It’s Never a Bad Day for a Good Smear ~~ Mike Rinder ~~ important post February 8, 2024

Well.....lay down with dogs and get up with fleas......

Everyone knows what this infers. It is a blatant slur on the "status" of one group.....and positions the speaker as "better than....."

It infers a class of people that are not to be associated with.... That bring trouble to one...

In its basic form.....it is a slur on a class of people....a type of people....

Or one could also take it as a bit of "wisdom..." for sure... A warning....

But for sure it is not a pleasant comment for the Aftermath Foundation to have put out .....IMO

It is divisive...

And we are seeing the result of that divisiveness now....

WoW! Aaron's vid going on currently.

It is really amazing his following.....and all the live comments and accolades coming in. He has a huge audience.

This disagreement is way to complicated for me to follow....but getting some good info.

Personally I see some of the friction is coming from the respective different genres....

On one side are those that are writing books....doing movies / documentaries / being expert witnesses...that qualify to be selected for Mass Media broadcasts......such as 60 minutes Australia.....and such. This form of information has a certain type of viewer. Perhaps it could be called more socially accepted....more "academic..." I get that the Aftermath Foundation wants to stay in this zone....

Aaron and other YouTube Vloggers are a brand new genre....
My understanding is to have a "monetized" YouTube channel.....one must do at least one video per day...if not more.
This means a constant presence on YouTube...and other outlets that have this sort of style...
This means many Vloggers that are not going to have the "credentials" of a more professional "entertainment" or "Hollywood" style...." or perhaps better said a Professional Foundation non-profit style "look..."

These current Protestors around the US and England that are doing a "1st Amendment" style approach to content....are as far as I know or get....are not to the liking of "the Aftermath Foundation...."

Perhaps the Aftermath Foundation in embarrassed of them.... It skews the work they have done to establish their place in the pecking order....to Attention.... The some in the Aftermath Foundation is EMBARRASSED at Aaron's Style....

It tarnishes the "polished approach" that they have ...? It tarnished their "name?"

They are two completely different approaches.....and perhaps never the twain shall meet....

That is just how it goes....?

Some SP Warriors (YouTubers and TikToker's Ex Scientologists / Ex Sea Org and staff were insulted again by Mike Rinder last blog post
Using terms like "Smear Campaign" and having a funny little rabbit picture along with his insulting comments "Keyboard Warriors" & "Dog and Fleas" contributed to this motion of fueling the flames, refusing to not communticate therefore not resolving....
I highly recommend those that have not seen it - watch the interview with Miriam Francis on YouTube "Down the Rabbit Hole News" with Rabbit (Alex). Watch Mike Brown's latest video.

The Aftermath Foundation needs to stop worrying about image
That’s Scientology! That's being culty!

IMO, The Aftermath Foundation is run by several ex high ranking Scientology officials who MANAGED SCIENTOLOGY’S IMAGE when they were in and people were seriously harmed by that activity. Those people can’t help it - they were pre programmed with l Ron Hubbard’s tech to attack, never defend and stop communicating and get others to stop communicated. They are programmed to behave a certain way. If they haven’t deprogrammed…the pre programmed solutions rear their ugly heads They are not bad people - they just have held down 7’s.

The Aftermath Foundation is there to provide help to those leaving Scientology or have left and
experiencing pain and suffering. If they ask for help - help them.

Mike Rinder may want to consider a paridigm shift...try communicating with people as this actually works
It brings people together.
