the living Gazans’ US-baked cabbage pie. Such egregiously greedy Gazans &#8212; wouldn’t you know it &#8212; share the same goal of profiteering from death as the US and Israeli masters of war. So the whole world must watch who’s killing whom and do the math.</p>
<p>In any case, a million US dollars and a house in the Catskills, or Palm Beach, or some other American holy place, should satisfy even the baddest of the bad Gazans, and give them a real shot, relatively unpressured, at turning their lives around. It sure is better than being bombed into obliteration. But even a gazillion dollars might never satisfy the bigtime profiteers, the world’s Nongazans who build the bombs, tag the targets, hide behind the walls and the desks, and glory in it all. They will always be needing more gazillions to build more bombs, tag more targets, mint more medals. But at least there’ll be nobody left in Gaza to tag or bomb. They’ll all be as safe and happy as the rest of America’s millionaires.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is an email my wife Caroline and I received November 6 from “AnonEF” advising me of a book about me, an “unauthorized biography,” set to drop in 2024:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">From: True Facts anonexposingfakes@</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;">Sent: Monday, November 6, 2023 1:06 PM</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;">To: gerry@; caroline@</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;">Subject: Gerry Armstrong Book Release 2024</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Mr. Armstrong</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Are you aware of an unauthorized biography being written about your personal affairs in Canada, your time in Scientology as a clerk, and your sincere love for sociopath, Putin? Now that we see the true psychopathic nature of Putin against the West, and Ukraine, do you regret sending the Russian President such a self-serving, ludicrous letter? Do you condone Russian troops raping and torturing women, children, carrying out executions and committing other war crimes today?</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">AnonEF</span></p>
<p>I’ve posted this and three subsequent emails from AnonEF, and three email responses from me at: <a href="https://gerryarmstrong.ca/subject-re-fw-gerry-armstrong-book-release-2024/">https://gerryarmstrong.ca/subject-re-fw-gerry-armstrong-book-release-2024/</a></p>
<p>There have been no further “biography”-related communications as of this date, December 10.</p>
<p>Who or what “AnonEF” is or are, or the other persons she/it/he/they say are participating in this op, I don’t know. If there is any reality to the scheme and threat to publish a <em>book</em> about me, which they signal or boast here to be highly defamatory, then there are a great number of people involved. So, I’ll use they/them/their, etc. for now.</p>
<p>Whether <em>The Gerry Armstrong Book</em> (“<em>TGAB</em>”) is a real near-complete book draft of a real book, really about to be published in 2024, or these agents, AnonEF, et al., are just making empty threats to mess with my head and suck up my time and life like vampires, this is an intelligence operation, with covert and overt facets. AnonEF do not communicate to me without operational direction and approval, nor without an approved program based on an approved evaluation. If it’s AI, it’s on a program based on a program.</p>
<p>This email series by AnonEF, et al. is similar in vector, vein, thinking, phrasing, and “evidence” to a diabolical attack last year that appeared initially in an online publication <em>The European Times</em>. In response to that attack, I wrote a book, not yet published, which I gave the working title <em>As God is My Client</em>. The following are the first few pages from that book:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">This began as a response to a March 6, 2022 article “How the anti-cult movement has participated to fuel Russian anti-Ukraine rethoric (sic),” published by <em>The European Times</em>, an online “news” site. The article is extremely dishonest and incendiary, essentially blaming people it labels “anti-cultists” for “propaganda” that caused the current Russia-Ukraine conflict. The entire article is Appendix A following this response. It incites the incitable to hate and attack these “anti-cultists.”</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">The article <em>names</em> just three individuals it says are in this “movement:” my Russian friend Dr. Alexander Leonidovich Dvorkin, reportedly deceased Serbian neuropsychiatrist Dr. Bratislav Petrovic, and me. The article portrays this anti-cultist movement as war-mongering and evil, and ranks me as one of its three most evil people. The article identifies the movement as “pan-European;” but I am not, and have never been, “European;” although, admittedly, I have been to Europe. Because Dr. Petrovic cannot possibly be mongering war anywhere, the article actually ranks me as one of the <em>two</em> most evil people in this Europe-wide movement. I am not, and have never been, an “anti-cultist,” nor an “anti-cult movementist.”</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">The “author” of this black propaganda, or “black PR,” piece is a “Jan Leonid Bornstein,” identified on the site as “an investigative reporter for <em>The European Times</em>.” If Bornstein is not a fake person, and not female, <em>he</em> certainly is a fake investigative reporter, as the rational world construes the job title and understands the actions and standards for actual <em>investigative reporting</em>. He did not contact me, either before or after his article was published, although I have always been readily reachable. His lies about me are willful because the truth underlying them is easily and freely accessible. If he is real, Bornstein presents as pathologically biased, and venomous.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><em>The European Times</em> is one entity in an international network of persons and entities united in their hatred and vilification of “anti-cultists” &#8212; whoever they are. An accurate and useful designation for this network is the “Anti-Anti-Cultists,” or the “AAC.” AACists pigeonhole critics or opponents of abuses or crimes perpetrated by religious or secular cults into the AAC’s contrived and demonized “anti-cult movement.”</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">AAC network members pretend to be linked by their defense of “religious liberty,” but this is largely a sham that facilitates their malign campaign against persons they class and call “anti-cultists.” The network’s current and visible key components, from my perspective, are the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (“USCIRF”), et al., Scientology, et al., and everyone else among the many Anti-Anti-Cultist persons or entities.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">USCIRF is a US Federal Agency, which states on its web site: “Our mission is to advance international freedom of religion or belief, by independently assessing and unflinchingly confronting threats to this fundamental right.” <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20250708094119/https://www.uscirf.gov/">https://www.uscirf.gov/</a> The “<em>et al</em>.” necessarily includes the whole US Federal Government, particularly the US Intelligence Community (“USIC”), because the mission of the USCIRF must dovetail with the mission of the whole Government. There has been no public statement that I am aware of by any other sector or official of the Government to contradict the USCIRF’s positions – on “cults,” “anti-cultists,” or me.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">Scientology in the AAC network is the central, largest, wealthiest, most malevolent, and well-connected Scientology sect. It is often referred to as “the cult,” because of its size and malevolence, and because its chosen “form of organization,” or business model, is <em>cult</em>. I was a member inside this cult for twelve and a half years. L. Ron Hubbard invented Scientology, started it as a pseudoscientific cult, and over time added religious trappings and made it more cultish, indeed more invidiously cultish.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">David Miscavige, who has been the sect’s head since Hubbard’s death in 1986, runs it from the US, and has maintained its “org form” as <em>cult</em>. His form of <em>management</em> of his cult is <em>dictatorship</em>, which is possibly the most extremely culty management form or style. Theologically and properly, those Scientologists Miscavige controls are “Miscavigeites.” There are people who call themselves “Scientologists” but are not in Miscavige’s cult or under his control. They generally identify as “Independent Scientologists.”</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">The “<em>et al</em>.” attached to the Miscavigeite cult includes a raft of collaborating paid and unpaid “wogs,” as the Scientologists of all sects call Homo sapiens or human beings. Hubbard taught and the Scientologists teach that they are a brand-new, Scientology-created, superior <em>species</em> in the genus Homo: “<em>Homo novis</em>” or “<em>Homo scientologicus.</em>” The Miscavigeites have paid and pay enormous sums to wog lawyers, private investigators, intelligence agents, academics, lobbyists, etc. The Miscavigeites also have lawyers, PIs, intel operatives, lobbyists, and even academics who are their own cult followers they call “Scientologists in-good-standing.” “Wog” is a hate term equivalent to “nigger.” The Miscavigites have so far refused to remove this word from their “scripture” and their everyday communications.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">“Scripture,” according to the Miscavigeites’ legal statements, is everything Hubbard wrote or said on the subject of Scientology. A great percentage of the whole body of scripture is unpublished and secret. There is a long history of Scientology’s secret scriptural documents or audio recordings being leaked and published. The Miscavigeites claim that Hubbard’s words, his scripture and the policies, terms, procedures and goals and promises they contain cannot be altered; but this is untrue. Miscavige can have anything in Scientology scripture or practices changed that he wishes, because the cult is a dictatorship, and he is dictator. Although Hubbard decreed in scripture that “policy” in Scientology is always senior to “orders,” Miscavige’s orders trump Hubbard’s policies.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">The AACists classify Miscavigeite Scientology as a “New Religious Movement” or “NRM.” This is an amorphous term and categorization that Anti-Anti-Cultist persons and entities use for whitewashing religious groups committing fraud, abuses, crimes, injustices, human rights violations, etc., and for assailing critics or victims of these groups’ iniquities. In their literature, the AACists define “NRM” as any “religious group” with “modern origins,” without regard to these groups’ teachings, actions or morality. NRMs comprise a contrived class from the benign to the most malignant. <em>The</em> <em>European Times</em>, its Editor-in-Chief and Director Dr. Petar Gramatikov, and Bornstein, who are clear Anti-Anti-Cultist networkers, deploy the NRM figment in the subject article on people they target as “anti-cultists,” like me.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><em>The European Times</em>/Bornstein article is about two thousand six hundred words, six hundred or so of which are a smear of me personally entitled “Gerry Amstrong’s love letters to Putin.” The AACists have had The European Times site publish the same article in thirty-nine languages that I have found so far: English, French, Italian, Russian, Corsican, Maltese, Dutch, Swedish, Danish, Kurdish, Spanish, Lithuanian, Turkish, Catalan, Slovenian, Basque, Norwegian, Bosnian, Galician, Scots-Gaelic, Irish, Luxembourgish, Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, German, Greek, Polish, Chinese, Japanese, Latvian, Swahili, Kyrgyz, Haitian-Creole, Arabic, Amharic, Hebrew, Yiddish and Ukrainian. The article is defamatory in every language. Whatever libel the Anti-Anti-Cultists have concocted, they have willfully clicked many buttons to spread it worldwide. Following the article’s publication, The European Times/Gramatikov kept it prominently advertised in their “Must Read” and “Editor’s Choice” features.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">In their article’s first paragraph, the AACists stake out their position, their message that they want the world to get:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 80px;">Since [ ] 2014, [ ] the pan-European Anti-cult movement, led by the European Federation of Centers of Research and Information on Sectarianism (FECRIS), has been participating in the Russian propaganda machine that finally led to the current war.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">The Anti-Anti-Cultists also claim that “the Anti-cult movement in general, and FECRIS in particular, is linked to nationalistic and pro-war propaganda across Europe.” In my case, this is utterly false and, as concocted, published and promoted, persistently threatening. This is as the AACists intend it to be. If they do not intend it to be false; if they do not intend it to be threatening; if they do not intend all their falsehoods to be false; if they do not intend that their black PR and lies harm their targets; if they do not intend but are just <em>pretending</em> their palpable hatred toward their targets, the AACists can speak up and show how they are or were honestly ignorant, and really and truly knew not what they were doing.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">The AACists republished the same black propaganda article on another of their web sites: “European Federation for Freedom of Belief (FOB)” (“EFFB”).<strong><br />
</strong>https://freedomofbelief.net/articles/how-the-anti-cult-movement-has-participated-to-fuel-russian-anti-ukraine-rhetoric</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">EFFB calls itself “a Federation of Associations that advocate freedom of thought, religion and belief.” This Federation added their own libel to the article:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 80px;">[W]e publish this article taken from <em>The Europe Times</em> (sic) by Jan Leonid Bornstein, which illustrates the role of the anti-cult movement in fomenting intolerance and division between religions, cultures and peoples.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 80px;">Trusting in a rapid cessation of the conflict, we hope that the factors threatening a free and peaceful coexistence of peoples will be removed at the root, and among them the nefarious anti-cult movement.</p>
<p>A slew of AAC persons and entities, including the US Commission on International Religious Freedom, et al. have helped spread <em>The European Times’</em> black PR article, and its evil message. It is inconceivable that in their new dastardly operation AnonEF, et al. are serving the purposes of some person or entity <em>outside</em> the <em>Anti-Anti-Cultists</em> global network-cum-criminal-conspiracy. If any AACist can shed any exculpatory light on this operation, I’m all eyes.</p>
<p>Since 1981, the Scientology cultists, first the Hubbardites and then the Miscavigeites, have never stopped hating and attacking me, strategically or otherwise, as a major enemy. They have run a continuous chain of operations targeting me, which have involved easily a hundred agents and other intelligence personnel, inhouse and outhouse. Their overarching and unyielding goal, by whatever means they could get away with, has always been to silence or destroy me.</p>
<p>They’ve prostrated courts of justice to achieve these criminal ends, and have campaigned relentlessly to shudder me into silence or destroy me with threat and black PR. The Miscavigeites seek my destruction reputationally, relationally, financially, psychologically, and physically. My principal worldly defense has been to simply not be silenced and not be destroyed, but to continue to speak up with the truth behind the lies of the Scientologists and their collaborators, as I am doing here. My other-worldly defense is God Himself, for Whom I speak up.</p>
<p>There is a conceivable jurisprudential reason and advantage for the persons behind this real or fake poison book operation to have me notified that they are about to publish my “unauthorized biography.” It is also understandable as legal strategy that they let me know pre-publication the book’s tenor, its villainy, and that they are making such a nebulous thing as “such a letter” sent to such a person as Vladimir Putin, President of such a country as Russia, such a central focus in this “biography.”</p>
<p>Beyond legal case preparation, the vilification, threat and vampirism inherent in AnonEF’s notifying email and interrogatory, and in the follow-up emails, are bonuses to the vilifiers, threateners and vampires. In this, the litigation generation, an operation of this magnitude, with claimed multiple editors, multiple writers, claimed knowledge of my time in Scientology, has to also include a skulk of lawyers. And, oh, Canada, where my personal affairs take up every minute of my every day, there must be a pack of lawyers billing big hours. Even if it’s mere vilification, threat, duping delight, and a big suck job with no book, it cannot be unassumed there is a mob of AAC lawyers.</p>
<p>Slouching or stechschritting toward their “ideal scene,” which Miscavigeites universally hold as their lodestar, it is standard practice, as Hubbard commanded in Scientology scripture, for them to keep the source of their black PR attacks hidden. This is accomplished here by AnonEF, et al. being anonymous, by shielding the “writer/s,” et al., by garden-variety cult-style lying, and by common cowardice.</p>
<p>Another continual action by the Miscavigeites to attain an ideal scene in their war on people like me is to get <em>others</em> to do the warring, the black PRing, the suing, the silencing or the destroying. Such Miscavigeite-serving attackers can be ostensibly unconnected wogs, or “independent” Scientologists seemingly not under Miscavige’s control. With this strategy, which is commanded in their scripture, the Miscavigeites generate the illusion, including among themselves, that there are all sorts of people or groups, who hate me and accuse me of all sorts of evils, and are available for blaming if harm or death befalls me.</p>
<p>When I started communicating openly online, the Miscavigeites posted some inflammatory racist posts over my name, obviously to incite the people incited by such things, or who could pretend to be incited, and to shudder me into folding my tent and silently stealing away. A number of people in the group or network of “opponents” of Scientology antisociality or criminality have also been serving the Miscavigeites’ purposes by smearing and marginalizing me.</p>
<p>In a sporting competition, a controlled opposition is a <em>fix</em>, and a crime. In an intelligence organization, a controlled opposition is an ideal scene, worked toward assiduously, and protected if built. Miscavigeite Scientologists and their collaborators function as an intelligence organization, not as a sports team. In scripture, Hubbard called this condition “Pan-determinism,” the control of both sides of a game, or a controversy, or a lawsuit, or a war. In Scientology, being pan-determined is an <em>ideal scene</em>.</p>
<p>Over the past few years, the Miscavigeites’ have developed a new front in their long war on me personally, which fields other wog or apparently wog elements in the AAC. Largely, the sniping and the “standard wartime propaganda” has been from an accumulation of Anti-Anti-Cultist “academics.” It’s a severe mismatch, as the world sees it, and I have batted back their paper volleys as I could. In fact, and in theme and syntax, this series of emails from “AnonEF” about <em>The Gerry Armstrong Book</em> sounds a lot like one of these AAC academics who has already published some scholarly, passably-citationed shots at me.</p>
<p>Obviously, the AACists did what they could to get <em>The European Times</em>/Bornstein article they crafted into the right hands and minds of persons who could produce the evil they postulated. The AACists want two live named individuals, Alexander Dvorkin and me, blamed, hated, vilified, silenced or destroyed for fueling “Russian anti-Ukraine rhetoric;” for participating “in the Russian propaganda machine that finally led to the current war;” for spreading “pro-war propaganda across Europe;” and for an assortment of other atrocities.</p>
<p>The AACists put in a lot of visible work to achieve their evil purpose: write the twenty-six hundred word black PR piece, as if from an “investigative reporter;” translate it into thirty-nine languages; publish all those translations; disseminate the article and get others to disseminate it. There is no way the AACists did not work just as hard <em>invisibly</em> or <em>covertly</em> to get this black PR to very dangerous persons and groups with worldly power, who have been looking for just the kind of people the AACists describe and name. That is why the AACists describe me as they do. These persons and groups to whom the AACists falsely fingered me are looking for people as the AACists describe me to silence or destroy us.</p>
<p>There is no way on God’s green earth that the AACists didn’t feed their lies about Dvorkin and me to Myrotvorets, a Ukrainian site that black-lists or kill-lists, for arrest or assassination, Russian “collaborators” or “enemies of Ukraine.”  <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myrotvorets">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myrotvorets</a>.<u><br />
</u>There is no way in hell the AACists haven’t fired off their “investigative report,” and all kinds of revilement-compelling documentation, to inflame all sorts of EU politicians, the Security Service of Ukraine (“SBU”), The Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine (“GUR”), to NATO, et al., etc.</p>
<p>I just read a <em>Washington Post</em> article “Ukrainian spies with deep ties to CIA wage shadow war against Russia,” <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20240626171609/https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2023/10/23/ukraine-cia-shadow-war-russia/">https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2023/10/23/ukraine-cia-shadow-war-russia/</a> which paints a fairly clear but unastonishing picture of the CIA/USIC equipping, training, directing and using the GUR and the SBU in their operations against “enemies of Ukraine.” The AACists have been portraying me since at least last year as an enemy of Ukraine, indeed an enemy of everyone, a fomenter of intolerance and division between religions, cultures and peoples, a clearly despicable misanthrope. The AACists’ AnonEF, et al. portray me the same way now in the book promo snippet they sent: an enemy of Ukraine; an enemy of everyone, of all the world’s peacefully coexisting peoples – peoples who would never condone raping and torturing women and children, or murder, or condone rapists, torturers or murderers. AnonEF, et al. characterize me as a monstrously despicable human being, worth writing about just because I’m so monstrously despicable.</p>
<p>AAC personnel would certainly have advised their CIA contacts, or handlers, et al. of certain events; but it is well understood that the USICers posess virtually everything every other nation’s intelligence agencies possess, plus everything e-else, and then some. USICers know who I am, and have known who I am since the 1980’s, years before they created USCIRF.</p>
<p>They know &#8212; thousands upon thousands of USIC officials possess this knowledge &#8212; that I was inside a great American evil in the 1970s; that I spoke up about my experiences and knowledge of that evil, including to elements of the USIC; that the great evil made me its enemy; that for a mess of pottage the USICers cut a deal with that evil; that as parts of the putrid pottage deal the evil ceased its war on US Government officials and entities, i.e., the USIC, et al, and the USICers made me <em>their</em> enemy; that the USICers made the evil their asset; that I spoke up about the dirty deal and the dirty dealers, as again I’m doing here.</p>
<p>For some time now, I’ve thought and written a bit about the idea that when the USICers cut the deal with the Miscavigeites in the early 1990s, the country lost its soul. I’m assuming, of course, that there is such a thing as a nation’s soul, and that it can be lost, or ignored, or suppressed, or depraved. I’m also assuming that a soulless nation can refind its soul, and attend and honor it. This would be national repentance, or a truth and reconciliation commission.</p>
<p>Probably the US was losing whatever soul it had had, bit by bit, bomb by bomb, war by war, dollar by dollar, billionaire by billionaire, pauper by pauper since World War II. But the Scientology deal has a special immorality to it, a deal not just with business crooks about money, but with Satanic Luciferian cultist business crooks. The deal was about money, certainly, but also, and pivotally, about the cultists’ demonic and criminal drive to silence or destroy truth tellers and the truth.</p>
<p>The USICers had all the information I had, and mountains more. They possessed and possess the mass and quality of information that it is expected the US’s intelligence agencies, departments, bureaus, etc. have collected ever since Hubbard started up his first organization, a mental health practice, not yet a religion. Giving the Miscavigeites IRS tax exemption also gave them a pile more money, an easier more alluring means to make billions from rich supporters, and a license to get away with the things that should have prohibited the cult from getting tax exemption. The USICers knew what they were doing, knew what they were unleashing, and knew on whom the Miscavigeites were doing these exemption-proscribing things.</p>
<p>In addition to their fat files on me going back more than forty years, the USICers have been getting my e-communications to and from anywhere in the world for the last thirty years. They know that I am not the despicable individual the Scientologists and other AACists are telling them and the rest of the world I am. USICers know that what the Miscavigeite Scientologists, et al. submitted to the IRS/USIC to obtain tax exemption and official US Federal Government protection and promotion, contained some very sick lies about me, about my lawyer, about other victims of the Scientologists, and about organization structure, policies, practices and actions. These false statements were clearly material. Even if the Government protests that, oh no, it’s just more gratuitous Scientology black PR, i.e., more lies, these statements are material for that purpose. There is no way in the universe of reality that the USICers believed the Miscavigeites’ lies so sincerely that they didn’t even check with a simple phone call.</p>
<p>For the Miscavigeites telling all these lies in their submissions to the Government, which itself is a crime, the USIC, et al. rewarded them. With decades of documents, experience, court rulings, and competence, the USICers knew the Miscavigeites lies are lies, in fact, it is reasonable to conclude that the USICers <em>required</em> the lies told. This collusion created a mutual pan-determination condition, the kind that exists between formerly rival criminal gangs, or between a bent police force and a racket, or between the State and an antisocial religion.</p>
<p>USICers, et al. with a microclue know that the idea of me condoning the rape and torture of women and children, or murder, is deranged and dangerous. Asking whether I condone these crimes conveys the idea that the askers, the multiple biography editors and writers, et al. have arrived at this point in their <em>Gerry Armstrong Book</em> program &#8212; where a whole book about me is near completion; where a lot of content appearing in several of the beginning chapters is from my writings; where a major section of the book details my time wearing some clerk hat in Hubbardite Scientology; where my personal affairs in Canada are also bookworthy – and none of them, none of the editors, writers, etc., have sleuthed out or stumbled on the answer to this headscratcher.</p>
<p>I am quite certain the AnonEFers are not terribly intellectually challenged as they act. They have other challenges, I’m sure, but their intelligence quotients are not their stumbling blocks, or their excuses for their actions so far. It is understood that AnonEF, et al. could be only acting, as Scientologists pretty well universally do, or intelligence agents pretty well have to do. The flaunted obsession with me could be fake, but even faking obsession could be obsessive. That the AnonEFers call themselves “anonexposingfakes” actually adds weight to the proposition that they are the fakes in this fairy tale book.</p>
<p>Having me overtly, covertly, and falsely portrayed as a beast, as a cause of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, and as the root of threats to a free and peaceful coexistence of peoples obviously serves the USICers’ purposes. Otherwise, one would think, they would have it knocked off and invited me and given me safe passage to the US to provide my experience and knowledge. They’re the intelligence of America and Americans, but they’re stuck in this pretense of ignorance, which is really stupid, and bloody dangerous. None of them are unstickable, as far as I know; just smarten up. They are all called, of course &#8212; the Scientologists, the wogs, the AACists, the USICers – to end their false portrayals of me and others similarly falsely portrayed, and end their condonation of this nasty practice. This task would smarten them up in a hurry.</p>
<p>In the playbooks of Miscavige’s myrmidons and their collaborators, the infliction of harm on their “enemies,” like Dr. Dvorkin and me, is a point of honor. They want me dead. The Miscavigeites, et al. do understand, however, that virtually every country or society on earth considers this intention and behavior criminal; therefore, the Miscavigeites very rarely publicly boast about harming, silencing or destroying people. They know, and the rest of the AACists, including the US <em>Intelligence</em> Community, know that what the Miscavigeite Scientologists are doing to persons like Dvorkin and me is unjustified, unlawful and unconscionable.</p>
<p>The US Federal Government <em>gave</em> the Miscavigeites tax exemption and special benefits and protections <em>because</em> they were, and are, in continual violation of public policy. The US did <em>not</em> give the Miscavigeites tax exemption and special benefits and protections because they were <em>not </em>violating public policy, as US Law requires tax-exempt organizations like Scientology not do. If, to Americans and their Government, as long as it’s the Miscavigeite Scientologists doing these things &#8212; black propaganda, frame-ups, perjury, deprivation of rights, incitement to murder – they are <em>not </em>violations of public policy, then God help them.</p>
<p>In truth, the Miscavigeites’ violations of public policy are not excused or mitigated because they say their violations are motivated by <em>religious </em>doctrine. They are rendered more egregious, in fact, just because the perpetrating organizationists sought, and still seek, to defend their public policy-violating actions in the name of “religion.” Because of the special benefits the US has given the Miscavigeite Scientologists, including a green light to silence or destroy citizens like me, the cult is the de facto state religion.</p>
<p>This is from the Government’s Sentencing Memorandum in <em>US v. Jane Kember and Mo Budlong</em>, US District Court for the District of Columbia, No. 78-401(2)&amp;(3):</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">These defendants [high executives in Hubbardite Scientology] rewarded criminal activities that ended in success and sternly rebuked those that failed. The standards of human conduct embodied in such practices represent no less than the absolute perversion of any known ethical value system. In view of this, it defies the imagination that these defendants have the unmitigated audacity to seek to defend their actions in the name of “religion.” That these defendants now attempt to hide behind the sacred principles of freedom of religion, freedom of speech and the right to privacy — which principles they repeatedly demonstrated a willingness to violate with impunity — adds insult to the injuries which they have inflicted on every element of society. These defendants, their co-conspirators, their organization, and any other individual or group that might consider committing similar crimes, must be given a clear and convincing message: criminal activities of the types engaged in here shall not be tolerated by our society.<br />

<p>Between 1980, when the Government filed its sentencing memorandum, and 1993, when it granted the Miscavigeites tax exemption and US Federal protection, it blew off its own clear and convincing message. That message is still clear and convincing today. The USICers all know the message, all know it’s clear, and all know no more convincing is needed. This is a message that will be true until its need is gone: criminal activities of the types engaged in here shall not be tolerated by our society. Our society, it can be observed, is being programed, or at least bombarded, with the notion that unreserved tolerance is an apex virtue, and, correspondingly, that intolerance of anything other than intolerance is intolerable. How can super tolerance be more emphatically demonstrated, than by tolerance of the intolerable.</p>
<p>Myrotvorets, the SBU, the GUR, the USIC, and their assets for this purpose, all have capabilities, proclivities, and culpabilities for assassination. The Miscavigeite Scientologists have aligned themselves, and their collaborators, with this alliance. As prescribed in their scriptures, the Miscavigeites seek, ideally, to incite or hire others – not easily linkable persons or entities, ideally &#8212; to do their silencing or destroying, their black propaganda or the wetwork. They are, nevertheless, fully capable of silencing or destroying, i.e., assassinating their human targets themselves.</p>
<p>Before I left Scientology, its management structure, the “religion,” its control, I knew that my wife and I had to escape, which we did. I did not <em>ask</em> to leave and submit to the Hubbard regime’s control, and our incarceration. I assessed that because of what I experienced and knew, particularly about Hubbard personally, and because of my determination to not be submitted, the Hubbardites, would murder me, and maybe us. Miscavige was then the regime’s top enforcer and the sole conduit between Hubbard, who was in hiding, and the Scientology enterprise.</p>
<p>Since escaping, I have spoken up about my experiences and knowledge many times to many people, and the Miscavigeites have never ended their unholy crusade to silence or destroy me, nor eliminated the threat of assassination. As Justice closes in, as she does every day, the need of the unjust for injustice rises. Repentance is the wise way, but those who would silence or destroy God’s children, or pay millions to lawyers and PIs, and corrupt Free World courts, to silence or destroy us, are impossibly unwise. Murder is peerlessly stupid. Wisdom is the way out for all Scientologists, in fact for murderers from every cult or country.</p>
<p>The basic purpose of black propaganda is to pave the way for silencing or destroying or murdering the designated human enemy target, like me. Hubbard spelled out in a scriptural edict he titled “Battle Tactics” his orders to his troops for “handling” us:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #008000;">The prize is &#8220;public opinion&#8221; where press is concerned. The only safe public opinion to head for is they love us and are in a frenzy of hate against the enemy. This means standard wartime propaganda is what one is doing, complete with atrocity, war crimes trials, the lot. Know the mores of your public opinion, what they hate. That&#8217;s the enemy. What they love. That&#8217;s you.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #008000;">You preserve the image or increase it of your own troops and degrade the image of the enemy to beast level.</span></p>
<p>That’s the attitude and modus operandi in the AACists’ program publicly accusing me of being a cause of signal significance of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. They named and accused a simple soul from Chilliwack, British Columbia, along with one other named living soul, who is my friend, above billions of other people, some of whom really did desire and provoke and even profit monstrously from it all, the hate and death and war. Now the AAC’s AnonEF op project the black PR that I condone atrocities, war crimes the lot supposedly committed in the war that I supposedly provoked. Someone, whose image has been degraded to beast level, gets his assassin a medal.</p>
<p>There’s more to say about this book deal when I can.</p>
<p>Funny, 2024 will be forty years since the trial before Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Paul G. Breckenridge, Jr. in the Scientology cultists’ first lawsuit against me. That case was all about the L. Ron Hubbard biography undertaken by Omar V. Garrison. I was Hubbard’s “Biography Researcher” and Garrison’s “Research Assistant.” That’s a long story. For forty years, although the Miscavigites had an “L. Ron Hubbard Biographer” on post all those years, they have not published a biography of L. Ron Hubbard, principally because of the gargantuan stack of lies he told. Many of those notable lies came out in the LA trial. And here they or their collaborators are about to publish this <em>Gerry Armstrong Book.</em> Humor among the horrors.</p>
