My guess, is so they can do a photo session showing their cult “helping” with disaster relief. This is a common thing for them. Then they show the photos to their own members during circle jerks to convince themselves that they’re doing good for the world. This in turn gets their members to pay more into the cult because they’re gullible enough to believe this shit.
Yeah, when her cult started telling her how our relationship should operate. I told her to get out of my house if she’s going to comply with them instead of our own desires. I should have bailed way sooner though. She was pretty fuckin hot tho 😅
We had met within the BDSM lifestyle as a Dom/submissive. She also had another guy in addition to me. All three of us got along fine, everything was consensual etc.
She was dabbling in scientology at the time but only just starting. The cult tells it’s new members they’re cool with everybody and everything. It’s not till they’ve got someone hooked that they start directing them towards a vanilla, heterosexual and monogamous relationship with no kids. Even then, they don’t say so to their face. It’s done through manipulation.
Thanks for your insight. The biggest surprise to me is they discourage their members from having kids. Don’t (nearly?) all cults/religions encourage their members to be fruitful and multiply because the easiest way to get someone into their stuff is through their parents? Weird.
Scientology is more about short term financial gains than head count. They encourage/train their members to have profitable careers. Having children makes it difficult to focus on running a business etc. The more money you make, the more money the cult can get out of you.
They just have to keep recruiting more people, so the long term survival would be predicated on the expectation that they won’t ever recruit enough to starve their own supply. If they did reach that point, they’d probably change their policies.
But I don’t think grifters care about the long term anyway. If they can make enough bank in the short term, they don’t need to develop a sustainable strategy for what happens if their cash cow eventually hits the growth limit or starts reversing.
It was fun for awhile but when she started going further down the rabbit hole I wish I had broken things off instead of sticking it out further. Things only ever got worse for our relationship once she decided to pursue going clear.

It’s a solid source in fairness. At least you got out.
You got out, right? Blink twice if they still have you.

What did they want you to change?

I feel like that’s a very short sighted way to run a cult/religion, but you can’t argue with success. They seem to be growing just fine.

Was it worth it though? Thank you for your service.
