Snore...

Question answered by FreeZone in Scientology

Mr_Rogers asked this question on 10/6/2000:

Doesn't it seem that the people on this board against Scientology are really boring? Suppress means to squash or make nothing of. This is definitely the only action (fruitless) of the anti-scientologists here, but they are so bombastic and self-important that you know they really don't have any sense and are more like a peanut crowd. They are probably paid by the federal government to fund their hopeless addictions or writhing or something, you know? But to assume that they have any credibility is really laughable. And they are boring. Doesn't everyone agree?

What are you trying to accomplish here? Per LRH, the anti-social personality "speaks only in very broad generalities... deals mainly in bad news, critical or hostile remarks, invalidation and general suppression." (HCO PL 27 Sept 1966, The Antisocial Personality, the Anti-Scientologist) You start off with a broad generality and you generate an immediate ARC break with your audience. You wander through some more vague generalities that don't have a thing to do with specific people or specific claims before lapsing at the end into total incoherence. (What on earth is a 'peanut crowd'?) And incidentally, your claim that you find this board insignificant would be more persuasive if you were less busy trying to disrupt and attack it.

Flunk. "NEVER USE LIES IN PR." (HCO PL 13 Aug 1970, PR Series 2, The Missing Ingredient) This claim is so bizarre, and so obviously a generality, that I doubt even you believe it. And how likely is it that anyone in your audience is going to be more ignorant and gullible than you?

You still seem to be frantic about 'them', whoever 'they' are. "This is natural to [antisocial individuals] since to them all society is a large hostile generality, against the antisocial in particular." (HOC PL 27 Sep 1966, op. cit.) But you haven't established anything about 'them' except that they have reduced you to a state of frantic irrationality. Which doen't seem to be hard to do. "Helping others is an activity which drives the antisocial personality nearly berserk. (ibid)

> Doesn't everyone agree?

"SPs tend to vanish in memory since they speak in generalities. 'Always', 'every one' salt their language so that... in tracing a rumor, it is hard to remember since 'everyone' seems to have said it. Actually, the SP who did say it used 'everyone' in his comm so often as to become in memory 'everyone.'" (HCO PL 15 Aug 1967, Discipline - SPs and Admin - How Statistics Crash) Note that this trick only works when performed with an adroitness and subtlety you fail to display.

Overall, this is way beyond an overt product. You should continue to read the askme.com Scientology board, since it rasies your tone to boredom, substantially above your normal level of hate. However, stop writing to it until you have completed the following repair program:

Hey, Fruitzone:

Any one knows you're not interested in the work of L Ron Hubbard.

You can't give flunks. If anything you can only say you're a squirrel.

It's doubtful you have ever helped anybody.

I don't know what you are citing- you would make very sure to never credit L. Ron Hubbard for his work.

What a faux person. Like anyone would actually believe you would do real Scientology.
