Also watch this movie, based on Lawrence Wright's book https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Going_Clear_(book)
or read the book which is also one of the best books about Scientology.

free on youtube! but I have Premium. It's such a good movie I think I'll watch it again today.

the humiliation and degradation of the cult members by L Ron Hubbard and David Miscavage in Scientology is completely off the charts. If there weren't so many people who lived through it to tell the story, you almost wouldn't believe it actually happened.

totally tracks that krasnov is that kind of so-called leader. It also confirms that maga is a destructive cult.
